Hahas. Today we got our project work comments. I think i did well. By the way, for those who dont know, i got a band 1. =) And well, i purposely ignored someone who offended me recently =P well i guess i should say sorry for that.

I looked at the comments written by the markers. Well. Didnt mean anything to me. how can a person be judged that way? The comments written are very personal, and its like it depends alot on whether the marker likes your work or not? I mean its the same controversy with gp. Thats why i dont think that a person should be judged for such things. When someone dont agree with your point, its hard to give the person a good grade beacause you would refute those points in your mind!

GP movies. Ms Lim likes to show us movies for GP. Well. Ok we watched it and of course it comes with a discussion after that. But the problem with the discussion is that, although she is open for discussion, but she have a planned route of discussion and the points of discussion in her mind! Its like she dont let you shoot points off and bring about a larger picture, but she have an expected answer in mind already. It is the point she deemed as the key of the movie, but evidently its not for many of us. We see different things as the main theme in the movie. So what is called correct in this sense. I would say nothing.

Coming back to project work. I felt very sad about charity's and guangmian's group. Their idea was the most innovative and interesting, but they got a band 3. I know here and there about what they did, and it seemed fine. So i dont know what is the problem. But after some thinking, i realised its the problem with the markers. The idea is new, and abstract. Hence its not very acceptable by many people. Many people do not agree. Yes i know that the idea of the report and project is to convince people that the thing works. But with a precept in mind, its inevitable that there would be biasness. A less well done project with a more familiar topic may excel better than one which is well done on a unique topic. So who is the one who should grade?

Project work. By the sheer name it should grade the ability of people to work together. The final product is one of the measures, but id say its only minor.
