Abolish Project Work
Sign Now
In Singapore, Junior Colleges have this curriculum called Project Work. It is counted into 10\% of the 'A' Levels.
But do you thuink Project Work is of any use to us?
Some might say yes, it helps with communication and teaches how to work efficiently with one and other. But this could be learnt in other activties as well. Activities such as World of Warcraft, where you need the teamwork of 40 people in a raid to get a boss down, and also mini-projects held in class where the stress level is not as high as if you say it is part of the 'A' Levels.
To most of my friends and myself as well. It is a simply a waste of time and resources to complete the project. You could spend the time doing Project Work on other better things like revision etc...
Sometimes the project is not entirely based on how resourceful is your group, but the efficiency and help from teachers you get in school. Most importantly if your teacher is not knowledgable on the project you are on, then you will be stuck for quite some time. Sometimes if you are given wrong comments or directions, you might end up worse than you actually suppose to be.
So what do you say on abolishing project work? Are you with me to the end?

Project work is too tough for the junior college route. It makes a junior college student have 'No Life' at all. With Academics, NYAA and CCAs,social life to do with, i think it is too much for the junior college life with a Project Work stuffed in.
