My thoughts about the learning journey to te Peranakan Museum 040909

Hi all,

About the peranakan museum... i think its not bad, what do i mean by that? The museum has quite a lot of exhibits and is somehow attractive? However, the time factor is rather short, i also feel that handouts shouldn't be given to be completed, reason because they just focus on completing the handout instead of really viewing the exhibits. I think that a more appropriate way will be that after the journey, we can have a short quiz to test them. I proposed Kong Hiap Memorial Museum & Malay Heritage Centre, these 2 museum are the only 2 culture museum that we have in Singapore and yet not visited.

CCA reflection 28/8/09

Greetings,

Today I had a 'short' time at cca.
Events clashed- cca, teacher's day rehersal and art club presentation.
Shirley's ppt didn't mangaed to work for its a version 2007 and the school's can only manage 2003's. Hence, a lot of time is wasted in 'repairing' the ppt. However, in the end, it still failed and we just shared the pictures we shot during the course instead of the orginally planned reflections in the ppt. All excpet me forgot what they wrote in theire reflections and thus the latter couldn't proceed. After that, we left for the teacher's day rehersal. In fact, they only requires us to choose our location and arrange the tables for our station. that's all. Following that, ZhiXuan and I went to help the councillors since they requires help. Good Job and initiative shown Zhi Xuan!

CCA reflection for 21 of august

Hi everyone,

As for today's cca, shirley and i went to a leadership course that simply wasted our time. Little did we know that the rest of our cca can't find our teachers to open the computer lab for research. But after our event they did. Good job. Today we shouldn't even have the research activity, no one is doing anything except for the one responsible to compile everything together as one ppt. The rest simply passed their time in the net. They don't care when we told them to contribute to their group. After cca, we had the commitee meeting again. The commitee shows their attitude, except Viola. We're asking them if they want to appeal against the standardize, mainly for their own good, and they think that we're wasting their time? What a joke is that.

CCA reflection - 14/08/09

Hi everyone,

Today's cca, i feel very drained out. CCA as usual, doing research, my group had to redo it for i told them that their research was not relevant (except xinpei's, but everyone good job though). I had to settle some admin stuff like our cca contacts, and dicuss with shirley on our week 8 presentation to art club. After that, we had a "little" discussion with mdm lee on the email writing. That dragged pass the dismisal time and no one voiced it out, therefore, they had to wait. We(comittee) had to stay back for a comittee meeting, regarding the issue on email writing. I had to agree with Mdm Lee that some of us just gave sloppy work, not following the email standard. Hence, the meeting was used to teach them on what to do for their attachments and emails in the near future. Mdm Lee called for a standardise in the font and writer, however, i feel no such need for that, that is simply an additional. I'm going to voice it out to them. I'm feeling that our cca is really undergoing a major revolution, i feel that too much changes is undergoing the cca.

Thanks,
Mathew

CCA reflection

Hi all,

My first time posting in a blog.

Today's reflection is ...
Actually i didn't do much today, went for the LCD and National Day stuff, took away some of the precious CCA time. After i went back, i realised that my group members were busy research and the truth is that there are no longer any task for me to fufill, hence i'll be in charge of the PPT after all the reseach has been complied together.

Thanks for reading,
Mathew
