First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
--Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)
Too many tragedies have happened in this world. We should do something to solve these problems instead of sit back and watch others’ suffering. We are all connected in this world, and we can either be part of the problem or part of the solution.
In this project, I'll try to build my students' interests and skills to deal with these problems by using digital technology in their research. In other words, the more we know about each other, the less we are in conflict with each other. In order to lessen conflict among people, digital technology can contribute a lot to this.
