"# Collaboration is over used and mis-used and is becoming a buzzword for business people and technologists alike # Collaboration isn’t the same as cooperation or coordination - each have different processes, practices and depth of engagement # Collaboration is a human process – throwing technology at people won’t magically/automatically create collaboration # Meaningful, productive collaboration won’t happen without mutuality of desired outcomes, shared values of transparency and information sharing, compassion, compromise # Collaboration implies that "the needs of the many, outweigh the needs of the few or the needs of the one" and sometimes people aren’t really interested in living by that principle # Collaboration isn’t always the best process # Collaboration is not equal to Web 2.0 # Collaboration can be a source of real value in the face of complex environments and situations where no single person has the right answer"

"目前台灣內部反對開放陸生來台,最主要的論述在於,擔心大陸學生來台就學,會稀釋台灣高等教育的資源。針對這樣的觀點,一名來自南京的大陸學生在座談會上,就主動舉手反駁說,台灣的高教資源的確很豐富,圖書館內有許多很好的外文書,在大陸要排隊才能借得到,但是這些書籍台灣學生卻很少借閱,大多都放在圖書館的架子上積灰塵;除此之外,學校也買了很多授權軟件供學生免費下載,但卻很少有人利用,因此他認為,陸生來台非但不會稀釋資源,反而會讓這些資源得到很好的利用。"
