today was the Workshop 2 Exhibition for the 3rd year students. Participants were interactive media and software development students.
i visited the exhibition and walked through the student's works. And here are some of my findings:
1. Student's presentation skills are not very excellent. I even found some students presented in BM. Well, what's the point of preparing everything in English, yet the presentation was in BM? I doesn't meant to look down in BM but i think students should present in English since they had done everything in English (from the system to report and also the poster!). English is very important in Industry and the students should master in presenting and communicating in English. Well this is some feed back from my friends who are in industry now.
2. I also noticed some of the student's communication skills was not very good. They are not able to defend or convince why they did certain kind of flow or methods (even though they were presenting in BM!). When the panels asked why did like this, they can't give concrete answer although what they did was correct. In industry, when you are not able to convince your customer, you will loose the business!
well, i don't want to comment too much as i had also went through the same process and i knew hows the feeling of the students doing the workshop 2.
As a overall conclusion, there are many mobile applications developed and i also noticed some very good ideas which have potentials. I do hope they will expend the idea in their coming final year project.
Good Luck folks!

i think chang, that’s why they create marketing department. and these guys will clean up for techies / developers. hehe
er, too bad if they chose to be freelancers tho.
Haha… its true when the person wants to be developer/programmer forever. In software houses, marketing people are techies/developers themselves. because to capture user requirements etc, you still need them (techies).
Well, its just some of my friend’s experience, although they are techies/developers, sometimes they still need to deal with client.
Well, just my opinion only. Hehe
Thanks alot for ur feedback!
