Group Project
So after the last week of lesson about developing a framework for the future, we went straight to continue doing our project. What we had to do is to create a web report for our project. Being the only group that does not have any SIS student in the group, we thought that it would be very difficult for us, but thanks to technology being so awesome these days, we manage to create a website without even using any HTML codes. Back in my secondary school days, I knew some basic HTML codes but have forgotten them all already so wix was very helpful. My group project was about social media and us. It was actually a very broad topic and we had difficulty in deciding which aspect we should look into. In the end, we decided to look at how Social Media has affect us in socially, politically, as well as in the business aspect. In every project, there would be something that can be learnt. The topic itself, how to do proper research, group work, and coordinating the group. As for the topic itself, much research had to be done and it was definitely not easy so we had to learn how to search 'smart'. Group work and coordinating was also important because this is quite a huge project. Everyone in the group had their other things to do so it was difficult to bring the group together to meet up frequently. It was only till a few days before our presentation that we managed to get everyone in the group to meet up as a whole to do some concrete updates for our group project. It wasn't easy, but we manage to do it.
Special thanks to my group mate Wilson who helped coordinate the group meetings and delegating the jobs and also Regina who helped a lot in the research aspect.
My group web report can be viewed here.
On the same day, we had two other groups presenting on the following topics
Personally, I was from an arts CCA in secondary school and JC so I was quite interested in the topic. Indeed, technology has changed the arts in many ways. The visual arts, music as well as film. However, it is unlikely that the traditional forms art will be phased out because those are the basis which modern art is derived from. Art lovers will still want to go to museums to see famous paints, go to concerts to listen to live music, as well as theaters to view live musicals.
It was quite nice to learn about how technology can help the disabled. People who are disabled did not have a choice to be like that. If they were given a choice, I'm sure that they will not choose to be disabled because they have many limitations. Very often, people who are disabled are very pessimistic towards life because they feel that they are 'useless'. With technology helping the disabled, it will help bring hope to them and hopefully make them feel more positive as they will be able to live their lives more like normal human beings.
