[AEC-NET] Online Voting System for AEC Projects - Phase I

2007-11-24T04:48:00.000+07:00

Dear Members

As you were already informed in early November, we have started Phase I of the online poll for the AEC Projects on 1 November 2007. Some of you have enquired if students and non-members were allowed to submit their votes for their favourite AEC projects. The answer is definitely yes since the online poll is open to everyone. As long as they submit their votes with the "real identity" and valid email addresses, these votes will be taken into account. In order to maintain a fairer online polling system, submissions with "made-up identity" and invalid email addresses will be considered void.

To many of you, especially those who were involved in the AEC projects, we are sure that you will be anxious to know the progress of the votes. Today, we are pleased to inform you that tentatively, as at Friday, 23 November 2007, the list of AEC projects with the highest votes are*:

Asia and Europe Money
Young Diplomats
Cultural Kaleidoscope 2007
Local Industry and Enterprise
Peace Project 2007
So quick, support your favourite AEC projects by submitting your votes online before it closes on Friday, 30 November 2007 at 12:00 midnight (GMT+08:00). Good luck!
Best regards

Angie Toh

Feedback from Joanna

2007-07-05T16:41:00.001+07:00

Nevertheless thanks again :) For us it was really a great experience to join you in your project. We really enjoyed it very much :) It was great fun.
Lots of work has been done but it was a pleasant one. We really enjoyed it very much.

Thanks to this cooperation they could visit money exhibiton, broaden our knowledge about the history of money in a museum as well as in the Net, and use new ICT tools such as slide maker or IVA that you have introduced to us.

What a nice certificate you have prepared for our students! Of course we will print it out for them as well. They will be given them as soon as they come back to school after summer holidays. :)

Wish you nice and sunny holidays

We had very interesting way to learn history, culture of countries-participants - through historic figures on banknotes.

Crossing of east&west cultures

2007-03-29T15:33:00.001+07:00

I was at seminar for trainer-teachers (22-23 rd of March). Our seminar was in very beatiful countryside (the name of this place is Sagadi). It was very interesting to see there the sculpture of sculptor from Singapure(Agatha Multor, the name of sculpture "Birds - from me to you"). Our cultures are crossed in unexpected place. I have sent picture of this sculpture to Angie Toh. Angie has written:"It is indeed amazing to see how our cultures have crossed. The sculpture reminds me of the Jurong Bird Park in Singapore where they have hundreds of bird species residing there. Perhaps Agatha Multor got the idea from there. "

Hi! and greetings to you all.
We are nineteen students from John Bauergymnasiet(John Bauer upper secondary) in the small town Ystad in the very south of Sweden, studying IT and Media. As a project in our Multimedia A course we have been assigned to this project. We are going to do two separate multimedia projects using the software Authorware from former Macromedia now owned by Adobe. First of all we are going to introduce ourselves to you all in a multimediaproject for the web that we are working on right now. After that we are going to start our work with the figures on the different bills from the countries involved in the AEC-project. If you are interested we can publish it on the web but we can also produce a CD or DVD and distribute by mail.

It provides a good opportunity for students to learn more about national currency of the countries involved. The project gives opportunities to use of ICT as well as develop ICT skills in internet, electronic encyclopedia, PowerPoint, e-mail, video conference between students and project supervisors of Asia & Europe, creation of project web-page, and discussion forum.
