This is from a student development welfare survey I did :P Haha.... gave quite a bit of comments. But duno they will listen or not :P haha.....

Q 16. If your answer to Questions 4 to 15 is a "No", please specify the programme and give your reasons below:

Ans:
8. Visit of School Vision, Mission, College Values . Did we have any?
9. 7 Habits of an Effective Student ( including goals Felt that it was useless and a waste of time. And quite a number of student already did it in there secondary school. No point repeating again. The habits are also not very realistic or practical, cannot apply to our lives. Somemore, we are already 17, theres no need for that.
11. Youth Day Celebration - "Passion of Youth". The time taken was too long, especially that we still have lessons in the morning. A lot of us wanted to go back to our secondary school so everyone was just waiting for the concert to be over and not really enjoying it. It would be best that we can just have the celebrations without the lessons in the morning. Whats the point of having a few hours of lessons with the students not in the mood to study. The results of the lessons are very insignificant to our studies.
12. Sexuality Education.
Perhaps it could be conducted in other ways, because a lot of us are too shy to share our ideas and the workshop becomes boring.
14. Interaction with Civics Tutor. We interact with our tutor every morning, so theres no need for another session.
15. Student of the Term. Dosen't really concerns us, because we are unlikely to get it. Because some teachers may just be lazy or can't be bothered to nominate.
Perhaps we can have the nomination done by students and the voting by teachers? :) That could be more fun.


Q17. What were some of the things that you like / did not like about the PC/CT lessons that were conducted during the year ? Please comment.

Perhaps we could have more inter-class activites during the PC-CT lessons, rather than talking about the 7 habits of a teenager. We are already 17, and we know how to behave, these programmes have insignificant effect on us. So we should have more inter-class activities to build up our class spirit and college spirit.So in order to make time for such activities, and also to solve the problem of the SDW dept cracking your heads to come out with activities every week.So I propose that we have it once every 2-4 weeks and combined the total periods of time together. For eg. Instead of having a slot of 1hr of PC-CT lesson every week, we can have a slot of 3hrs of PC-CT period every 3 weeks. So we can have sufficient time to conduct team building activities. And you people can also have time to think of more interesting activities to be organised.


Q18. Please provide suggestions / activities/ programmes that you think would interest you in future PC/CT lessons .

Like I said in Qn 17, have more inter-class activities.We can have mini competitions every once in a while. Eg. If you all find that the class rooms are very dirty, we can have a cleanest class award. They are given the the time to clean up their classes and after that there will be judging. But we must bear in mind that Singaporeans students are 'profit motivated' So be sure to prepare some prizes.Or can organise our own YJC idol? Each week a few classes will pit against each other for the title. Then we have have the prelimary rounds, the semi-finals the finals, and everything. So all these stages can be spread out for many weeks. This could be the programe for the entire first 3 mths for the 1st intake next year. This may also add some colours in our college life :)


Q27. For Question 19, if the answer is 'No', indicate why :
Because, I don't need it. So why bother to cramp my mind with such stuffs and take up space which could be used to store other informations.


Q53. The College would like to provide students with opportunities to seek advice and help with due regard to their emotional and physical needs. Please give suggestions that you feel could help you and your fellow schoolmates cope with issues that you face.

Well, its a passing phase in life. So they have to go through it thenselves. I feel that the help given are more than enough.
