Cyber-Wellness Talk @ Nan Chiau High School

25 Aug 2010. DISM year 2 students, JiaMing, Pravin and MingYi, together with DISM graduand, Andre, made their way to Nan Chiau High School. They were there to share the Cyber-Wellness talk, which covered cyber safety (e.g. care with cyber contacts) and how to manage cyber bullying, a current hot and favourite cyber topic on the internet. The ultimate aim was to promote a culture of safe and responsible use of online tools on the Internet.

"Personally, I am impress by the quality of your students who are able to compose them in front of a large audience. I strongly believe that this opportunity for your students to practice their presentation skills and at the same time share their knowledge with their juniors is very meaningful and educational." said Mr Goh Kar Whee, Subject Head / ICT.

Once again, we wanted to thanks all the DISM students in conducting the Cyber-wellness talk. While sharing the message of cyber-wellness, we hope to continue to inculcate volunteerism spirit in all our DISM students.

IBM Software Technical Conference

5 Aug 2010. A group of 6 DMIT year 2 students met up together with DMIT Senior Lecturer, Mr Karl Kwan, headed to One World Hotel in Kuala Lumpur to attend the IBM Software Technical Conference from 3 to 5 Aug, sponsored by IBM Singapore.

The objective of the trip was to learn about IBM technologies and to create an awareness of a successful career within the IBM ecosystem. The conference provided the delegates with many opportunities to learn about real world scenarios, case studies and implementation details and best practices from recognized leaders in the field of infocomm technology. In addition, the group also attended various hands-on labs and a chance to have a face-to-face dialogue with the by IBM Software Services Country .

"The IBM trip is an eye opener to the IT industry for us students who have little or no clue at all what it is about. From the trip itself, it has further proven to me that the IT industry is always rapidly developing and companies are always competing with one another from the many representatives worldwide. If given the chance to go to such wide scale conference, I will definitely grasp the chance to do so." Said Hao Wen, Year 2 DISM student.
