I am Raine, one of the bloggers for this blog. I am finally doing an entry. All this time I was rather behind the scenes. As from today I'm breaking out of my shell and doing a post myself. (:
Today I went back to help out Ms. Faridah for a publicity event to introduce our IMI course to the students from Coral Secondary who are the members of the Infocomm Club in their school. Here are some pictures I took during the event :

Freshies Melvin Tan and Wee Chia Yin who were from Coral Secondary sharing their interesting IMI experiences with the younger students
To let the students know more about our IMI Diploma, we had a short presentation about IMI, highlighting on subjects learnt, students achievements, student life and further studies. Our seniors did a good job demonstrating the interesting IMI students' projects including videos, websites, online games and photographs, via our IMI blog. The students were invited to visit our IMI blog http://www.tp-imi.blogspot.com/ for updated information about IMI including interesting news about our graduates, students' projects and Diploma events.
The highlight of this event are the sharing sessions from the IMI Seniors, Avril Khoo and Jessie Tay and Freshies Foong Hui Chun, Lorraine Keong, Melvin Tan, May Yeo, Tan Xuan Hao and Wee Chia Yin, about their enriching academic experiences as well as the awesome student life in TP/IIT especially the friendship and camaradarie shared amongst IMI students and other IIT and TP students.
Last but not least, there were also some hands-on activities for the students. They had the opportunity to play with Adobe Photoshop software, try out different effects and tools available and had lots of fun editing the photo of popular teenage music sensation Justin Bieber. The smiles on the students' faces clearly showed that they had a great time playing around with the software.
I've learnt many lessons from this event. Since I didn't have much idea when I first joined this course, the event today has given me a good chance to learn more about IMI directly through first-hand accounts by my lecturer, Ms Faridah and seniors. It was also a great opportunity for me to interact with senior IMI students as well as my fellow IMI Freshies from other classes. It's great to know that joining this course wasn't the wrong choice after all! (:
