Project Manager: I think we can discuss a little about the the three kind of revolutionary things Tim came with The parental control the games and the voice recognition There is n not too much decision on that one so I think that parental control is a good function to to put in the remote I do not know how you think about it User Interface: Well I agree just put it in the menu structure somewhere Marketing: but What I see How I see it is you put it on the the remote and then you have like a Windows logon screen with parents children And w when you want to use the parents option you have to User Interface: It it has to be fast You do not want to to go down and watch the news at eight of the clock and turn it on and wait twenty seconds for for the logon screen and then remember your code and all kinds of settings Project Manager: No but I think most people find it much more important that their children do not watch sex or violence on the television and wait ten or fifteen seconds longer so they can finally watch it because of that User Interface: Mmhmm Why Mmhmm You c may use like when there is XP a simple logon d you just push one or two or three And if you push parents then Marketing: That then then then you have to go to threedigit login User Interface: To log in And if you puts a ye And if you w you push p children you do not have to log in but you can only watch childrens channels or Industrial Designer: I do not know if it is worth the time and effort we are going to spend on it Because well it is a simple function but it is going to take a lot of resources and a lot of time to programming it Because you will have to start working with the profiles and such And I am not sure if it is actually worth investing that much time and effort into it Project Manager: Well I think that is a b there is a big market for it Industrial Designer: I do not know what Project Manager: because you you read many times in magazines same kind of stuff and you heard on the news that that he they believe that children are influenced by the television and Well we are we are aiming to below forty years But there are a lot of people will below forty who have children in young age who who want to not watch violent or User Interface: Well maybe some idea on that Just make through a remote as it is but make an option to insert profiles because if my grandad would buy this remote he would not want to bother with all all the all the things to do Just make it an option in menu ins install powerful profiles or something Project Manager: That is a that is a better idea ? Marketing: w It just has to be w when it is deliver out of the store it has to be just simple and plain But if you want to install it personally If I got kids and I could choose between two remote controls One w with parent control and one without and I would would buy the one with User Interface: b well still some question I have about how to incorporate those ones You are thinking about some channels they can not see but well I I when I think oh for the f for all the standard channels and only for maybe after ten of the clock in the evening violent films and movies will come and maybe maybe some some timing will be needed instead of of channels because if you are watching I do not know you are in the at day cartoons will come up m on maybe Friday night I do not know Project Manager: maybe it can work with show view you you can control your video recorder with show view when you tick in a number it will start and end recording But maybe there is some option that that t the kind of show view numbers are violent and that they are blocked out User Interface: the disadvantage vantage is that someone will has to send all the showview numbers of the programs that they remotes and edit it all Marketing: but but that is not possible Industrial Designer: But well if you want to I i i if we in incorporate the parental control let us say we do and and well whatever cho child just goes up to the TV and presses up for instance Well nob nobodys stopping the child from well checking the channel User Interface: Well you could say if parental control is only it it will go from fourteen to sixteen with the pageup then but Industrial Designer: But that Well I am not sure because for that to happen you d you will have to receive a signal from the remote control so it would have to be constant constant signalling What m what may be better is to incorporate an a separate device that that you can program with the remote control And that provides parental control for instance And that is just an optional device So there is n that is there is besides the remote control you will have a separate Project Manager: I would not put it in an optional device That that then then then it becomes too much I think If we do it we we must do it in a kind of ways that like a profile a parent profile and a family profile and otherwise User Interface: on a separate menu option Marketing: And and you know w when you install another device children can still go up to the TV p pop open the thing and and and g Industrial Designer: that is true That is true but at same instant same happens when you have remote control So But only difference is the the people buying the remote control will now get the f added feature of parental control and those people would not necessary want it So you you would be Marketing: But it is just an an added feature feature Project Manager: And what do you guys think of the games in the voice recognition ? I personally think that that becomes too much It is more like it gets you to the functionality but User Interface: A mail too from management that it is very popular to use voice recon recognition But I do not think when you are watching TV hearing loud noises from the TV someone screaming one and you f the channel switches Marketing: like f voice recognition is too much I think But Industrial Designer: I can see games happening User Interface: W you can put it on chip anyway so As long as it is is not a primary feature of the remote Marketing: That that does not c that does not co that that does not cost a lot of extra resources I think Project Manager: So that will that that that must be in it you think ? So the games are in it The voice recognition are not And the parental control are Marketing: it is it is in it But too ma I I think so but User Interface: But how we do it ? Well I think also it is a good idea buts very difficult to incorporate So we should make it too complex Is t some menu function you choose parental control and maybe four files will emerge from menu where put it on But how how it is going to work will f be a problem Project Manager: but will there Like the first idea from You can buy it without and with parental contr control ? Or are we going to put it in and just User Interface: Mmhmm Well Ye I I think best would be to put it in and make it an menu option Marketing: to put it in always User Interface: And you can just s when you buy it you can select personal preference parental control on and the password or something Industrial Designer: Well I do not know I I figure if you had two different remotes you could bo choose one with well a receiver in it So you could actually easily build in parental control But it would would be more expensive So a and that that way you could make cheap model and a expensive model Could ma make the simple model and the deluxe model for instance User Interface: Oh it is a p Marketing: but TVs are not capable of sending ? I thought they were just Industrial Designer: you you have some TVs any Marketing: a able to receive some But Industrial Designer: That is true that is true User Interface: Well maybe you just have to restrict it to what programs where the parent says you can not watch channel seven nine and ten and you can not watch all channels after ten of the clock And there is just some little clock in the remote Industrial Designer: Well you could you could easily you could easily you could easily to the mote control But you still have the problem about the television itself User Interface: No no it is very simple There th I h I have seen some of remotes who have a clock in it So the remote does does not transmit when it is after twelve clock Marketing: at least my TV is a is a compartment which you can press And there are buttons behind it which you can use if you d if you do not if you do not have a User Interface: Well that is To put it very blunt that is not our problem Just have the parents buy some glue and It is not not a part of the remote Industrial Designer: that is true that is true you could you could you could go like User Interface: or make it ourselves very diffic Industrial Designer: that that would actually make things a lot more easy You could just blame it on television and make it their problem I figured I figure we could do that sure I am not sure what marketing thinks about it but Marketing: I have to consult my legal advisor about it Project Manager: So I think we have decided on the things that from Janus the energy the combination between battery and kinetic The case will be doublecurved and rubber in a fr flashy fruity colour that with cover is removable The buttons will be touchscreen but there may not be too many buttons And in the the menu structure there must not to be Five minutes to go too too many levels And it must be easy to use The parental control will be incorporated but it must be not too complex And the games are in it So I think we have we have decided Marketing: Oh Oh I I have one thing left the views Maybe it is handy to build in an expert view and a simple view Project Manager: Like a like a moat or s or something Marketing: Like at In the experts view you have a lot of more buttons Project Manager: but you have that in the User Interface: What I was thinking about is just a menu structure when you do not use it is simple And when you push system properties entire list pops up with e ev all kind of f stuff you can program Project Manager: It is already incorporated a little in that concept Industrial Designer: Well you you could actually build in a function that you can program it yourself for the more advanced users Marketing: wh which buttons you like or not Industrial Designer: which buttons do you want to in it Because you can you can like build in a backforward button and some po somebody would just want to watch two channels Marketing: Just leave the other numbers away Industrial Designer: you could you could m have people want want that Project Manager: We take it to the other meeting ? I have a little w little chat to do
Group mates agreed that they could incorporate the parental control as well as the gaming features into the remote control. However, they would discard the idea of voice recognition because it would be too much for the remote feature.

PhD C: I ve been playing with first the VAD so it s exactly the same approach but the features that the VAD neural network use are MFCC after noise compensation Oh I think I have the results Professor B: What was it using before ? PhD C: Before it was just P L PhD D: it was actually No Not I mean it was just the noisy features I guess PhD C: This is what we get after This So actually we here the features are noise compensated and there is also the LDA filter and then it s a pretty small neural network which use nine frames of of six features from C zero to C fives plus the first derivatives And it has one hundred hidden units PhD A: Is that nine frames you s centered around the current frame ? Or Professor B: S so I m I m sorry there s there s there s how many how many inputs ? PhD C: So it s twelve times nine Professor B: Twelve times nine inputs and a hundred hidden Two outputs OK So I guess about eleven thousand parameters which actually should not be a problem even in in small phones PhD A: So I m I m s so what is different between this and and what you PhD C: It should be OK So the previous syst It s based on the system that has a fifty three point sixty six percent improvement It s the same system The only thing that changed is the n a p eh a es the estimation of the silence probabilities Which now is based on cleaned features Professor B: And it s a l it s a lot better PhD C: So it s it s not bad but the problem is still that the latency is too large Professor B: What s the latency ? PhD C: Because the the latency of the VAD is two hundred and twenty milliseconds And the VAD is used i for on line normalization and it s used before the delta computation So if you add these components it goes t to a hundred and seventy right ? Professor B: I I m confused You started off with two twenty and you ended up with one seventy ? PhD C: With two an two hundred and seventy If if you add the c delta comp delta computation Professor B: So it s two twenty I the is this are these twenty millisecond frames ? Is that why ? Is it after downsampling ? or PhD C: The two twenty is one hundred milliseconds for the No it s forty milliseconds for t for the cleaning of the speech then there is the neural network which use nine frames So it adds forty milliseconds after that you have the filtering of the silence probabilities Which is a million filter it and it creates a one hundred milliseconds delay So PhD D: Plus there is a delta at the input PhD C: and there is the delta at the input which is Professor B: One hundred milliseconds for smoothing PhD D: It s like forty plus forty plus PhD C: Mmm Forty This forty plus twenty plus one hundred PhD D: So it s two hundred actually PhD C: there are twenty that comes from There is ten that comes from the LDA filters also Right ? so it s two hundred and ten PhD D: t If you are using three frames PhD C: so it s two twenty PhD D: If you are phrasing f comment using three frames it is thirty here for delta PhD C: I think it s it s five frames but PhD D: So five frames that s twenty OK so it s who un comment two hundred and ten Professor B: p Wait a minute It s forty forty for the for the cleaning of the speech forty for the I N ANN a hundred for the smoothing PhD D: At th nonvocalsound At the input I mean that s at the input to the net Professor B: Delta at input to net ? PhD D: So it s like s five six cepstrum plus delta at nine nine frames of Professor B: And then ten milliseconds for PhD D: Fi There s an LDA filter Professor B: ten milliseconds for LDA filter and t and ten another ten milliseconds you said for the frame ? PhD C: For the frame I guess I computed two twenty well it s I guess it s for the fr the Professor B: OK And then there s delta besides that ? PhD C: So this is the features that are used by our network and then afterwards you have to compute the delta on the main feature stream which is delta and double deltas which is fifty milliseconds Professor B: No I mean the after the noise part the forty the the other hundred and eighty Well I mean Wait a minute Some of this is is is in parallel is not it ? I mean the LDA Oh you have the LDA as part of the V D VAD ? Or PhD C: The VAD use LDA filtered features also Professor B: Ah So in that case there is not too much in parallel PhD C: No There is just downsampling upsampling and the LDA Professor B: so the delta at the end is how much ? PhD C: But well we could probably put the delta before on line normalization It should not that make a big difference PhD A: What if you used a smaller window for the delta ? Could that help a little bit ? I mean I guess there s a lot of things you could do to Professor B: So if you if you put the delta before the ana on line If then then it could go in parallel
The VAD neural net had twelve times nine inputs and two outputs. The system had improved significantly. It added some latency but the team could potentially run it in parallel.

Mr. Yves-Franois Blanchet: If the idea is so good and wonderful why not start over and open the dialogue now ? What is stopping the Prime Minister from being a rallying point and inviting us to take to each other and resolve the problem rather than saying that he is going to pack up his toys and go home ? The people with disabilities are the ones who will pay the price Where was the Prime Minister on October212019 ? He received a minority mandate from Quebeckers and Canadians Why is he behaving like something between a prime minister with a majority and a monarch by divine right ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: I have heard the Conservative Party and the Bloc Qubcois throw their accusations around They do not point out that the House of Commons did indeed give its consent to extend the mandate of the Special Committee on the COVID19 Pandemic until the end of June Three parties agreed which was the right thing to do in the context of this minority government We have been working with the other parties However as they did not get the results they wanted they complained Unfortunately they too are part of a minority Parliament and must respect the voice of the majority of parliamentarians just as we do Mr. Yves-Franois Blanchet: I might have been tempted but that is unlikely to happen because the Prime Minister is not me he is him It is therefore up to him to bring people together open a dialogue and recall Parliament All we were asking for was the opportunity to talk for an hour or two However suddenly he does not want to play anymore It is not working anymore and there is something a bit strange about that In addition the government wants to buy the right to interfere in provincial and Quebec jurisdictions for 14billion However Quebec and a number of provinces are refusing to allow it to interfere in their jurisdictions and are asking that this money be paid to them unconditionally Is the Prime Minister trying to take advantage of the crisis or is he trying to create a constitutional crisis ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: MrChair the safety of Canadians is the responsibility of all levels of government That is why we have proposed a 14billion agreement to ensure that all Canadians across the country experience a safe reopening of the economy This is a proposal that we are working on with the provinces because we know that there are needs across the country including early childhood centres screening and support for municipalities The federal government wants to be there to help the provinces The Chair: We will now go to MrSingh Mr. Jagmeet Singh (Burnaby South, NDP): Thank you very much Mr Chair Indigenous leaders have expressed a lack of confidence in the RCMP commissioners ability to tackle fullscale systemic racism but the Prime Minister has expressed his confidence in the commissioner What is that based on ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: Mr Chair over the past two years Commissioner Lucki has made significant strides forward on an issue where there is still much more to do We know that systemic racism exists in all of our institutions across this country The Chair: We will now go back to Mr Singh Mr. Jagmeet Singh: This is the same RCMP commissioner who just recently said that they could not explain what systemic racism was Now the Prime Minister says that he has confidence when indigenous leaders express their lack of confidence Why does the Prime Minister believe that the RCMP commissioner can tackle systemic racism in the RCMP ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: Mr Chair systemic racism is something that touches every corner of our country every corner of our institutions It requires people to understand and move forward in coordinated ways with partners The commissioner is committed to doing that alongside members of our government We will do that together and work with indigenous communities and black Mr. Jagmeet Singh: Mr Chair recent events have made it abundantly clear that to tackle the systemic racism at the level of the RCMP we need a fullscale overhaul of the RCMP Is the Prime Minister committed to a fullscale overhaul of the RCMP to root out systemic racism ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: As I have said many times Mr Chair I am committed to addressing systemic racism in this country and taking significant bold actions to reduce the amount of discrimination that indigenous peoples that racialized Canadians face on a daily basis We have much work to do but we will do it together Mr. Jagmeet Singh: Mr Chair Black Lives Matter has been calling for governments to defund the police What it is saying is that we need to be better at where we spend our money investing in communities and not policing Will the Prime Minister commit to a review of the RCMP budget to allocate resources to community services and not to policing ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: Mr Chair over the past years we have been investing more directly and more money in community organizations in the black community and working with indigenous partners on the path to reconciliation We have been investing in the kinds of communitybased programs and solutions that are part of the solution We know there is much more to do and we will continue to look at all of our expenditures to make sure we are doing the right things Mr. Jagmeet Singh: Mr Chair over the past few years while the Prime Minister has been in office the RCMP budget has increased by 31 More money is going towards policing In recent events we have seen people who needed a health care response to a health care crisis been killed by the RCMP Does the Prime Minister believe that we need to be investing in a health care response instead of a police response for people who are faced with a crisis ? Right Hon. Justin Trudeau: Mr Chair the member opposite well knows that it is not an eitheror We need to make sure that our systems across the board from our police systems to our judicial systems to our health care systems to our community systems are actually addressing the systemic discrimination issues that are embedded within them That is exactly what we are going to continue to do in the coming years
When it comes to the governmental issues, some of the members, for example, Justin Trudeau and Jagmeet Singh had a heated debate over the way of the distribution of the fund. The root of their debate was the problem of systematic racism in the RCMP, and many other institutions at home. Therefore, a revolution might be needed in those institutions. In terms of the revolution, Jagmeet Singh pointed out that the governmental fund should be allocated to medical care instead of RCMP, for that during the outbreak of COVID-19, emergent needs had shown in the medical field.

#Person1#: Lucy, what are your priorities when buying a car? #Person2#: I guess the first thing is the price, the second is the size, and of course the color will play a role too. But I have to be honest. It is our today's responsibility to take care about our environment. Therefore, I will also pay attention to the fuel consumption of the car.

Last of the list, I also consider the safety. #Person1#: What about the environmental factors? #Person2#: Well, I do prefer the lower emission cars as long as it doesn't cost much. Some environmentally-friendly cars are really expensive. #Person1#: Sure they are. Some hi-tech devices are built in to make sure they pollute less. Some of these green cars have not become standard. So the production costs are still high. But anyway, we should make efforts to start with.

PhD F: OK So I mean that seems that seems g great for all of the encoding of things with time and I I guess my question is more what d what do you do with say a forced alignment ? I mean you ve got all these phone labels and what do you do if you just conceptually if you get transcriptions where the words are staying but the time boundaries are changing cuz you ve got a new recognition output or s sort of what s the sequence of going from the waveforms that stay the same the transcripts that may or may not change and then the utterance which where the time boundaries that may or may not change ? PhD A: Oh that s That s actually very nicely handled here because you could you could all you would have to change is the time stamps in the time line without without changing the I Ds PhD F: And you would be able to propagate all of the the information ? Grad C: Right That s the who that s why you do that extra level of indirection So that you can just change the time line PhD A: Except the time line is going to be huge If you say suppose you have a phone level alignment PhD F: especially at the phone level PhD A: You would have you would have PhD F: The we we have phone level backtraces Grad C: this I do not think I would do this for phone level I think for phone level you want to use some sort of binary representation because it will be too dense otherwise PhD F: OK So if you were doing that and you had this sort of companion thing that gets called up for phone level what would that look like ? Grad C: I would use just an existing an existing way of doing it PhD A: Mmm But but why not use it for phone level ? It s just a matter of it s just a matter of it being bigger But if you have you know barring memory limitations or I w I mean this is still the m Grad C: It s parsing limitations I do not want to have this text file that you have to read in the whole thing to do something very simple for PhD A: Oh no You would use it only pause for pause purposes where you actually want the phone level information I would imagine PhD F: So you could have some file that configures how much information you want in your in your XML or something Grad C: Right I mean you would y I I am imagining you would have multiple versions of this depending on the information that you want PhD F: cuz th it does get very bush with Right Grad C: I m just what I m wondering is whether I think for word level this would be OK For word level it s alright
F was concerned about how the time labels would adjust to smaller phonetic units. F inquired if the time boundaries could be changed by propagating new information throughout the XML. F thought that they could configure different XML files to deal with different units, but it would lead to large file sizes.

Professor C: I think the best systems so everything that we did in in a way it was it was just adamantly insisting on going in with a brain damaged system which is something actually we ve done a lot over the last thirteen years which is we say well this is the way we should do it And then we do it And then someone else does something that s straight forward So w th w this was a test that largely had additive noise and we did we adde did absolutely nothing explicitly to handle ad additive noise We just you know trained up systems to be more discriminant And we did this RASTA like filtering which was done in the log domain and was tending to handle convolutional noise We did we actually did nothing about additive noise So the spectral sub subtraction schemes a couple places did seem to seem to do a nice job And so we are talking about putting putting some of that in while still keeping some of our stuff I think you should be able to end up with a system that s better than both but clearly the way that we are operating for this other stuff does involved some latency to to get rid of most of that latency To get down to forty or fifty milliseconds we would have to throw out most of what we are doing And and I do not think there s any good reason for it in the application actually I mean you are you are you are speaking to a recognizer on a remote server and having a a a quarter second for some processing to clean it up It does not seem like it s that big a deal These are not large vocabulary things so the decoder should not take a really long time and PhD A: And I do not think anybody s going to notice the difference between a quarter of a second of latency and thirty milliseconds of latency Professor C: So No What what does wa was your experience when you were doing this stuff with the the the surgical microscopes and so forth how long was it from when somebody finished an utterance to when something started happening ?
The professor said that people adamantly insist on going in with a brain damaged system, overlooking straight forward solutions. He thought that the lag should not be too long for the task.

Project Manager: No But we can go on with the project evaluation Let us see I can sit down I think We still have fifteen minutes left so we are nice on schedule Marketing: So I like set up all these criteria And evaluation of the thingy Project Manager: Evaluation criteria That is right That was the the point I forgot I should There we are Evaluation criteria We have got five minutes I think for those criteria No we have got fifteen minutes but Marketing: Kay so I did some literature study study and analysis of the requirements we set up earlier Translated it into criteria which would be these is the remote fancy ? The shape look and feel Innovative ? What new functions are there ? easy to use ? learnability is a very important factor here is it functional ? Are there not too many functions among the functions ? And are the those functions that are there are they useful ? And the cost The target group Is the remote really for the group we are making it for ? And recognability If our company is If it is easily recognisable that our company made it ? And So we are supposed to evaluate it right now Let us see Oh I have to say this was a little hard because the minutes of our last meeting were not here Project Manager: that is because my pen failed to upload his data but it is it is giving errors by downloading the software Marketing: Is the design fancy on a scale of one to seven ? Project Manager: I think it is fancy Marketing: We all go for six ? Good is the design innovative ? I think so with our LCD screen docking station scrollbuttons Project Manager: So we have got twenty cents for our docking station huh ? Marketing: Is the design easy to use ? Project Manager: That is a bit dodgy Marketing: Well Would be for us But User Interface: For old people I I Project Manager: I would say four Four or five between Between four or five Marketing: I would go for four too Is the design functional ? do we have all functions that we want to include ? I think we do Do we have too many functions ? I do not think so It is pretty slim Seven Oh and do we take care of the biggest frustrations of the remote control ? Like it getting lost and RSI influences ? Industrial Designer: Mm we have not thought of that one Project Manager: I had them worked out Mm They are ugly not very functional and getting lost Marketing: Are the production costs within the preset limits ? Does the design fit the group of focus ? Industrial Designer: I think that is a three Project Manager: No I think with our new radio button I think it is I think it is better Marketing: I think it does not User Interface: We have to test it s But Industrial Designer: I still I think it is too m too fancy Too too flashy Marketing: I think a radio button is not exactly what older people expect to have a remote control Project Manager: I would give it a four Marketing: I am not sure I think I would go for two User Interface: I go for three So Project Manager: Then we have to do the three It is the Marketing: Kay Is the company company recognisable ? Well we have the logo there Project Manager: And they want to put fashion in their products in the slogan of the company And we have the removable front cases So I think it is very recognisable Marketing: So that will be this I was also supposed to calculate the score but thought we would have another private thingy after this Project Manager: We have got a calculate it Mm ? Marketing: Is this Like after this are we done ? Or Project Manager: N We have going to We are going to evaluate it Marketing: We are going to go to our other room again Well anyhow These are seven factors times seven is forty something Two ? No Nine ? minus one Minus three minus four Minus four So that would be minus eight Forty one out of forty nine Project Manager: Forty one That is Around eighty percent Marketing: Guess I will just type that in on the bottom here Project Manager: That is eighty four percent I think that is a pretty nice score Marketing: Kay So that will be the evaluation Project Manager: Thank you So that brings us to the project evaluation Yep Thank you Project process Did we move through the right phases you think ? Along the process ? Marketing: Think we should have a should have had the finance thingy a lot earlier In the design phase Project Manager: That is right So lack of information about prices Satisfaction Was there room for creativity ? It is because of the finance sheet Industrial Designer: there w there was enough room but the finance Marketing: And I would have liked to go for the younger users also And just to be able to access internet and get something of your own Project Manager: Restrictions Internet access Kay Leadership Was it clear what everybody had to do according to their roles and functions ? ? Teamwork ? Did it work out ? Working together ? Also you two of you with the last phase ? Industrial Designer: The tasks are very structured so you can just do step by step and it is very easy Project Manager: tasks Were the means sufficient for the tasks we had to do ? Or were they too much ? Industrial Designer: Well the smartboard the d d drawing is just a pain in the ass but The digital the digital pen is very nice Project Manager: If it wants to download its data Failed download Smartboard was irritating So you rather wanted to have a flipover ? Or something else ? Industrial Designer: A flipover or a more precise digit Project Manager: Faster as well I think User Interface: But if you want to share of when you make a picture like this on the presentation it is easier to share it with other people so you can sh save it and put it on the internet or in shared f folder or sh shared directory Marketing: I tried to open the file on my laptop Project Manager: you need a smart board application I think But I think you can User Interface: T can can you export it like a Project Manager: Should be possible you can export it as image Marketing: Should have done that then Project Manager: So the sharing of the information was was ? pen is here on the table That is nice Have we found new ideas for having this kind of meetings ? Or User Interface: maybe when we n just give the numbers of of o one of out of s sev it is easier to to do the th things that are like that on a computer so just l like at you university Project Manager: So So everybody puts his own score And then it mediates the score and you can get one That is better So that is How do we call ? Evaluation criteria Mm any more ideas ? Or questions about the project ? Or about the product ? Because I think then that we get to our last sheet Are the costs within the budget ? Industrial Designer: Considering we are not going to make a docking station Project Manager: Do we Docking station That is a good point But maybe because of the docking station the price of the remote can also be a little bit higher ? and I think you can compensate that as well So I think that should not be the biggest problem because it is very cheap to make as well Do we think we going to get the twelve and a half million ? Or what was it ? Fifteen fifteen million I think we will If we going to export this product It is innovative Especially in America People are pretty decadent Sometimes Marketing: still I think I mean if we are n going to make a scrollbutton anyway it would be more for the younger people than for the older people So maybe we should just refocus Project Manager: Just put it on the market for everybody You can you can change markets where by changing the front covers Marketing: Or specifically for younger people Project Manager: That is one thing you can change it with So you can also try to reach the younger people by putting fancy covers on on the market Just as a test See how it works That is I think a good advantage Marketing: I think then it would be way more popular with younger people than it is than would be with older people Even if it were their covers Project Manager: then I think we can have our little celebration right now I think we still have to fit in one more questionnaire I think User Interface: Where is the champagne ? Project Manager: I do not know I did not get a message from the from ending of the Oh I think I have one now Five more minutes ? Oh that is nice Then we still have some questions If somebody has some questions they can ask them now Or we can put these in the project folder as well Maybe that is Export as picture I think This is another network I guess Does somebody see the project folder ? I do not My Documents User Interface: maybe they will save it So Project Manager: I will just put it in My Documents
Though Project Manager forgot to prepare evaluation criteria beforehand, Marketing had analyzed project requirements and brought forward a systematic set of criteria, according to which product was graded by the whole group. Then, under the guidance of Project Manager, the group evaluated the project process. Eventually, the meeting stepped into the closing phase.
#Person1#: Morgan, can I ask you a question? #Person2#: sure, what is it? #Person1#: I was just wondering if many Chinese people take their leftover food home from a restaurant. #Person2#: in most cities in China, doggie bags are quite uncommon. #Person1#: what happen to all the leftover food? #Person2#: it usually goes to the dump. #Person1#: that seems like an awful waste! Why don't people order fewer dishes so that they don't have to throw so much away at the end of the meal? #Person2#: ordering a lot of food at restaurants is just a tradition in China. You know, in the past, people could not afford to eat out like they can today. #Person1#: I guess that makes sense. I just think it would make more sense to take the leftovers home. #Person2#: well, if you want, you can take the leftovers home. #Person1#: no, that's OK. You know what they say when in Rome. . . #Person2#: I was impressed that you tried the pig's feet. I heard that many foreigners don't like to eat them. #Person1#: many people in my generation don't eat pig's feet, but my parents grew up eating them, so I think they are OK. #Person2#: did you like them? You could take the last one home with you. #Person1#: that's OK. I'll try anything once, but sometimes, once is enough!

They just come out when the weather gets cool, usually after a big storm. They'll be quiet after 4 or 5 weeks. #Person1#: Where do they go for the next 17 years? #Person2#: Oh, they live near the mountains for most of their lives. They just come down here to sing and do their special dances. #Person1#: Sounds like they're in the sky. #Person2#: Well, they're in the trees mostly. #Person1#: This is terrible. Now I don't want to walk under any of the trees in this forest. There's probably bird waste everywhere. #Person2#: So you don't have these in the city. I thought I heard them when I went to Atlanta Georgia. #Person1#: I've never heard anything like this before. California might not have them. #Person2#: Maybe they're just in the East.

Dafydd Evans: Could I start and then open it up ? Thank you very much for the opportunity to give evidence But just to give you the context I think if you were asking about the vast majority of subjects what the view of ColegauCymru would be it would be quite unanimous but I think on the Welsh bac there is a difference of opinion and I am sure you will hear those differences on the panel before you today We have possibly chosen this panel because there are differences of opinion So I just want to give you that context at the outset To answer the specific question no I do not think that employers have a clear understanding of what the Welsh bac means or what it includes Personally I do not think that even the title of the Welsh bac is helpful because it does not say what is happening in the tin So I think the skills challenge certificate is a better title and is something that people understand a lot better than the Welsh bac So no I do not think that employers understand the value or what we are trying to achieve through the Welsh bac at present Sian Gwenllian AM: Which is a big problem Dafydd Evans: Yes it is a huge problem but not only to employers but also to parents and young people of course Dr Rachel Bowen: And I think that that varies by size of employer as well That certainly where there are larger employers who have got people who are able to follow policy developments across the education spectrum they may have more capacity to follow changes get up to date with how Welsh education is evolving But we know that most employers in Wales are small or microbusinesses And while there are lots of small engaged employers who have taken an interest and do understand the vast majority are more focused on getting on with the daytoday running of the business And that means it is quite a challenge to understand what is the Welsh bac what does it offer And certainly when that is evolved over the past few years and there have been changes it would have been quite difficult to keep up to date with those I imagine Nick Brazil: Could I add to that ? As do many of my colleagues within the colleges we have a number of employer boards which we regularly meet with—employers—and I can not think back as to how many employers say to us That is what we require—the Welsh bac—to come and work within our industry Most of what they are questioning is the level of professional qualifications and the quality of skills within those professional sectors Not many of them have indicated that the Welsh bac is providing the skills that they require I think many of them believe in the vision that was set out for the Welsh bac initially but the Welsh bac has turned into quite a rigorous some would say demanding qualification which is putting a lot of pressure on in terms of bureaucracy in terms of staff and the student getting all the information together at the end of the year and whether that is developing the skills that employers require is very questionable And as I said from the employer boards that we have very few of them understand the Welsh bac They certainly do not mention the Welsh bac and as I said are very much questioning the qualifications that have been provided to develop the actual professional skills needed within the industries Sian Gwenllian AM: Kay is that your experience ? Kay Martin: Certainly it is very similar and our employers want to make sure they get the right qualification They are having enough headache getting around the differences with apprenticeships and the levy between England and Wales and changes to qualifications But they want them to get their main qualification So if you are an engineer they want to get the engineering qualifications and they want them to be literate numerate and they want them to have digital skills And that is not captured necessarily in the Welsh baccalaureate And so the understanding is quite limited amongst the employers we work with Sian Gwenllian AM: And finally I know you have got strong views as an organisation Ed Evans: Do you mind if I carry on in English— —just so that a lot of our members will understand when I am speaking I think it is fair to say employers do not understand it that is for sure but I think if they did they would really appreciate this For my sector in particular—the civil engineering sector—and particularly the contracting sector which depends very much on pupils who have come through from a less academic background the Welsh bac gives them that ability I guess not to pursue so much of an academic focus but to test them in terms of the challenges but also to— And I think if it was working properly and we did have employers engaged in this and supporting schools and colleges to deliver it they would actually be learning a lot more directly from industry And some children some pupils some young people they respond far far better to that And I think that is the issue for me—that we have not really sold this to employers to actually engage with them All of my understanding of this is literally as a parent and that would be true of a lot of employers as well So perhaps there are differences across the sector but I think certainly for my sector we would really value the growth of the Welsh baccalaureate
They all agreed that most employers did not have a clear understanding of what Welsh bac means or what it includes, which was a big problem not only for employers, but also for parents and young people. Though some small engaged employers did understand it, the vast majority focused more on running the business without a clear understanding.
