Post a new blog entry showcasing the best part/section of your 400-word report and explain why you think it is the best.
We think that the part "...shared our ideas and got more creative ideas from books, the internet and magazines so as to get ideas for our posters and postcards. ...The infomation technology now is so advanced that we can now chat online through MSN and send emails..."
We this that it is the best part because: 1) Ideas can be found every where! Books, the internet, magazines, advertisments, photos, etc. As long as we have the 'heart' to work on the project, we can definately get ideas from some where and some how. But if we don't have the 'heart' to work on the project, we would not even think of where we should get creative ideas from. Am I right to say that? 2) Over the years, every thing around us is improving. Such as the technology, methods of teaching, medical science, etc. We should make use of everything around us. Like what I've said, we can get ideas from any where. We can also communicate with each other any where, any time! Like, we can communicate by making use of our handphones or house phones like making conference calls or like in our report, sending emails to each other and/or chatting online using MSN accounts. We're sure almost everyone have a MSN account.
We should think of different ways to get ideas or to 'get together'.
***We've edited the poster and postcards. The new pictures will be posted at a later time.***

Post a new blog entry describing some of your experiences working with a non-member of your PW group (e.g. a mutual friend, a sibling, an interviewee, a (school) libarian, a PW teacher etc) on this project. He or she probably did you a personal favour or offered you good advice. Include a picture (or video) of him/her after seeking his/her permission.
We have got some help from some non-members of our PW group. They are our PW teachers, Mrs Ganesan and Mr Yeo. They have given us ideas on how to improve our PW blogs. They have also given us ideas on how we should design our postcards and posters. We also have another non-member of our PW group who also helped us. She is our school libarian. She allowed us to use the computers in the library to do our project. She also told us where to find the books that we needed for our research.

Sorry teachers for posting these posts late.
Didn't had the time to use the computer.
Sincere apologies.
Post a new blog entry discussing how and why your group decided on ONE of the Learning Issues listed in your FILA chart. Include (a part of) the answer to this Learning Issue in the same entry too.
One of the learning issues that we've choosen is : Why aren't the educational campaingns been effective?
HOW
We've discussed about it and had choosen to use this learning issue. Beacause we think that educational campaigns are suppose to be able to make youths learn.
WHY
We've choosen this learning issue because we think that when the educational campaigns can attract youths, it would be effective. (Attract youths as in not childish or lame) If it wasn't attrative, youths would not even take a look at what the campaign is about. So, the important thing of the educational campaigns must be suitable for teens and it must be attractive.
Decide on how to distribute the workload with your group members, especially when it comes to the educational materials to be designed and created.
We have to fair to everyone when it comes to distributing of workload. Example, each person is supposed to have a piece of work to do. If not, some of the group members will be doing more things than the others and it would not be fair. The person doing the most work would be very busy and the others would not have things to do and would think that the hardworking ones would do all the work and they could slack and do nothing at all.
We've designed and created 2 postcards and a poster for our project.
This is the poster that we've made. It contains infomation on why we should not smoke.
This is one of the postcards that we've made. This postcard is about the diseases that smokers are more susceptible to.
Post a new blog entry discussing how and why your group should work together for PW. Include QUOTES from some - if not all - group members.
HOW
We can work together as a group by getting together after classes, during PW lessons or working together online in MSN as many of us have a MSN account.
WHY
We should work together as a group so that we can get work done quickly and can meet datelines. An advantage why we should work together as a group is we can bond together like during the Sec 1 camp.
Some quotes on teamwork are :
Ting Han- There is no "I" in "TEAM".
Yu Chen-One for all and all for one.
Hillary- TEAM = Together Everyone Achieves More.
Sheldon- Teamwork is working together — even when apart.
Cheryl- A successful team beats with one heart.
Post a new blog entry showcasing 1 to 2 of your educational materials that have been created by your group so far. Include a few pictures (or videos!) of them.
