"Heights & Depths: A Response -- Sosuke Fukushiima"

Write a post in which your respond to the article -- Heights & Depths. Do you think it is important that humankind pushes the limits either "upwards to the stars" or "downwards to the ocean floor" or both? How might doing so improve our lot? On the contrary, if you don't think such exploration is a good idea, where do you think funds could be more usefully directed? 

Title your post "Heights & Depths: A Response -- Your Name", and illustrate it with a relevant image. In addition, in your post try to incorporate some of the verb-noun and adverb-adjective collocations we explored in class

Personally, it is crucial for humankind to persuit both space and deep ocean. First of all, our curiosity is unstopable toward the unknown. It is inevitable for human to give up persueing ambition. Therefore, it's blindingly obvious that there're people who realise a dream to satisfy  your curiosity.

    You made a good point that it is crucial for human to pursuit further exploration for both into the space and explore down in the ocean because by doing so we can study a completely different environment, atmosphere, resources and different types of living species.

A Response to Professor Nancy Longnecker's Talk -- Iza

I enjoyed Nancy Longnecker's lecture because I could relate to her and the subject on many levels. The way she was conveying the content seemed casual, and I appreciated her humor. I feel like one of the main points she tried to bring across was that science communication is its own field and cannot be equated with just being a scientist who knows how to communicate. According to her, this way of thinking might have led to the programme being let go for a period of time before it was reinstated. Science communication can aid in conveying scientific findings to the general public and can really benefit the everyday lives of people. The points that resonated the most with me were closely related to marketing and psychology. For instance, being aware of your own objective for communicating (to raise awareness, educate, change behaviour, or change policy), while also being mindful of who your audience is. A common flaw in science communication relates to a common psychological fallacy ...

Regarding Nancy Longnecker’s talk, I found it is really imperative that whether others have concern or not is revealed after listening to their thoughts or values and respecting their point of view, because basically we all have different backgrounds and perspectives. For example, I've met a lot of people who have different ways of walking through this studying abroad, but if I judged books by their covers, I definitely couldn't belong in any communities and wouldn't make friends in NZ.  In terms of communication in the future, I think it's likely to be bleak because of the indistinguishable footage or images generated by AI.  I think the fine line between real and fake is getting thinner and thinner these days and it will be completely impossible to tell them from apart in a decade. Then, what we need is the capacity to research by ourselves to find facts and accurate information. My favourite words in the lecture were "People get attracted to contents...
