basi's Scrapbox

• This is a Page in the Format of Adding Information on Top.
• It’s a discussion about how it would be convenient to have a Scrapbox for overseas university information in Basi.

• Challenges that come to mind:

  • When a lot of information is added, the occurrence of Q&A decreases.
    • So,
    • ① Communication within the basi community decreases.
    • ② It becomes difficult to create an atmosphere where it is easy to ask questions.
  • Also, I think the credibility of information is difficult.
    • Handling rumors and information that is “commonly said” seems difficult.
      • If all rough rumors are allowed, it will increase garbage.
      • But if all rumors are rejected, the threshold for posting will be higher.
        • Adding information would require a source for everything.
    • There are many tips in essays that are difficult to prove.
      • It seems difficult to decide how to handle that.
      • Especially for debatable things.
        • Whether to read existing essays or not.
        • Oh, but if there is a place where both sides of the argument are written, it would be very beneficial.
          • If both sides of the argument are written on the page Whether to read existing essays or not, I can consider without bias and make my own choice.
          • (I thought of this when I saw the search function of 未踏Jr2021)
  • Complexity of the tool.
    • The problem of whether what worked well in the past can be reproduced in the case of “未踏Jr”.
  • Is there any meaning in creating a place for gathering miscellaneous tips?
    • There is already a lot of information on Reddit and other platforms.
    • Is there a meaning in adding more information…?
      • It is also important to refer to existing information.
    • I feel like my Record Addiction is coming out a bit.
      • It’s a waste that even though so much information is gathered in the basi Q&A, it is not passed on to the next year!
        • The problem is the feeling of “waste”.
        • (Whether it is really meaningful is unclear)

• It seems to go well with Helpfeel.

  • If there is a comprehensive Helpfeel for US university entrance exams.
  • Well, it seems better to see it on the WiKi to read a lot of related information.

• AO Gijuku’s Scrapbox usage example that supports students with 500 new pages of wisdom every month -#use at work

  • In the field of education, in addition to knowledge and know-how about AO entrance exams and teaching methods, there are cases where records of interviews with students are recorded as student records. Basically, we ask the sherpa to accumulate as much knowledge as possible in Scrapbox so that past knowledge can be utilized.

  • If you create it, it seems good to share 8 as well.

• 未踏Jr Platform seems to be useful for reference.

• Issues I personally had while doing it in 202107 (blu3mo)
  • It’s troublesome to separate my own unique stories from general ones.
    • It’s difficult to refer to the contents of /blu3mo in /foreignuniv.
  • I think the collected information is generally useful, but it’s a waste that I can’t make it public.
    • I can’t make it public because it includes basi slides, etc.
• Since it seems difficult to spread the word right away, I went back to the operation of putting information in /blu3mo for now.
  • It seems interesting to do it when I become a mentor next year, etc.

It seems possible to use Scrapbox in Atelier Basi.

• I think it would be very convenient if it is used well.

  • But the threshold for that is high.
  • Since there are no heavy users on the management side, I don’t think it can be introduced all at once.
    • There are two Mitou Jr-ers on the mentor side, so they can convey the image of /mitoujr2021 to some extent.

• So, for now, I will create a Scrapbox like a wiki for applying to overseas universities and operate it alone for a while.

  • If you’re interested, please join (blu3mo) ((rickshinmi)).
    • Let’s do it (rickshinmi) (kaya) (fuka) if possible.
  • Summarize university application information.
  • Copy the questions and answers from the#advice slack channel.- (I think this is a good move even for Undiscovered Jr. to gather information)

• Summarize tips for essays.

• If it is reasonably enriched, why not invite others to participate in editing?

• Using Scrapbox as a platform for discussion/communication, like Undiscovered Jr, seems to be a high hurdle.

• For now, let’s use Scrapbox simply as a wiki.

• Rick thinks that Scrapbox is an ideal tool for self-analysis because it allows you to easily release everything in your mind (rickshinmi).

• I completely agree with that (blu3mo).

• It is possible to output what is in the brain as it is.

• However, it doesn’t seem to be a simple tool that everyone can use to output what’s in their brain (?).

• As for the purpose of self-analysis, I would like to recommend using a personal Scrapbox separately.

• It would be a good place to include detailed profiles of mentors (rickshinmi).

• (I understand) (blu3mo).

• Self-introduction is good for a wiki (nishio).

• Undiscovered Jr. 2021 Boost Meeting (nishio)

  • nishio I think it is necessary to clearly convey the benefits of using Scrapbox to the users, which is “writing self-introduction and linking to connect with various people.”

  • I want both Teramoto-san and I to experience that it gets better as more information accumulates, but it cannot be realized at the current stage.
