The first photo is the School-Trip at Taubman Museum. I join the summer internship 2016, it memorized the director of Education department to guide the students wandering in the museum. It is different than the expreince learning in classroom, appreciate the artworks and know the story and history at the back.

Comment on Dream Team by Yang Liu
Agree. As we can imagine how tough work the professors face if they plan to add the interactive part during the class. Design a game for a specific area is cooperation teamwork. For an instant, in the team, basically need a graphic designer, 3-D designer, coding people, professor in the class. The need group students to do the testing. Conservatively, it should be organised 1 year advanced before the class starting. The schedule is the biggest challenge for the team member. Also, we need to think about sponser. It is a challenge, also, it is a future.
Comment on Learning in 2006 vs 2016 by Yang Liu
Congratulation! you are so brave to face the challenge. I experienced the similar situation at the first semester at Tech. During the first meeting with the director of our major, he noticed that the coding course is one of the compulsory course in creative technology major. When I hear that I almost cry. I told him ” you would ask a fine art student work in coding section”. But, with his encouragement, I add in that class. Finally, I understand it is a new language to present the ideas and concepts. I think it is the true life, we are growing without expectation.
Comment on My favorite (digital) things by Yang Liu
Thanks for the sharing channel. The website I always visit is http://www.lynda.com, which is free to access the web and watch a lot of tutorial video. It is a great web for the self-teaching. Typing the name of the program you want to learn then there are series of playlist show. You would choose the learning level and find the comfortable the video to follow.
Comment on Sorry, No Internet Today! by Yang Liu
As I know, digital technology is a tool in learning. It will affect our study life but will not instead of traditional educational experience. If the students who have already attended the online class, they will realise that face-to face communication is still necessary during the process of learning and teaching. The digital technology offers different blueprint in class, which depends on the variety of majors. Thus, the traditional study way and digital technology learning method are paralleled tools to obtain acknowledge.
Comment on Learning with Blogs: Easy but not Sweet by Yang Liu
Agree! Sometimes, Blog as an “inside kingdom” to records the process and/or the concepts and thought. The responsibility of blog is different than that of reference books. The blog is a space that individuals states personal comments or write some key works from others.
Comment on Where does learning truly happen? by Yang Liu
In my opinion, learning in the classroom and outside classroom are two different methods to obtain the acknowledge. In the classroom, most of the students follow the sckedule of the teacher organised. The teach will push us. It is good for the primary level. But, the outside classroom learning is more important for advanced level study. Based the primary educational experience, the student needs to narrative down the research area and schedule the study plan.This is a challenge for the higher education, which focuses on the ability to learn not just gains from teachers.

Comment on Week 1: From fine artist to digital designer by Yang Liu
Hi Amy, Thanks.
Unfortunatey I counldn’t find the original link of the blog about Daan Roosegaarde in 2013. But I remember the blog is an introduction to his Smart Highway project. (https://www.designboom.com/technology/smart-highway-by-daan-roosegaarde-wins-index-award-2013/)
I knwo this project when I studied at London 2013. When I work for Beijing Design Week as the program manager after I graduated. Daan Roosegaarde is one of the guest speakers of Beijing Design Forum. His amazing thoughs inspired me to explore the digital art world.
