  On the last day of the programme, we reached our last two section, Prototype and Testing. In our prototype, we came up we a devise that is able to record the lesson and teacher's speech during lesson. We came with this devise cause we realised students would tend to miss some of teacher's speech, thus the teacher would have to repeat. to prevent the teacher from repeating, the student would just on the devise to record. When the student has reached home, they would just listen to the record.
  Not only that, when the student is feeling tired during class, he can just record in the device and try to listen to the lesson. In this way, the student can listen what happen in class at home.
  During the testing section, the interviewee came back and tested the s=device and found it useful for student. However, there was a disadvantage, if the student were to rely too much on the device, they might just record everything from the start of school till the end of school. So student must use it wisely and not take it for granted.

In the second lesson, we moved on to analyzing the answers given by the interviewee. We then sought out the answer in four groups, say, think, feel, do. From there we must find  a insight amoung the student. As for us, we found an insight. And that is student do not like to be nagged at. After that, we must find a solution to that problem.
Through many rounds of thinking we finally came up with a solution. And that is to find a way to make the student and teacher co-operate with each other. After we had found the solution to our problem, we started giving suggestions on how to do it. Having five intelligent brains, we made up a total of 28 suggestions! From there we pick out 1 of the most satisfying answer as our final answer.
In this lesson, I finally comprehend the meaning of design. It is not a one to two minutes process, but a process which takes time and effort. In this lesson, my favorite part was to come out with solution of our problem. We could write down any answers which appeared in our head.

In the program, I learnt that the word design is more than creativity or creating. It is a process where people will think deeper into the situation. In this program, we were given a topic"suggest a way to let the students and teacher to build a good relationship". 
At first I was very and was lost. But after the instructor's clear explanation, I understood and started contributing actively. We were assigned to write down question that we going to interview the interviewee. From there we can know what they think. Everyone started spilling out everything they thought of. 
After that, we were appointed each a interviewee. Now, we use the question we made up and started interviewing the interviewee. They gave us many and long answer which we noted down. We collected many information which was sufficient for the project. Due to time constraints, we stopped at there and continued the following week.
