Students need to be well equipped with knowledge regarding the country as they will be the next generation to move the country forward.

2. Learning about current affairs is relevant in today’s society and it helps to promote critical thinking ]]> 2021-05-28 07:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567802592 Ngoc Quang https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567810233 1.Students should be up to date with current affairs , be it affecting them or not .

This will allow students to also voice out their beliefs and opinion to any changes being made by the government that could potentially affect their livelihood in the country.

I can infer from Source F that SkillsFuture courses are not that useful as the availability of jobs are solely dependent on the demand for workers of said workforce. This is seen as "You can be the best salesman with all kinds of awards and all kinds of courses under
your belt. But if no company needs you at that time, your worth to that company is zero, and they won't hire you.". Similarly, Source B says that skills learnt in the SkillsFuture courses did not affect the employer's decision in employing the man. This is seen as "He said it was some SkillsFuture thing. I didn't mind, so I hired him.". This tells me that the skills gained through the SkillsFuture courses did not provide  any significant benefit in the employment of the applicant. As Source E is contradicted by Source F ]]> 2021-05-28 07:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567852737 shi cheng 2nd paragraoh https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567856043 Source E is less reliable than source F as it is supported by source B.
source B is an electronics store owner who had hired the man with SkillsFuture skills as he needed someone who was bilingual and could do basic computing and wanted to fill in the spot. Opposingly, Source F is someone who has helped companies to find applicants for 4 years and mentions that "if no company needs you at that time, your worth to that company is zero and they won't hire you". I can infer from this that although SkillsFuture can help with basic knowledge, companies look for people with more than basic knowledge as they have more use for someone that is experienced in

Source F claims that it doesn't matter whether an applicant has attended a SkillsFuture course or not; it all depends on how desperately a company needs someone to fill a specific position. This can be seen in source B where "According to him, whatever that's helping him do his current job well wasn't learnt in school. He said it was some SkillsFuture thing. I didn't mind, so I hired him." This shows that the employer didn't care about whether the employee attended a SkillsFuture course. All that mattered was that the employee was able to fill in the position the employer needed him to fill. The employee being able to do it well due to attending a SkillsFuture course was an added bonus.]]> 2021-05-28 07:37:49 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567856912 2nd Nq https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567857812 Source E is less reliable than source F . Based on source B,it supports that taking up a course in Skillsfuture is not enough and ineffective]]> 2021-05-28 07:38:27 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567857812 Faris 2nd paragraph. https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567859903 Source E is less reliable than source F as source F is supported by source B. From source F, it tells us that it does not matter if the applicant goes through the Skillsfuture course or not as when the demand for workers is high, the workplace tends to just hire every applicant they get as they are in need. Similarly for source B, the intern can be bilingual and fix computer and other hardware are the main factors that the shop owner hired him. This is because the shop has many Chinese speaking clients and need someone who knows the language adequately. The intern did not undergo a Chinese language course in skills future but basic computer programming language and software that are not in need in the line of job. This means that skills future course does not necessarily give the graduate the job they learn from the course ]]> 2021-05-28 07:39:51 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567859903 ishana https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567864055 source e is less reliable than source f as it is supported by source in saying that the courses that skillsfuture provide are not useful]]> 2021-05-28 07:42:35 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567864055 Skyler https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567870490 source e is less reliable than sources f as source f is supported by source b, source f states that it dosent matter whether the person has attended skillsfuture or not.if they need someone they'll hire them if they dont then they dont. this can be backed up in source B from saying thats skillsfuture isnt enough. ]]> 2021-05-28 07:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567870490 ishana https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567873351 from source e i can infer that skills future courses are useful. this can be seen from “anyone looking for a job who has any skillsfuture course on their resume can convince any employer to hire them” this means that using skillsfuture courses will he useful for people applying for jobs as having skillsfuture courses on their resume is a plus point and will be beneficial for them as individuals looking for job opportunities. ]]> 2021-05-28 07:49:21 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567873351 Question 1d [Bryan Wong] https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567876073 Source E is less reliable than source F which is supported by source A. From source F, I can infer that it does not matter if an individual has Skillsfuture on his/her résumé. We can see this from “ it does not matter how many skills you have or how impressive your résumé is.” This means that companies do not rely on Skillsfuture for hiring an individual. Similarly in source A, I can infer that Skillsfuture does not land a job for an individual. We can see that from “ Your skillsfuture is baby stuff. Our company uses “C++” Haskel and Scala programming languages. Minimally.” And “I’m really sorry, but we’re done here. Let me show you the door. Thanks for coming” this means that Skillsfuture is not helpful and useful for people finding employment in Singapore. Since source F is supported by Source A, it makes source E more useful than source F  ]]> 2021-05-28 07:51:05 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567876073 Yahan-para2 https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567876477 Source E is less reliable than source F as source F is supported by source C, which implies that skillfuture course is not enough in preparing applicants for jobs that require a higher knowledge of understanding ]]> 2021-05-28 07:51:25 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567876477 2nd para Yiwen w2yiwenwang https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567878817 Source E is less reliable than source F as source F is supported by source C. From source C, I can infer that with just skills future courses is not enough to get someone a job WHY?? because it is more about whether the skills of the applicants fits what the company demands. This is seen from "applicants who have taken short introductory course (eg. Skills future courses) are strongly encouraged to further their studies in a university before applying to Google...If you apply, your application will be more vigorously screened." This means that not only there is no advantage using a skills future resume, in fact there will be higher requirement and the chances of being hired is also slimmer as skills future is just an introductory course. Therefore, this makes source E less reliable.]]> 2021-05-28 07:53:09 UTC https://padlet.com/atikkmekrat/9unm9v7itnou5u25/wish/1567878817
