tyty:D

Congratulations to SuperMouse for clinching champion of the Cutest Micromouse in Division 1!

To all participants, don't be too disheartened for the main category. Treat this as a learning experience and try harder for the next micromouse competition! After-all, I believed what's most important is that you have tried your best and gained valuable experience from this competition. Remember to do an after-action review debrief together so as to improve the next time! =D






Cheers!

HELLO! hahahah

Sec 3s "supervising" the sec 1s :D

Nothing much to say la... but the only thing really worth watching on wed was Christabel's bot! Her first few segments super zai, she do program, i edit one segment and the final product:

and it is time this batch steps down.
soon.
It will be handover this friday.

REMEMBER THIS:
Regardless of the post you get, whether you like it or not, just do the best you can with it.'
Good luck, you'll need it.

Things to take note of this week that involves most of you:
Tuesday 31/3/09: Interview.
Wednesday 1/4/09: Standard cca session, last official cca session for sec4s as seniors.
Friday 3/4/09: Handover. Sec4s step down, considered alumni.
Wednesday 8/4/09: Last time sec4s will have a cca session.

Well, i guess this will be my last official post as a member of the club.

These are some photos that i took during cca on wed. Yup, secretly took w/o the consent of the people in it. That's what makes photo-taking so fun!! :D and irritating too :P

Sianz... tried to upload pics den put caption below, but failed :(
So no choice, stick with the caption at the side for the time being hor.

okay that's all.
anyone keen on training rgp on saturday?
;D

just tell me.
FYI.
tell me if you want anything posted

Okay, I admit that this post is weird, but teachers want it up. It's about the chinese translations of the various commonly used terms of Robotics.

Robotics Club-机器人学俱乐部
Programmer-程序员
Download program-下载程序
Run a program-运行程序
RoboRacer-机器人竟赛者
Micromouse-微老鼠
Obstacle-障碍物
Maze-迷宫
Racing Track-赛车跑道
Build robots-修造机器人
Construct robots-修建机器人
Complete obstacle course-完成障碍桩
Parts-零件
Tools-工具
Programming a robot-编程机器人
CCA-课外活动
Firmware-固件
Software-软件

Just because it's in CHINESE doesn't mean it's not worth reading. Later those chinese visitors come then you all dunno how to communicate we GG. Just know at least some of them will do. This is for your general knowledge. Oh, and 人非圣贤，孰能无过. If you find anything wrong or inappropriate, leave a comment at the tagboard.

Okay guys, this is to inform you of a slight change in schedule. From now on, CCA will be held on:

Wednesdays:
2.30pm-5.30pm

Fridays:
2.00pm-5.30pm

Dismissal time may vary due to unforeseen circumstances.

Hi guys, I guess most of you would not read on when you see the title and pretend you don't know anything about it, but I am still going to write on and you are going to pay up. We will collect funds for both the CCA and the farewell party.

CCA fund: $5
Farewell Party fund: $30

Meet up outside Robotics CCA room on Thursday, 23th October 2008, to pass the money to the treasurer.

NOTE THAT A FINE OF $1 WILL BE IMPOSED IF NO VALID REASONS PROVIDED FOR NOT HANDING IN THE MONEY ON TIME.

okay, for those who haven't heard rumours,
friday IS GAMES DAY FOR AHSRC :O :D :) :D (:
okay, all of you are to report as early as possible to the robotics room.
most likely we'll be playing GAMES, so wear PE.
okay that's all.
cca will end at 4pm sharp because of some chinese festival.

This is a notice to remind the people who are involved in RoboGP competition,ROBO-ONE, that the Robotics Room will be opened on Monday and Tuesday, 1st and 2nd September 2008, for you to train. Please note that ALL members involved in the competition are to be present on Monday and Tuesday.

Members involved in NJRC are also to come on Monday to return me your consent forms. For those who have not received the second consent form, you are to come on Monday to take it from me and return it on the following day, Tuesday.

If you still have any doubts, email me or contact the Vice-Chairmans.

-Chairman, Kia Qian

This is a reminder to inform all of you that there will be CCA on Monday from 1:30pm to 4:30pm.

-KiaQian

Hi all, it's me again, and it has been quite some time that I posted something. Here's the big deal, I am posting the groupings for the September RoboGP competition: ROBO ONE. The people whose names are listed below are selected to be involved in this competition.

Team One:
Jack, Justin, JiaSheng
KiaQian, Marc, ZhiLin
Team Two:
AaronPoh, JiaQing, QianYi
Amanda, HuiZhen, Christabel

If you feel that my explanation and phrasing is too profound for you, you may NOT feel free to approach me as I do not have a phone with me currently, making me barricaded from the rest of the world. However, you may feel free to approach Marc or Aaron.

-Your happy-that-we-can-finally-train-RoboGP Chairman, Kia Qian

It has been brought to my attention that CCA rules have not been seriously adhered to.

Therefore I and Kia Qian would carry out the punishments when applicable.

**A gentle reminder to rule number 11 (click here for list of CCA rules - NOTE: school rules apply, e.g tuck in shirt, AHS socks, etc), many have ignored this rule-punishments will be carried out accordingly starting from the next CCA session. So I seek your co-operation in maintaining the CCA rules.


Thank You.

-Aaron-

in another non-robotics related post
this is proof that one, can access the tagboard WITHOUT logging in.



qu4dcore.

To all NJRC participants:

*NOTE: Transport will not be provided

**EDIT: Only NJRC participants are to meet outside robotics room at 1440 and hand in the consent forms to me.

CCA tees will then be handed to you after you return form Science Center / next CCA session.

Thank You.

-Aaron

Okay guys...there is something that I wish to share with you all. On Thursday morning, LeeHao challenged me to a one-on-one match of 7 points.
Guess what?
I won!
7-0!
LeeHao can bury his face in the ground liaoz...
act zai somemore...

*This is nothing related to CCA and is just another random post.

-Your owning-LeeHao-and-feeling-good Chairman

oh wow,
yet another post.
anyway.
this is the format for reflections:

4 learning points,
4 feeling points,
1 suggestion.

you can write more, up to you,
nothing less though

ok. first i'll start of with something cool.

many of you,
are IT noobs
yes NOOBS.
LOL.
if you haven't found out,
the tagboard, CAN be accessed without logging in.
and of course,
i'll bet you're wondering how it works.
think harder,
it'll eventually reach your head,
if you aren't the noob that you're supposed to be.
lol.

ok next thing.
cca tees.
coming on monday.
material=dry fit.
that's all.

oh well posting now. :O
as you can see,
there's an age counter on the right of the blog.
:O
and anyway.
there's a purpose for it.
its for all of you, to see how old you are.
since you're such old ppl,
why spam the blog,
don't be childish.
LOL.

ok the new skin done by me officially works on IE!
yes, you can use IE now.
lol.
happy. =.=
but i think firefox is still the best.

i hereby encourage all of you to use firefox to view this site. lol
it doesn't work well at all on IE.
so i think u shld download firefox to view the site properly.
http://filehippo.com/download_firefox/download/126cc4873ce8b1a902d1e3be232b9649/


P.S. Firefox1,2,3>IE6,7,8,9....
-marc

does anyone want to know their user and pass =.=

anyone who wants to tag, needs an account.
those who have NO idea what their username and password is,
pls sms/msn me.
yes,
its REQUIRED to tag.
ok. well. that's all.
oh and a new ip-tracking system has been installed into the html code,
by me.
yah.
so don't think of trying anything funny.
disciplinary measures will be taken if you like, go spam.
ok.
sharing of accounts is also not allowed

-marc.

ok. today, those 2 people who apparently ran away, will be punished. just

oh there's a new rule.
so just FYI.

doctoring of official information or documents
this results in 30 pumpings straight.

for EXAMPLE.
lets say u wrote something on the whiteboard.
and we're not happy with it.
down u go :O

another example.
lets say..
we wrote things on the whiteboard.
u erase it/ part of it.
down u go again :O..

oh and if we find out that ANY of you didn't check the blog every 2 days.
or never go get updated from friends,
its 30 pumping too.
and if those friends pass you WRONG information,
they pump 60.

-marc

In a bid to make this place less dead,
alnd more lilvely,
i shall update.a

From now onwards, i shall try to update this blog once every 2 days or something,
for now, that's all.

Marc. :O

oh.
for those laggers who don't read the tagboard,
CCA starts this monday, 23/6/08.

-Marc.

READ THIS:

There is no such thing as maximum no. of pumpings that can be given, and as for now, 60 pumping per CCA session is the maximum. If the no. of pumping given to you is more than 60, the remainder is transferred to the next cca session, where 60 is also the maximum. SO ON AND SO FORTH.

~Marc

BE REMINDED THAT THERE IS NO CCA ON MONDAY 16/6/08
THERE IS ALSO NO CCA ON FRIDAY 20/6/08.

EDITED.READ AGAIN.

~Marc.

The Anglican High School Robotics Club (AHSRC) blog was created to keep members updated about events happening in between sessions so as to decrease the lack of communication and failure to notify members about upcoming members in time.

Past attempts had been made to tackle this problem but to no avail. There was the method which I called the "Calling Method", where seniors had to waste their precious time and money just to ring up members one by one. This proved to be very troublesome, tiring and time-consuming, depriving the seniors of play and sleep sometimes. There was also another method which was the "Call-And-Pass" method which consists of seniors calling a selected group of people and then these people will call other members and the message gets passed around. This also proved to be useless. "To err is human...", some members forgot to ring up other members and thus the message was cut off.

Finally after much careful deliberation, we, the second batch of committee, had came up with the idea of using a blog, where information is just minutes away. Members can simply turn on their computers and connect to the internet and read. This idea was came up by the previous batch but was not put to good use. Now, we had succeeded in making the blog and also patched up the lack of communication. We also enjoyed our fruits of labour.

This blog was created specially for seniors to come and update members in a highly efficient way. By asking members to check the blog daily, we achieved the goal of communicating everyday, even during the holidays. Members were also given a tagboard to voice out their comments so that we, the committee, can further improve on our system of communication.
HOWEVER, from what we can see, the tagboard has not been put to good use and lately there had been SPAMS from the 3Us people: UN-accomplished, UN-honourable, and UN-servant-leader-like. By talking crap on the tagboard and disrupting others from reading the correct information, they are UN-accomplished. By pointing fingers at others when and making a joke out of them, they are UN-honourable. Lastly, by making a joke out of the tagboard, they are not respecting the seniors and their hard work for creating the blog, thus making them UN-servant-leader-like.

THUS, WE HAD DECIDED TO IMPLEMENT A NEW RULE. THIS RULE TACKLES THE PROBLEM OF SPAMMING: NO SPAMMING ON THE TAGBOARD OF AHSRC BLOG.
PUNISHMENTS: 30 PUMPING. NUMBER OF REPEATED OFFENSE WILL TIMES THE PUNISHMENTS (E.G. 30X2, 30X3, 30X4, ETC...)
BY USING THE TERM "SPAMMING", WE REFER TO MORE THAN 3 TAGS COMING FROM THE SAME PERSON IN A ROW.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

-Your not-so-happy-with-the-spams Chairman, Kia Qian

All of you who are going to the Vex Workshop are to hand up your Vex consent form(s) and the edusave form. These forms are to be handed in during the chalet to Aaron Poh or KiaQian. It is a MUST, or the payments won't be able to be processed in time for the workshop. If you can't make it to the chalet, you have to find some day to hand the forms in. This of course, means that you must come back to school during these holidays and hand up the form. All consent forms are to be handed in by 12/06/08.

Any queries, feel free to contact me on msn or my hp.

-Marc.

For those taking involved in the Vex Training, (Names are in other post - VEX Training) please come down to the robotics room whenever you are free to collect the Consent From as long as it's before the Vex Training Date (17 & 18 June). You are advised to contact me (Aaron Poh-82373313/62438303) to confirm when you are coming.

For more information concerning the Vex Training, please refer to previous post. Thank You.

-Aaron-

The reserves are Gerald and Melina, which means that if any one of the four fail to attend the course, either Gerald or Melina would take their place and participate in the training.

After the Mid-Year Examinations, there will be NXT Training for a few people by professionals. The dates are confirmed to be on 21 and 22 May 2008, which is on a Wednesday and Thursday. This only applies to the selected as listed: Amanda Tan 3K, Phua Kia Qian 3F, Tan Lee Hao 2J and Joe Lee 1G. Further information will be posted as soon as possible. These people are to make yourself free on the training days. After which, you are to teach the rest of the club on what you have learnt. You are, in one way or the other, their teachers now. This will be vital as the secondary ones and twos are taking part in the NJRC and they need to know how to use and programme the NXT program by themselves. There would not be any seniors there to guide you so it means that you are completely on your own. Thus, I urge the secondary ones and twos to pay special attention to the people teaching.

-Your very wonderful Chairman, Kia Qian

About 3 years back, I was still a Sec 1, a fresh graduate of Fengshan Primary School. I enrolled into AHS with a relatively high T-score compared to the general cohort and was also 8th position for PSLE T-score in FSPS. During the Dec holidays when I was still Pri 6, I participated in the Orientation Camp. I escaped the choir audition by trying out softball. I passed the session and was enlisted into their CCA. However, few weeks later, we were given a form to select our CCA choices, ranking them in your own preference from 1 to 5. Being ingenuous at that time, I thought I was not in softball and thus, I felt like trying out something new and hence, wrote Robotics as my first choice of CCA. It was its first year as a core CCA. On that very day, my fate has been set.

After another week or so, class lists were being pasted on our class notice-board about the CCA that each of us had been posted. For Aaron Elton and I, we both were in the same class since Sec 1 and both also had been posted to Robotics. I can still now recall vividly on what happened during our first CCA session. At that time which was 3 years back from now, our CCA room was actually the current The Eagles' Nest (TEN). Each of us slowly reported for CCA punctually and were welcomed by Mrs Tan and a few boxes of LEGO. She briefed us and we soon were given the task of sorting LEGO. Throughout the sorting session, the ambience was tranquil and serene with almost null conversation between my batch. Subsequently, after several questions, we know each other better and also made good friends with our seniors at that time.

About 2 years back, I was given the designation as "Head of RoboGP". I was only a Sec 2. Taking up this post means more things to do and plan. As my batch is the first core batch, we have been involved in a lot of planning and they do prove useful as learning experiences. I had to come up with training schedules, be well informed about RoboGP (competitions) and also handle all the logistics with regards to RoboGP. During that year, the current Sec 3s come in. Welcoming them, we interacted much with them as the population of the club was still very little. Together, we took part in various competitions and were sent to attend workshops held by external vendors. We also had trainers for competition such as NJRC etc.

About 1 year back, I felt uneasy wearing the long pants. I notice a trend - as we grow older, the boys' pants will be longer while the girls' skirts will be somehow shorter. It felt peculiar to wear those long pants as I feel much warmer in them. Shortly, we were all used to wearing them. Being Sec 3s, we were already now the seniors of the club and of course, the current Sec 2s join us. At that instance, we were indeed having an increment in our population. During July, I was elected as the Chairman of the Robotics Club. Indeed, quoted from 2002 Spiderman movie, "With great power comes great responsibility". I was immediately given advice and guidance from the former chairmen and alumni. From there, I learnt more about agendas, minutes, admin things, proposals, AAR and so on. All those began to be part and parcel of my life as a CCA Leader. One of the main events that I organised with my batch was the Farewell Party Camp in school.

About 3 months back, we welcomed our new Sec 1s and also had the welcome party which was apparently, one of the last few activities that my batch had to plan other than the handover. By this time, all of us had grown. The Sec 1s who came in 2 years back are now already Sec 3s, the seniors of the club. They will soon takeover the club from our hands.

About 3 weeks back, I had conducted the interview and handover ceremony. Now, the Sec 3s are being empowered to bring our CCA to greater heights. I have seen them grow since they were Sec 1s, so cute and innocent to being Sec 3s, where maturity had already kicked in. They are now able to plan, execute and do most of the decision making. Now, it will be also their turn to be working hand in hand with the teachers and among themselves. Of course, I had a meeting with them, passing down all related documents and guide them on their jobscope etc.

Today is my last day for CCA. Indeed, these 3 years and 3.5months had just passed by within a flash. There were times when even I, the former chairman of Robotics Club, felt languid about attending CCA. Yet, there were also times when I felt very enthusiastic and zealous about my CCA. It was tough trying to balance both my studies and CCA. One has to be committed in both aspects. As said by Mdm Hidayah, our journey had been "full of ups and downs" but it had more ups than downs. Being the first batch of core committee was rugged too, as the Chairman, I had to be responsible for my people and I was given a committee of 10 to lead. I also had to draw a line on many things. Personally, I feel that my days in AHSRC had been fruitful and fun. Thanks a lot for all and this opportunity to be your Chairman (2007 - 2008) and I hope that I have done my part well in bringing Robotics Club onto greater height. We were always deemed as a slack CCA but in fact, we are not. I hope that you people can correct this misconception of theirs. It was also through AHSRC where I learnt teamwork, time management, strategies and so on.

Indeed, I came up with those sabotaging programs for LEGO RCX and used them before to our opponent for fun. I will always remember the competitions that I took part with you guys and this nickname - "小K" that you guys give me. During NJRCs, I can remember those bored moments while waiting for the runs, yet freezing in the Science Center and being quarantined together. This year's RGP holds the most memory. Thanks for teaching me how to play CS and allowing me to play your laptops when mine was away in repair. I learnt how to use a Magnum sniper rifle in dust2 map. For the IRO2007, I will always remember Justin's idol and the intense argument which we had with the judges. Thanks for those who came to support us too in the competitions! Thanks everyone! =D

Now, it's the new committee who are running the Club. Please learn from the mistakes which my committee had made and work to improve them. All the best people! Do seek my advice if you guys encounter any problems or have any doubts. Both the teachers and I have high expectations of you all. I believe you guys can do it. ^^

Yours truly
SK
AHSRC Chairman (2007 - 2008)
