Presentation

学期临近尾声，我们的一些课程也到了最后的部分。我们这学期的《专家系统》一课从这周三和今天停课了，因为到最后讲的一些只是收集、商业系统之类的东西已经与我们的关系不大了。我们从下周一开始会有一周的时间，让每个听课的同学做一个关于一个专家系统的seminar，这两天停课正好让我们准备。

今天看到Robin Lu写的《KungFu Rails小记》，提到高橋征義也有去。而我在找会议录像的过程中，看到了放在土豆网上的高橋在台湾的演讲。我在YouTube上也找到了一份：

我之前没有听过高橋的演讲，但对所谓的“高橋法”则早有耳闻。我最早是从蔡智浩那里得知了高橋风格的，他写的一篇《以 OpenOffice.org Impress 實作「Lessig/Hardt/高橋」風格簡報提到了高橋风格，不过因为平时很少自己做幻灯片，当时我没有在意。后来在《计算机伦理》课上接触了Larry Lessig，才更深入的看了一下他们的幻灯片风格。在课上老师给我们播放了Larry在TED上的演讲，给我的印象很深刻：

Today Garson and I did a presentation in the listening class. Our instructor Dennis let us to listen an interview and give a presentation about what have the interview said about. There were several topic of interview that we could choose, and Garson and I choosed one about “The Size of Eggs and Sperm”.

Actually, I myself didn’t pay so much attention on the presentation. But I found a good way. I kept listening it if I took my iPod with me. So I knew a lot about the interview. And another result was I remember all the parts of the interview well. I didn’t watch my notes much when I gave the presentation.

This afternoon we had the second speaking presentation. This time was about interview. There were several topics we can choose and I choose the term “censorship”.

I have interviewed my homestay mother, Annette, but haven’t interview any other internetational students. Actually, I just interviewed myself as the second person. I didn’t prepare it very long. I just felt there was nothing to prepare.
