[REFELCTION] How important the skills of gathering and sharing information effectively is.

This semester was mainly about finding a topic to research about and gather information, as well as sharing the information with others through an essay. I would like to write briefly about what I think about "how" it is important to have these skills in the future.

In the world today, it is reasonable to consider the internet as our major platform for gathering information. When we see documents and essays by others, we can almost always see from the works cited, that most of the sources are from the internet (webpage, article and etc.). Moreover, the world today is centered around not just the internet, but all informational platforms. Since the breakthrough of the informational revolution within our world, the value of an individuals information has decreased, and the need for information from multiple sources has been common for many tasks. As we can see from the changes of our world, the ability to gather information has become more valuable in the world today. Furthermore, the next revolution is highly likely to be a "knowledge revolution". Therefore, we must be able to have the ability to "process gathered information and output the information in a custom way (like essays) effectively. The reason why is maybe simply because: "we are not a robot".

[IDEAS] Two Types of Slide Designs

I believe that there are two types of designs for slideshows. The first design, is based on making each slide simple with images and minimum text. This method gives the viewers static image on what the speaker is talking about. The second design method I use is the "Material UI Design". Since it is a UI design, the whole design interacts to the users with geometrical and photographic elements animated and placed according to a layout. (the layout guidelines are set by Google). For example, if you were to tell a user about a new feature, this is what Material UI Design will solve the task: https://storage.googleapis.com/material-design/publish/material_v_12/assets/0B4kv-3uZbS1qQVhNbFlVdlNsOEE/engagement-featurediscovery-single-flow.mp4
