So here am I again to talk about the Worldskills Singapore Finals held at ITE College West at Choa Chu Kang. It was an 18 hour competition spread over 3days. Going to compete in the finals are me, Alisha Chiang and Loke Jun Ming.
We had worked for months to prepare for the 3 days. Hours and hours of intense training, staying back after classes and loads of practice at home. Even though training had been tough, we were well-prepared and ready to meet the challenge.
We had to create a interactive website using a given topic and given information. We were not given any internet access and had to use our knowledge and given resources to create a functional website that fits the given theme. We were given images and used Adobe Flash to create an interactive banner. Some of the tools we used were Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Flash and Adobe Dreamweaver. The website included log in features, view members profile, admin features etc.
The closing cermony was held on the 26 Jan in which I recieved a Silver Medal and Alisha recieved a Medallion of Excellence. Our hard work and efforts have paid off after the tiring 3 days. We are grateful to all the lecturers who have guided us and taught us much. This competition has really tested our determination, endurance and patience.
A big congratulations to all the Temasek Polytechnic medalists!
