We have received many positive comments on [CHANGE, infectiously inspirational], the content was both broad and interesting and many enjoyed and were inspired by the presentations. I think we were able to show the advantages and value of a Gateway Education, I am proud of what EDGE has achieved.
Comment 2:
Many thanks to the EDGE team for putting on a very interesting programme. The interdisciplinary nature of the event was excellent. I learnt a lot from the other speakers as well as the participating audience. I do hope EDGE will continue with this series in the future.
Comment 3:
The CHANGE seminar organized by EDGE provides an interdisciplinary environment for people to share different views and perspectives. I wish there will be more of such seminars in the future to inspire colleagues and students.
Comment 4:
CHANGE was a spectacular event. The best teachers are those who are constantly learning. It was an honor to speak, and a real pleasure to hear fellow speakers present on topics ranging from the environment to the future of companies. A truly rare and exciting event!
Comment 5:
CHANGE was Interesting, Insightful, and Inspirational.
Comment 6:
It was a very stimulating event in which speakers raised issues or questions that we do not often ask. I hope this one day may have already started Changing things around us!
Comment 7:
The CHANGE Lectures fascinated me by their breadth and depth, opening my horizon and stimulating further enquiry. The Lectures also beautifully illustrated the multidisciplinary nature of today's challenges and endeavors.
Comment 8:
It's all too easy to get focused on our everyday work and forget that truly great things start from people who have the energy and commitment to share new ideas and innovations. Thanks very much to David and his team for helping to CHANGE the world for the better!
Question 1:
What is your comment on the [CHANGE, infectiously inspirational]
Lectures?
It is interesting and inspiring.
Very good.
It is a great opportunity to have the eminent professors in various fields to share their perspectives of the world.
The topic of lectures is very interesting. And the speakers have a very good presentation skills and most of them have a clear pronunciation.
Inspirational.
Question 2:
What is the best idea or topic from the lectures that you would like to further investigate or apply?
The best topic from the lectures would be social media.
The topic of Dr. Sun's lecture about innovation and culture is very impressive and interesting.
Lecture 5, 6, 8, and 9.
"Learn a language in 6 months"?! I guess I won't believe it if I don't practice it.
It would be " can human brain be fully simulated by a sophisticated computer?"
Topics concerning the human vision or brain are my favorite. The body of human is very complicated. How they acquire the sensation of color, when the vision of a baby is comparable with an adult, etc.
Question 3:
What should we do differently in the next EDGE Lecture series?
I suggest the next series can be on Connections.
Tell people more background of the speakers.
Question 4:
What is your feedback or suggestions on the overall arrangement and facilities?
The overall arrangement and facilities is fine.
Good.
The arrangement is friendly and professional.
The lecture room is very good.
Question 5:
What is your feedback or suggestions on the overall information and communication?
The communication and information are clear.
Excellent.
Good.
All speakers are great. Would be better if some of them can talk more about what they are currently doing or researching.
This kind of lecture series should be general, understandable to most people according to common knowledge. And it should not be very specific such as a research seminar.
Question 6:
Any other feedback or suggestions?
Maybe try to get more exposure outside of the academic world. IT is worth it!...
I love it. Hold more multi-disciplinary talks without compromising the quality.
