shall post my random thoughts 1st before i forget:
- i thought our speakers were good in engaging the audience. lots of activities and videos meant more audience participation hence engagement. However, the information shared may not have been enough. In contrast to the speaker the other group invited, i felt that it was too factual-based. too much on lecturing hence boring the audience.

I felt that it would have been great if we could combine the best of both worlds -- the activities as well as information about the particular topic. Adequate amount of information will be provided to the audience whilst preventing them from being bored.

- Through sitting through the two presentations, i felt that a key element in presenting other than engaging the audience is also to have a clear and loud voice (voice projection) so that the audience will not find it a chore to listen to your presentation. At the same time, the information presented in the slides should most preferably be concise, so that the audience will be able to absorb the information quickly and they will also pay attention to your elaboration.

HY's reflections for 7 n 14 jul

7th july

We were, at that time, still unsure of whether we could get a slot for our lessons, thus I was feeling quite unsure. We had nothing to do except rehearse, which I guess could be considered as a blessing in disguise as we discovered flaws in our set of instructions. Through rehearsing, we discovered a more effificient way of getting feedback from the target audience, which was to change the survey method from online tabulation to immediate tabulation after the activity has been conducted. This ensures that we get responses from all the participants, and we have an added advantage as the target audience still has an impression of our project.

14th july

After confirming the time with Trybe, all the instructions from the teachers came rushing in. I felt really pressed for time, and the teachers were calculating how much time we had left to complete our project. I had to do a lot of liasing, and was quite unsure, until I realised that the people I need to lias with have always given me immediate responses, thus I felt assured.

Lihua's CID Reflections

CID Reflections 07/04/09
We are still deciding on whether we should conduct a lecture or a lesson. Both have their pros and cons. I think that conducting a lesson will ensure that students will pay closer attention. When we conduct a lecture, it is harder to make sure that everybody will give their co-operation as compared to during a lesson.

CID Reflections 14/04/09
I didn't come. (:

sharlene's reflections for 14/4/09

According to Mr Tan,we're probably getting our slots for the lessons and lectures to be conducted by TRYBE in July since there have been many activities scheduled for CHAMPS lessons before June holidays. Hence, it will be a great challenge indeed to complete our report and presentation after the course is conducted since the time is short, not to mention,the results for the feedback forms have to be collated as well. I hope we will have enough time to finish up everything. We can perhaps start work on the report during the June holidays to minimize workload after the course has been conducted.

minutes for 14/4/09

for group presentation on tuesday:
Huey Yiing will talk on external lecture
Luqi will talk about the posters
LiHua will talk about internal lecture(academic stress)
Sharlene will talk about internal lecture(relationship stress)

Internal course will be conducted in lesson form. Estimated time is one hour.
Huey Yiing make strategy powerpoints and send Mr John Tan HBP proposal and confirm dates for lessons and TRYBE lecture with Mr Tan (the other one).

Luqi and Huey Yiing will take class 3I for lessons. Sharlene and LiHua will take a year 4 class for the lessons (yet to be confirmed). The rest of the classes will have their chairpersons take them through the internal course.

So we've done everything, complied all our slides into one, and the only thing left are the posters. *Stares hard at a certain group member* It's long overdue, you know.
I'm really glad Mr Tan has agreed to upload our feedback form onto IVLE, it is definitely a great help.

Sharlene's reflections for 7/4/09

I think our presentations slides are almost completed. We just need to compile all our lessons into one lecture and we're done! The thing we have to focus on now is our posters and pamphlets. =D

JIA YOU! =D AJA! FIGHTING! =D

Minutes for 7/4/09

- compile lessons into one lecture
- ask John Tan to upload feedback survey into IVLE for us.
- Posters and Pamphlets
Huey Yiing: compile lessons into one lecture and send John Tan
Luqi and LiHua: DO posters and pamphlets
Sharlene: source for info to put on posters

hueyyiing's reflection for 24 & 31 mar

24 mar
The project is going well. All we need to do now is to speak to Ms Candice so that we can plan out our last lesson and contact Mr Tan to see which available slots can be taken by us.
I'll need to contact Trybe for a quotation and the HPB for a grant.
I hope all goes well!

31mar
Now, we just have to wait for Mr Tan to respond so that we can arrange our lessons and liase with Trybe
And Lu Qi has to come up with the posters --|||
Once Mr Tan gives us the green light, we can come up with our scripts and we just have to carry out the lectures!

Sharlene's reflections for 31/3/09

We are right on schedule with the completion of lesson materials for the lectures and lessons for the stress management course. However, it is important that we get the permission from Mr Tan to carry out our course before the June Holidays as soon as possible as there may be many other events that has to be carried out during CHAMPS lessons and we also may have to do some reshuffling of lesson materials in order to suit the various time slots given to us.
Through this, i can tell that the hardest part of the project may come from liaising with the various key personnel because we have to get their cooperation in order to carry out or project or it will be a no-go.

minutes for 31/3/09

During CID, we decided on the followings:
- Li HUa will rewrite the format of GPP for HPB which will be submitted to them
- LuQi will do up the template of posters and pamphlets by next tuesday
- Huey Yiing will send the most recent lesson materials to Mr Tan for him to approve
- Sharlene will update minutes on blog (which she is doing now. HAHA.)
