The 1st week of EIR seem to breeze past real fast. Guess time flies when we are having fun. This Oct 2011 semester, we are all really excited to welcome so many EIR students from diversed Diplomas across Temasek Poly. We celebrate the diversity of learning, sharing and exchanging ideas amongst students from different disciplines and perspectives.

Yes, EIR classes during the 1st week have been really fun as students warmed up to one another via social media tools for research. During the “Knowing Me Knowing You” ice-breaking activity, students were treated to a fun and lighted exercise of figuring out about the best metaphor that best describe the best of themselves! In EIR we believe in bringing out and developing the best in each one of our students and inspire them to do well in the subject.

Students who share similar hobbies can actually start contacting one another if they are game enough to enjoy doing the hobbies together. This week students had a glimpse of what research is all about as they use some of the social media tools to virtually connect and collaborate with one another.

Find out about what EIR students think about research as they begin their EIR journey during their 1st week of study. Its interesting to note that some of our students’ thinking that Research = Google as seen in our wiki site http://eir-rawkz.wetpaint.com/page/Knowing+Me+Knowing+You+%28Oct+11+Sem%29

Hmm, as they journey deeper into EIR, students will be pleasantly surprised to learn that there are so many other research tools other than Google, that are available in the market today. Stay tuned to unravel more of the wonders of research in the coming weeks of your awesome EIR journey!
