I don't have that online ST thing like Mr Wang has, but here's a little summary.
JC students projects yield real-life benefits
Growing acceptance of PW as more than just a A-level requirement
Har har har. Forgive my ignorance, but I can't seem to see any benefits PW brings to the student, let alone the community. In my eyes, it seems to be nothing more than a burden that gives more trouble than all my 3 H2 subjects added together. I'm certain I'm not the only one feeling this way. Heck, the percentage of students that hate PW can easily be more than the percentage of local drivers.
The article then goes on to rant about how the students proposals have actually been made reality, like the Subway outlet in TJC.
The Education Ministry does not track how many proposals are realised but about 2700 proposals are submitted every year. A check revealed that the number of projects realised at each JC is fewer than 10, out of the 170 written reports of projects submitted per JC/CI.
The acceptance of PW shows that it has come a long way since it was introduced in the A-levels in 2003.
This was were I got confused.
Out of 170 written reports, less than 10 are realised. Take 10 as an exmaple. Doing the math, we get 10/170 x 100% = 5.88%. This means less than 5.88% of the WRs are realised, right? Unless my A grade in math was in vain.
SOOO, < 5.88%. Where is the bloody hell is the the acceptance of PW shown?
With articles like this, I can't be sure of how much truth is there in the newspapers we read.
On a lighter note, I saw this one day out:-
I was like, what in the world is that? Until my sister told me it was the chinese word "JIA", which is actually 33.33% of my name. I almost slapped myself for not recognising it.
