Infocomm Club
Teacher-in-charge: Mr Tan Kian Boon, Mr Gi Soong Chee
Infocomm Club was set up in Mar 2006 under the auspices of IDA Singapore in terms of funding and support.
Our Club Mission :
To empower our pupils with infocomm skills so that they are able to cope with the new digital age.
Our Club Vision:
An enriching learning journey which expands the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of pupils through the application of infocomm.
Infocomm is all about new challenges and opportunities. An industry that is growing at a rapid pace, Infocomm is a collection of the different industries that play an important part in creating, distributing, storing, and managing information. Infocomm is more than just Information Technology (IT), it is a whole new world which allows you to use your skills and make them into awesome careers such as Digital Media Careers, Software & Applications Careers, Network & Communications Careers, Infocomm Research & Development Careers. In the near future, Infocomm will play a major role in improving technology, education and the delivery of services across the globe; this is especially so in Singapore.
To make sure that Singapore stays ahead as the best location for infocomm business, it is important to have a strong local infocomm workforce. The Infocomm Club is set up for Dunman High School pupils who are keen in IT, want to stay ahead and achieve success with infocomm.
In 2006, Infocomm Club members received IT skills training in such programmes as Macromedia Fireworks and Macromedia Dreamweaver. IT skills training in such programmes as Macromedia Flash to create animation clips, videos clips and games is currently being conducted. To raise awareness of new innovation in the area of IT, the club members attended seminars such as Proof of Concept (POC) Lab, Grid Computing, visit to iFuture, as well as workshops such as Robocode and Robodesign conducted at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Infocomm club members were also selected to go for work attachment in an IT related company during June school holidays.
We hope that all the activities we have provided for the pupils would effectively prepare them for the new digital age.
