Ben Koo commented on Brian Kim's blog post Have you ever tried to do something but failed and NEVER tried again? There might be a solution..
"Brian:   Interesting article. However, the key is not whether the instructor of yours is right or wrong. It is about whether you spend more efforts in developing yourself. Cheers, Ben"

學習流體力學的啓發與相關網站

Toyhouse@Taiwan的朋友們:

  請參考下列幾個網站的內容。在前面的四次活動中,我們已經涵蓋了許多自然科學的內容。但是,我發現,大部分參與者在表達個人經驗以及展示群體創作成果時,好像還沒有意識到這些內容的相關性。例如, Bernoulli Principle 可以用電壓或圖表的方式來理解。Bernoulli Principle 也就是動能,位能,與勢能(壓力)三者相互轉換與總量守恆的原理。這個概念基本上貫穿大多數的物理定律。而表達這些想法的方式則各有千秋,例如以下網站的動畫展示:…

Hi, Ben, here's the episode i mentioned in ur Thu. class, the title is "200 countries, 200 years in 4 minutes", a bit more fascinating than the TED one,  url as below:

http://www.schooltube.com/video/7e13116b078f1b661e7d/Hans-Roslings-200-Countries-200-Years-4-Minutes-The-Joy-of-Stats-BBC-Four

originally published on BBC Four, Dec, 2010.

And this man, Hans Rosling is a stastics nerd, made a series like this both on BBC and TED.
