1
My name is Haiyan Jung.
2
I'm Innovation Director at Microsoft Research in Cambridge.
3
And I get my best ideas when I'm geeking out with some of the amazing people that I work with.
4
So we're in this beautiful lab in Cambridge and we have a number of different research areas, all the way from hardcore computer science,
5
programming languages, to looking at holograms new technologies,
6
reading up on what new developments are happening in the world, and how do we apply that into people's lives and make impact to really help people.
7
Digital is so important, it's all about driving everything towards the future of computing, whether that computing might be silicon chips or it might be biological in nature,
8
but it's all thinking about computations.
9
I started out studying
10
is think more broadly about how technology can really impact people's lives
11
and that's when I started on this journey to thinking about innovation.
12
My life and my job has taken me all over the world.
13
So I was born in China, my family moved to Australia where I studied computer science
14
and from there I became a software engineer in Toronto
15
and then I decided to go over to Italy to study design
16
which took me to San Francisco to be an innovation consultant and now I'm in Cambridge. in the UK.
17
I've always loved technology and computing ever since I was a little kid.
18
I'd sit at home and program on my old XT and I'd be writing little pieces of music on my
19
PC sound card.
20
So it's been a lot of fun and I've just kind of chased that that love and
21
I've got three of my favourite projects to show you.
22
So this is Project Torino, they're a set of physical blocks that teaches sight impaired kids how to code.
23
And this is Project Physio, where we've got a cystic fibrosis breathing device and a gadget that turns your breath into controllers for a video game.
24
And finally we have a prototype for the Emma watch, so this was developed for the Big Life Fix and it's a vibrating watch that helps Emma overcome her Parkinson's symptoms.
25
I think I love everything about playing with technology, all the way from just tinkering with it, putting, you know, soldering wires together,
26
writing code, to having someone try out a prototype for the first time and seeing that reaction.
27
If you want to get into my world, I've got three top tips for you.
28
play with technology So get into coding, tinkering with electronics, just start getting your hands dirty.
29
Find like -minded people
30
So find the people that you can talk with
31
that share your interests and maybe you can brainstorm together and create even bigger, better ideas.
32
Go tackle the big challenges.
33
So go find the big problems to solve in your community.
34
There are lots of them right now and in the future and try to make a difference.
35
I think it's every innovator's dream to have something
36
that they've dreamt up to be realised in the world
37
and have people using it if it's one person or ten people or a million people.
38
When I'm faced with a new challenge, this is how I go about tackling it.
39
Gain insight.
40
So really get into the heart of the problem, either through reading, papers, articles or talking to the real people who are facing this problem.
41
You might find that they're already using a workaround to solve for their challenges.
42
Create prototypes Start trying out your ideas on paper, with drawings or cardboard, or even with electronics.
43
But try out your ideas early with the people that the problem affects.
44
How can you best deploy your idea into the world and create the biggest impact in someone's life?
45
Given the resources that you have, how can you create the biggest bang for your buck?
46
I definitely found it challenging being one of a few women studying computer science.
47
But what I found that I needed to do was really over geek, so really get into technology, get passionate about it and start showing that passion to the people around me
48
so that they would come along with me on this journey.
49
You know, I think it's so important for women to speak up and voice their opinions in meetings, in group settings.
50
You know, I still find that challenging, but I think it's so important to say something than not say anything at all.
51
It's such an exciting time for young people to get into digital technology.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
