#1 Introduction

Greetings! My name is Ivy. I'm from Taichung where the weather usually is nice.         I'm major in information management at National Taipei University of Business. In the past two years, I spent most of my time learning computer science because of my major.         I don't have a lot of interests, I usually swipe my phone in my free time. When I surf on the internet, I like to watch videos on Youtube and check my social network websites.         Wishing my English can make progress through the course is what I expect to myself this semester.

Modern China’s Foundations: The Manchus and the Qing Trailer Meet the Professors From Harvard It's quite a different experience in attending MOOCs. We can learn the lessons from a lot of universities even if we aren't their students. Moreover, we can have the certification after we finish the course, but we only have to watch the videos, we don't have to go to the class to join the course. We can have more source to learn and more convenient now.
