It may be the last time I post a blog for the ALES-204 class, but never be the last blog about communication, which has became a important topic in my life.
Before I taking this class, communication is a general idea, such as talking to someone else. I never think so much about the skill that I should use to make a perfect communication. For now, I will concentrate on every communication in my daily life. When I talk to my friends, the facial expression I use; When I have a interview, the speed of my speaking I should use; When I write a formal email, the format I should use; When I have a presentation, the way I talk to my audience I should use. I learnt more than those in this class, which makes me more confidence when I have any types of communication.
One more thing is the blog. I started this blog when I was in this class, it is a funny way to review what I learnt in this term. Meanwhile, every time I go to my classmates' blog, they all surprised me so much, they are so talented to design the profile.
C' est La Vie is the title of my blog, this is life here with ALES-204 and with my amazing friends, my cool ta MC, and my nice prof Jessi.

Get to Know Open Access
As a student in ALES-204, the communication class, I got a opportunity to get to know the "Open Access", which is a topic I would not to study about it on purpose.
By research, I got the idea that Open Access promotes to attain free peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature on the internet regardless of the copyright and licensing restrictions. Actually, we are using many kinds of open access as a resource almost everyday, especially we need to use Internet to get the information. One of the most popular one should be Wikipedia, Google and the one for Chinese, Baidu. Those are the common open access that we usually use to get all kinds of information, it is more convenient than reading books or newspaper.
However, during the research, besides the benefits, I found there are conflicts. One is because the resource from OP is free, so that many writer and publisher lost profits. Another one is that the accuracy of information is important, there should be some institutions to make sure people can get the correct resource. It is interesting for me because I never realize those points before even I use Internet everyday.
Another interesting thing I found that in China, government have build related program to make peer review the resource and make sure the accuracy. Meanwhile, there are existing some rules about using the OP properly.
Based on those information, I finished my scientific essay for ALES-204. Whatever the mark I got, the more important thing is that I know better about this field, which is much useful for me.
