4. Problems We Had To Overcome
A: Website Construction Department of Business Management cooperated with Department of Data Processing in this competition. Department of Business Management is responsible for interview and data collection, while Department of Data Processing is for website construction. We cooperated and helped each other by offering suggestions and assistance, handing in coded data to them. B.Jos Assignment We assigned jobs in accordance to everyone’s specialty. In this way, we can get jobs down efficiently and make it best to every detail. If one crew member need assistance, the member who finished his works will assist those who didn’t. Thus, all the jobs will finish perfectly as schedule. C.Pressure of Studies While doing the project, we still have daily courses and preparation for English Proficiency Test held by Commercial Vocation Education Society and Techficiency Quotient Certificate in Excel. Thus, while doing them both, we feel stressful on account of intensive preparation tests. Besides, in order to pass the TQC, our supervisors requested that we all students should stay to practice after school. Hence, we only have trifle of time to complete the project. D.Spending weekend to do the project At the beginning, our parents could not understand why we discuss the project in the weekend. After school, we still use computer to gather data through internet. Though, in the process of the project, they casted a doubt on us and understood us after the negotiation. Until now, parents would provide us assistance when we need it. We show our great gratitude to our parents!

6. How did your activities and research for this CyberFair Project support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards?
We utilized the word 2010 and excel 2010 to finish the data and graph parts. Though we have learned the basic skills at school, we did brush up the skills and understood the software better through the project. Besides, we realized how important the communication is. At the beginning, we did not realize the benefit that Shing-Long company did to the industry of towel. The information from the internet is not that correct. In order to find the correct information, we did visit the company, which gave us more understanding of the history and the industry itself. While doing survey, we know that the artistic towel industry haven’t reached its Golden Age yet. We clearly noticed that it is the starting point of the transformation of the industry. It is the meaning of this project that we learn its perseverance. We combine the Marketing and Introduction to Business. We can apply SWOT, and marketing strategy. The knowledge in the textbook is fragment which we can’t apply it to practice. Though the case study of successful industry is mentioned in the textbook, it does not provide further analysis of its factors to success. With field visit, we connect the information in print with practice and find the information in the textbook may not reflect the real situation which can unleash the truth to the public. Yuda High School of Commerce and Home Economics is situated in Song-Shang area, nurturing the new generation of vocational high school students. Each department makes us combine our interest and specialty. With the advanced internet technology, it is more efficient to search data through internet than in library. Compared to search in Library, Internet archive offers wider variety of updated information. Thus, we know the differences between teaching through internet and traditional lecture.
