DPA Mar 2014 – A Journey of Endless Discovery
:
To my
dearest DPA 2014 students!
It gives me great pleasure to welcome all of you to our most joyful EIR family.
Thank you for participating in this exciting journey of discovering the
wonderful world of the Internet. Wow! It
has been an amazing 7 years since we offer EIR to the 1st batch of
DPA students back in 2008. I have been
very privileged to be given this wonderful opportunity yet again to work with all
of you the awesome batch of DPA EIR students in 2014!
I am
truly excited and look forward to an exciting journey ahead with all of you. Together
we can make your EIR journey a meaningful and empowering one.
Just like
the ever-changing and dynamic Internet world, EIR has also evolved to suit the
changing needs of our students. This year 2014, we harness the power of social
media through collaborations with industry partners. I can’t wait to witness
the rich exchange of knowledge between all of you and several industry partners
as you virtually interview them on Google+Hangout to gather your research findings. You will promote awareness of your research topic
via Facebook and engage in active live sharing of peer feedback and comments via
Twitter during the final presentations. Oh yes, we will also learn beyond our
classroom via an exciting site visit cum education trip to
iExperience@Esplanade. There will also be engaging discussions and interactions
in class.
With the beginning of our EIR journey together, let us open up our hearts and
minds to enjoy learning and experience growth and development in our lives.
Allow me to be your teacher, coach, mentor and friend as I work to do my
best to develop the best potential in each one of you. Let the lessons learnt
fill up your hearts and minds like the drops of RAIN that fall on dry land to
turn it into a fertile land with green grass, trees and beautiful flowers and
fauna.
Check out
the inspirational quotations from your senior EIR students who have experienced
the joy of learning together with our warm EIR family during the October 2013
semester. Enjoy your exciting EIR
journey of awesome research endeavours!
Your friend,
Ms
