  22. Reflection

  23. Momoko In this project, I have very deep feeling through this project. Firstly, know that being a good leader is not easy as what you think. Only the distribution of work is very difficult already. I should distribute our jobs evenly but also refer to their advantages like Joyce and Bonnie good at translation, Carmen good at data analyses and Hazel good at typing words. On the other hand, I’ve also understand Caritas more than before and a lot of information on the Diocese. This is one of the benefits that I have earned. Also, the collection of information was working in good process, as all of the readers can see we have newspaper, questionnaire and interview. This relies on our cooperative very much really. Lastly, I think I must say I feel very pound of being a leader of this group, I have cooperative members and I think our project is not the best in the class, but it is the best in the secondary school and give a special thank to all of my group members

  24. Joyce • Doing the cross-subject project, we need the use of time, finding the resources from different ways etc. Luckily, all of us can spend many time on this project. And I think cooperation between the members is most important. Our group has 5 members. All of us learning to be more cooperative with each others. So, we can do the work faster. And also, during we do the project, it can increase our relations.

  25. Carmen: • In this cross subject project, I have learned many things. I have learned the history of the diocese in Hong Kong, I have also learned how to do a good project. I know a good project needs the cooperation between us. Through the cooperation, we may share the work with the group members, then we may decrease the pressure of our own. Also, through this project, I have learned how to organize and analyze the information. • In fact, in this project, I can know more about my classmates. I feel that our leader, Momoko Lam, is very responsible. She is very hard-working. She knows that how to be a leader. I think she is a very friendly and easy-going person. The other members, Bonnie, Joyce and Hazel, are also very hard-working. They are very talkative; they give their opinions and ideas to the project. They are also very kind and friendly person. I feel very happy because I can work with them. • Although I am a catholic, I don’t know many about the Hong Kong Catholic Diocese. I just go to the mass every Sunday, and I don’t know much about it. Through this project, I find more and more information that I haven’t heard before and know before. This can help to build up my spiritual level also. I think being a Catholic, I should know more about my religious.

  26. Bonnie: • After doing this project, I knew more about the history of Catholic Diocese. Compared with other projects, it’s the biggest one that I had done. The most difference between this cross curriculum project and the other projects is that we need to find more information, and we need to cooperate more than the other projects. • Cooperation is not an easy job for five people in a group because we often get different ideas. However, we try to accept each other and combine all the ideas. Because of the atypical pneumonia, we cannot do the interview with priests and sisters. It’s a pity. If I have chance, I want to know more about their feelings to the catholic diocese. • Furthermore,. Before doing it, I didn’t notice much of the news of the catholic, but it is quite meaningful indeed. When we are doing our project, we also faced a lot of problems, we thanks for our teacher advisor, Ms T. Yeung and thanks God for giving us a good leader, Momoko. She is very responsible and she spent most of time on this project among five of us. In conclusion, I learn how to cooperate with others and many things about the catholic Diocese.

  27. Hazel: • After doing this project, I learned one thing that cooperation is very important. If we don’t cooperate, we can’t finish this project. Although we didn’t have much time to discuss, we try our best to stay at school to discuss, take our time to finish the project. • I don’t know whether this project is good or bad. But in my heart, I think is perfect, because in this project I can find cooperation, communication and trust in it. Especially trust, if we don’t trust each other that this project cannot be done. Even if we don’t have this three things-cooperation, communication and trust, just learn from experience, practice makes perfect.
