Work+Agenda

1) Research more findings on Future Schools · Brief intro to future schools  · Identify evidence or source that states that future schools aim to promote alternative forms of learning  o Eg. Kinaesthetic, Visual, Audio, Independent etc  · State the Advantages of the relevant forms of learning  · State the Disadvantages of the relevant forms of learning  · Mention how we can adapt the learning points of future schools to our ideas  1) Research more findings on the severity/existence of problem of lack of sleep among teens · Reasons for lack of sleep (We will try to identify that poor time management and work overload are the main reasons, so that our ideas will then be relevant) · Conduct a survey (We may choose to use our prelim survey done some time ago on 42 students, although it may not be reliable because the participants did not state their age and name) · Interview Dr Lim Li Ling from Singapore Sleep Society

2) Finalize details inside Sleep Organizer · Introduction to sleep  o Importance of sleep  o Harm of lack of sleep  · Achieve good quality sleep  o Introduce good quality sleep (Eg. How it can be useful when sleeping time is short) o Ways of getting good quality sleep  · What the sleep planner is all about  o What does it do  o How to use it  o Benefits of doing so

3) Trial for sleep organizer · Just make a sample of the organizer and show it around and ask for feedback  · Prepare papers containing the sleep planner section to let the participants try out planning their sleep over 5 days (So, we don’t have to produce so many books. This is to evaluate if planning the sleep actually helps)

4) Manufacturing the Sleep Organizer · Company: Paterson Lin (18apparels@gmail.com)  · Approach them to request for cost projections to produce the organizer  · Finalize quantity to produce  · Design of the organizer (May affect cost of manufacturing)

5) Power Nap/Quality sleep workshop · Approach Professor Michael W L Chee to seek his opinion, and whether he is able and willing to conduct such workshops  · Research on benefits of power nap and quality sleep

6) Plan out the trial details · What to do during the trial  · State what we hope to achieve by conducting the trial, so that the trial results support our proposal. (Eg. Assess whether kinesthetic learning is effective in teaching power napping skills
