4. Problems We Had To Overcome
Feeling awkward: At the beginning, there were a lot of works to do, we became very worried, didn’t know where to start. Under the instruction of teacher, we got used to it and got things straight. Time limited: Three students in team are in Grade Two this year. They have more lessons and are stressed. So we have to collect materials, write papers on weekends. Lack of experience: Although this is the second time we participated in webpage-making competition, our computer skill has a tendency to decline over time. There were always times in process we could not manage this. And also, it was a mission impossible for us to make an English version web site with only a modest grasp of the language. So we had to ask Talent&Story Company’s staffs for help. Lack of IT knowledge: The mountain is lack of computer hardware, and the members are lack of knowledge, but it is lucky that school administrators make room for the computer in the office; they also provide us with a laptop to complete the project. Instructor had training for the members who will take part in CyberFair, to guide players to find information online, learned related technology about web production.

Through the efforts of more than a month, we collected the basic data together, despite the web page was very bad at the beginning, after repeated revisions, we finally finished it, looking at our own hand-made page, everyone was happy, although this was not the final work, we enjoyed ourselves in the whole process, we are tired and happy in the process, if there are opportunities in the future, we will never miss. We believe that there is a harvest to pay. Through the making of project “Wanan Primary School on the move”, we benefit a lot, I think we this generation of young students should have a wide range of hobbies and elegant taste; at the same time, we should cherish the youth to study hard, in order to achieve the dream of the great Chinese. This time we feel the deepest is that people is our best teachers.
