                                             Life is what we make it!

     Are you dissatisfied with today’s success? It is the harvest from yesterday’s sowing. Do you dream of a golden tomorrow? You will reap what you are sowing today. We get out of life just what we put into it.

     Nature takes on our moods: she laughs with those who laugh and weeps with those who weep. If we rejoice and are glad the very birds sing more sweetly, the woods and streams murmur our song.  But if we are sad and sorrowful a sudden gloom falls upon the nature’s face; The sunshine, but not in our hearts, the birds sing, but not to us.

     The future will be just what we make it. Our purpose will give it its character. One’s resolution is one’s prophecy. Leave all your discouraging pessimism behind. Do not prophesy evil, but good. Men of hope come to the front.

resolution : n 坚定;坚毅;决定;决心;

prophecy : n 预言;预言能力

prophecy: v 预告未来

rejoice : (使)欣喜,(使)高兴,喜悦

 
Given that there is a prevalent trend of UK student’s Absenteeism and disengagement, we intend to develop an AI-powered learning and engagement platform. This platform integrates AI algorithms, immersive learning technologies, and campus life linkage to transform passive "dorm internet browsing" into active "personalized learning engagement". Firstly, we set a detailed registration process to collect multi-dimensional data, including academic performance, interest tags, learning habits, and dorm internet behavior. Then we delivered these information to an AI agent which can help us to generate a 3D”learning portrait” and tailored suggestions to improve each student’s behaviors. Secondly, based on what data we’ve acquired, we designed a interested-linked course customization workflow, by using AI to map classroom knowledge pointing to students' interests. For example, if a student likes e-sports, the platform embeds statistics knowledge into kinds of "e-sports match data analysis" tasks; for students interested in fashion, it connects art history course content to kinds of "19th-century fashion trend evolution". Thirdly, we made a dorm-to-classroom linkage mechanism. By using a general thought to make ”Learning progress + Campus incentive” system, we give away different coupons like a discounted coffee or a free campus cultural and creative products to encourage those who take their presence in the off-line classes. We can also use peer motivation to boost presence by using student’s basic information to match those who are like-minded to form a group. In the group everyone should take part in off-line courses and complete homework or other learning materials to gain “Group Coins” which can be used to buy things. It deserves to be noticed that we also designed that students can use “Group Coins” to win for an opportunity to hold an activity in the school to broadcast or perform out their interest publicly, which can also make the campus and school life more attractive and fruitful. Last but not least, given that students may all be addicted to the Internet to some extent, we should set up a barrier to limit their usage of some entertaining apps like Twitter or Tiktok in our platform. When distraction is detected, the platform will send a gentle reminder using a tempting message like ’your e-sports task has new information, want you check it now? ’. It will push “micro-learning content” related to students’ interests to redirect students from aimless browsing to learning. b) User Benefits Our proposed AI solution is designed to fundamentally improve our university learning experience by moving beyond generic resources and providing truly personalized learning materials. The primary benefit we gain is a significant increase in efficiency and study effectiveness, as the AI analyzes our individual performance—identifying our unique strengths and areas for improvement—and precisely curates study pathways that are perfectly tailored to our needs. This means we stop wasting our valuable time reviewing concepts we already understand and instead focus our energy on challenging topics, leading directly to a deeper understanding and better academic results. The value it brings is an adaptive, supportive learning experience that feels less overwhelming; it acts like an intelligent study assistant, providing immediate and targeted feedback on our practice work and instantly sourcing relevant supplementary materials, which helps us correct mistakes and reinforce learning quickly, ensuring our study time is maximized for genuine, confident success. c) Novelty and Innovation It is the trend that combine AI tools with other powerful tools, and this is why I and my group members direct our attention to the AI tools. Back to the problem itself, students absent school and disengage their course are caused by the conflict between what way they want use to success and the exam-driven model schools use. AI has the nature advantage in personalized. So the tool we designed fully use the quality of its strong power in individuation, which different from the impersonality and tough ways existing approach uses. When user log the data about a specific pupil, our tool will deeply analyses and work out a program tailored for the pupil, based on what he/she likes and what jobs he/she wants to do. Nobody indulge in the Internet actively, when pupils feel lonely and confused, they seek a place to escape. When we help them find the meaning of life and help them get the skills they need, there’s no reason to abuse the internet. Also, our tool could used by schools, which help schools change their teaching models, and help to change the situation of absenteeism and disengagement.一共多少个字

can you explain this in chinese as much as you can:Hello everyone. Today I'm going to give you all example of data, so remember we're talking about data understanding. When you have a dataset, what do we do? You want to be able to describe the dataset and analyze the dataset so you understand what data you're working with. I'm going to use one example, so this is about air quality sensing. We work on a project. This is base is just for mobile air quality sensing. The motivation is that while there are actually air quality monitoring stations in most areas, but those are limited. For example, you usually get a dozen in a urban area. It's very limited, so if you consider individually, we go to different places, we go to different rooms. I care more about my neighboring area, so what air quality I'm subject or air pollution I'm subject to. In this particular project, so what we did was that well developed sensing device, and that actually then would be coupled with your mobile phone so that we can collect various air pollutant information gets used, send it to the mobile phone, and then send to the Cloud server so you can do further analysis. So from the data side. We say this is the air quality data , air quality sensing. That's the dataset, it's air quality sensing data. But what are the things I can describe? If you're say, if I'm attending your like, I have this dataset. Will it be the immediate questions you want to ask? Starting point, of course, is that well depending, not in particular order, of course, winds that the size. But there are different ways to ask about it. Size is about okay. How many sensors by per device, also how many users, and also how long? So that was the duration of the study. Also you can get your bit area. To answer this particular question, so for example, like we have, I think on every device you will have sensors for CO, CO2, the max, and then ozone, and also we have temperature, humidity, and those other. You want to be able to specify the specific types of sensors, and then users, since those devices are mobile devices, they're being carried by users. In our study, we had, was 20-30 different users, so they're carrying those devices. We did that over about a half year, so actually have data coming from those users, from those sensing devices for that time duration. We also did some event specific like monitoring is there are certain events happening in certain areas, so we actually did a few more narrowed foot crossed data collection there. The area of course they'll say, Are you talking about say I'm in Boulder. We actually did that and mostly in Boulder but also had a couple of students take the devices. They were riding the bus ride to Denver and also to the airport, and also to a shopping mall. That's basically just understanding about what data being collected, and you can also ask a little bit more about how the data were collected. That's generally the size or the scale. Now of course, when you get to the specifics, will say what your data understanding, is that, what's the norm, what's the potential distribution, the dispersion, and also any extreme values, so this really gets to some of those statistical part. Your statistics you can do basically can look at each with individual readings. You can say that if I take all the CO2 readings, I can then have some way of calculating the average, the mean value, the standard deviation. I can plot the overall distribution and I can actually even show you whether what the normal ranges are here they look okay and they are generally below the threshold, based on the Environmental Protection Agency, or you actually see some extremely high values. That's with CO2. We are concerned if we are above the safety threshold. You're also looking at higher values that are extreme, so those can of course easily plotted. We'll talk about a few visualization capabilities, so that would allow you to plot. You can use a single-line box plot is actually very helpful in this case, where you can quickly show the distribution. Also, it's actually very harmful you want to compare. For example, I have different users or different locations, or different time periods. That actually would allow you to break apart your data and then be able to compare the statistics across different dimensions. That's what kind of data I have or what kind of statistics I can leverage. Then we covered rise of visualization. I'll put it in there. Think about how we can visualize your data, so you can allow you to have some good insights. Some further analysis, you can then plot it, visualization of satellite. You can do individual distribution or you can do some spatial temporal plotting in some comparative study. That's actually all very useful. I want to touch a little bit about also is part of the similarity part, or distance because that's important. As we have said in the class, when you have different objects, those objects are defined by those attributes. Then you want to have some way of identifying similarity or distance similarity. In this case where I will have the air quality sensor readings, so one natural question when you're talking about the similarities that, does it look similar or there's significant differences? Since I have multiple sensors, well, I remember we're talking about the different attributed types and then the different, like whether you have binary values or whether you have other information you can leverage. If you look at my sensors, so if I say my CO, CO_2, the NO_*, and then like ozone, and then you may have PM_2.5. As you can see, these are all numerical values, so you have this time series of those numerical values. But on top of that, you could have, say maybe different location. Then the other way I will also talk about temperature or humidity. I will say actually we also add not just the location, there's also more like the activity. This is actually related to your life. For example, if I'm riding a bus, like biking, riding bus, or I'm out running outdoors, or I'm just sleeping. As we can see, the different types of information, so we're talking about the similarity, I can see the numerical values you have some way with defining the closeness. Or in essence we care more about when they're above a certain threshold, you can quantify this into not just the actual value, can just maybe say 10% or higher above the threshold, 20% or higher, or how often, you can actually convert that into some kind of frequency. Then if you have the different activity, then you've actually grouped that by, remember we're talking about if it's a binary, the binary code encoding, could it be what category of value it can convert data into some binary just okay, you have to match exactly because I only care about the same type of activity because like riding bus is public and would be very different versus when sleeping. Those are all the information you need to consider as you're trying to decide on your similarity function or distance or calculations. Another important thing we talk about is that, remember we're saying like the weighted. The way to the decent calculation, that is actually very important angle because you want to make sure that as you're putting all this together, those attributes are not equal. You want to be able to tailor your similarity calculation or the decent calculation by identifying like say air pollutants data have more severe negative impact when they are above certain threshold. As you can see, even though they are a standard, distance of calculation or similarity calculation functions, you want to be able to understand your problem setting, understand the semantics of your data. Then I have a specific calculation, similarity function that is meaningful for your dataset and for your application scenario. Of course this is just one example, but hopefully that give you an idea about if you are being presented with a particular dataset, what kind of question do you ask or what are the specific things you can do in terms of analyzing data, understanding the potential like semantics, the challenges or issues, or knowledge you can learn on top of it. A particular, the similarity part we'll talk about is that because it's hard to give like say, just use this function and you'll be fine. Many times you need to do the reasoning is about, okay, what do I have? What [inaudible] do I have and what do I care about from my application? I have my calculations, that's more applicable format intended usage of scenarios. That's all. Thank you.

Do you like solving technical problems? Are you good at science and math? You might consider it becoming an engineer. Engineers are problem solvers who apply the theories and principles of science and mathematics to research and develop economical solutions to technical problems. Their work is the link between perceived social needs and commercial applications. However, it's always good to let students know what's ahead and help them understand how their choices may impact their life. Here we are providing the pros and cons of an engineering degree. Prose of an engineering degree. Engineering degrees usually dominate the best college degrees lists. It's a bit easier to get a job with an engineering degree than with a humanity's degree. Engineering jobs pay well and are more stable than most other careers. Also, there is a wide variety of job opportunities. If you like solving problems, then the right engineering job will keep you busily happy. You would finally know how things work in real life. You would finally learn the science or engineering behind all machines. You can design and implement your own creation. Engineers often escalate to management positions and earn excellent money over the life of their careers. If a career in research is interesting, an engineering degree can pave the way to further study. An understanding of high level math gives a greater understanding of the world around you. And application of this to real problems can be very satisfying. Abundant job opportunities worldwide. The world will always get more technically advanced, and will need more engineers. Cons of an engineering degree, the engineering coursework can be quite difficult. If you don't have the aptitude for it, then you might not be able to get through it. More time in school than an associates degree. Also, the cost for college will also be relatively high. Often, engineering students have very little opportunity to take business manufacturing, art or writing courses. The amount of stuff you learn at university is negligible to what you do in industry. In industry, you'll probably solve a problem that has never been encountered before. You need to keep learning new stuff to stay current in your field. The work can be stressful, especially when the equipment or structure has the potential to impact human life. Long work hours, it's hard to maintain a good work life balance in the initial phase of an engineering career, workload can be unpredictable and at times very high competitive atmosphere for promotion. Performance is perceived by superiors, determines one's ability to be promoted. Need to do a lot of hard work during studies and also after studies, until you get settled in a good job. Even after that, you have to continue to work hard to keep up with the latest technology. Studying never stops. Well, don't be scared. It is not that difficult as it looks to keep up with the latest technology. The bottom line is, you have to enjoy it. If you like tinkering with electronics, writing computer programs, designing buildings or taking apart engines, then you might enjoy being an engineer. It's a tough decision to make when you're young, but reach out and try to talk to some real engineers. If you're thinking about a career in engineering, it is much easier now with social media to contact people. Thank you for watching this video, and good luck for your career. 生成思维导图
