his Final-Year-Project (FYP) catalogue is created in conjunction with the annual exhibition produced by NTU Libraries to showcase project works of graduating students

from the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication & Information (WKWSCI).

The diversity of the topics chosen for these 53 FYPs is a reflection of the wide-ranging nature of communication studies.

Many of these students chose to investigate topics that were close to their hearts, going beyond learning and showcasing their technical skills.

Through these FYPs, you will find that the WKWSCI Class of 2013 is a group of civic-minded and socially-engaged graduates.

This exhibition hopes to feed you with both food for thought and entertainment – when you are going to devote up to a year on a project, what will you choose? More importantly, how will you choose?

We invite you to take a closer look at what other students have done, and to see how they have made their choices, via their FYP reports deposited in NTU’s Digital Repository (DR-NTU).

Think about how you would be choosing your own projects, jobs, or whatever it is that you want to do. Are you aware of how you think, and how you make decisions? Keep these questions in mind, as you learn more about yourself, and the world around you.

Meanwhile, happy exploring!

Exercise or Else:How Goal Framing and Language Tone Affect Exergame Messaging via Psychological Reactance

Protein Supplements –The Right Whey

This study aims to determine if goal framing and language tone in instructional material can affect message persuasiveness through psychological reactance. An intervention programme design was employed on international students between the ages of 10 and 19 in Singapore. Results showed that loss framing and dogmatic language are two of the message features that can trigger perceived threats to freedom and state reactance, which could cause a boomerang affect in attitude and behaviours.

The main aim of the campaign is to educate youths in Singapore to consume protein and protein supplements safely and responsibly. Targeting active tertiary students, the campaign had two main aspects in its execution – online presence and offline activation. The main drivers for the campaign’s online presence were the website and Facebook page. Online engagement activities such as contests and accessible content built an audience-base that was tapped into for the offline activation. Activities held during the roadshows were integrated with online drivers to ensure that conversion of target audience to active participants was sustained throughout the entire campaign.

HEALTH The way you think, the way you behave, the way you eat, can influence your life by 30 to 50 years.

This campaign aims to get parents to prepare a healthy breakfast for their children by raising their awareness of the importance of a healthy breakfast, educating parents on what constitutes a healthy breakfast, and ensuring that the parents are committed to preparing a healthy breakfast for their children. Parents with children aged 4 to 12 were the campaign’s primary target audience group; children aged 4 to 12 were the secondary target audience.

HEALTH

Nutrition or ‘signpost’ labelling provides information to consumers to assist them in making healthier food choices. While many components of product packaging can influence consumers’ product evaluation, front-of-pack (FOP) nutrition labelling and country-of-origin (COO) labels are two categories of cues that have been identified as strong influencers of consumer evaluations. This research looked at the information on these labels and its implication on health communication policy.

Aimed at young adults aged 21 to 30, the campaign hopes to empower them with fertility knowledge to make more informed decisions towards future family planning. The creative concept of using fairytales gave the campaign a holistic approach where related issues such as marriage, family and personal choices were discussed.

Finding My Balance

The Happiness Revolution:Live Life Now

Finding My Balance is a feature writing project that centralises around the overarching theme of work-life balance. The package opens up with the aim to introduce the ubiquitous, yet vague concept of work-life balance by gathering opinions on three levels – the government, the company and the individual – to write the story. Next, it delves into further details about how both low-income earners and students develop their sense of balance. Finally, it looks at non-PMEB industries and the struggle of workers to attain their brand of balance.

The Love, Me Campaign –A Movement to Promote Positive Body Image

Targeted at female college students aged 18 to 24, this campaign aims to promote positive body image as a preventive measure against eating disorders. Primary and secondary research has found Singaporean college women to be dissatisfied with their bodies. As a result, they strive to be thinner due to the perceived social and cultural preference for thinness. Studies have also pointed to poor self-esteem as an important predictor of body image concerns, dieting, disordered eating, and eating disorders, which suggests improving self-esteem as an effective preventive measure. As such, the “Love, Me” campaign sought to take on a self-esteem-based approach to build women’s resilience against the unrealistic societal body image ideal presented in the media.

《为你而舞》For You, I Dance

Understanding Mobile Dating in Singapore

For You, I Dance is a film set in 1960s Singapore and tells the tale of two individuals who are secretly in love. Ah Da is a quiet-natured and reserved delivery boy who makes deliveries to the home of a dancer, Miao Tai Tai. He is instantly attracted to her but keeps his feelings locked away. Miao Tai Tai notices his timid and shy disposition as well as his subtle inclination for dancing, so she begins to teach him how to dance. Their growing relationship soon faces societal pressure, and Miao Tai Tai is forced to make a decision.

This exploratory study examines how Singaporean mobile dating users strategically market themselves and manage their romantic interactions in this mediated dating environment, as well as the impact of mobile dating and privacy concerns raised by disclosing personal and location information. As mobile dating services gains popularity in Singapore, it becomes a suitable context to study the motivations and implications behind this emerging phenomenon.

ROMANCE The easiest kind of relationship for me is with 10,000 people. The hardest is with one.

The campaign sets out to inspire and empower Singaporean undergraduates to build, foster and sustain healthy romantic relationships. It did so with particular focus on communicating the values of such a relationship by enabling personal growth. This was in response to extensive survey findings that pointed to a conflict between Singaporeans’ pragmatic priorities and instinctive desire for love.

Look, Ma:A Public Communication Campaign to Encourage Parents to Spend More Time Listening to Their Children

The “Look, Ma” campaign aims to promote awareness among parents with children between the ages of 0 and 10, about the importance of playtime and a self-created childhood in the lives of children. This was the first-ever research conducted, in partnership with the Association of Early Childhood Educators Singapore (AECES) and the National Institute of Education (NIE), on children in Singapore to uncover their understanding of childhood. Look, Ma’s significance lies in being one of the first local projects, if not the pioneer project, in emphasizing childrens’ voices and their rights for a stake in their childhood.

FAMILY The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives.

This photojournalism project documents the lives of various types of families in Singapore. The Singapore government has made no secret of what it considers to be the ideal Singaporean family. There are no official statistics but the occurrence of a ‘normal’ family as defined by the government has decreased in recent years. But just because these families deviate from the government’s definition of family does not make them any less of one.

Tadpoles

Tadpoles is a short film exploring the theme of family relationships, particularly that of contemporary Asian families. The effects of strained family relationships – even if they occur between just two family members – are usually felt throughout the household. Yet, the very forces that divide a family are also the ones that can bring them back together again.

The Silver Yarn Project:Campaign to Promote Intergenerational Bonding between Youths and Grandparents

Primary and secondary research has shown that while Singaporean youths know the importance of intergenerational relationships, many lack the motivation to foster stronger ties with their grandparents. By first encouraging greater interaction with the closest elderly person in their lives, The Silver Yarn Project aims to encourage youths to build a better relationship with their aged family members and in the long run, create a more positive mind-set towards the elderly. Targeted at youths aged 19 to 26, the project employed the theme of storytelling to encourage youths to forge stronger bonds with their grandparents or elderly persons in their lives.

20-Somethings

20 -Somethings is a show about six friends who are at vastly different stages of their lives, even though they are all twenty-something. Ken and Jaime are navigating the tricky path of marriage and parenthood. Ken’s goofy brand of love constantly clashes with Jaime’s tough-love approach, and it’s driving her crazy though they love each other deeply. Derek is a prodigious lawyer coming to grips with establishing himself in a field where academic success does not necessarily get one to the top. Yam is a cynic pursuing a childhood dream of stardom, while Arnesh is an adult that still sees the world through a kid’s overprotected eyes. Jason is the only one acting his age, as his predominant concerns are getting laid or wasted, preferably both.

ARTS Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

This study takes an exploratory and qualitative approach in examining the necessity, benefits and feasibility of a film literacy programme in the local context. It examines the potential of using film to teach values and sociocultural insights in Singapore, as well as the effectiveness of an ahistorical filmic and constructivist pedagogical approach in teaching film literacy.

Storyteller’s Tale:Journey of a Scribe

Mixtape Vol 1 takes an in-depth look at the local music scene through interviews and conversations with local artists. The music community in Singapore can be described as a clique, an exclusive group of people with different expertise banding together and promoting each other. Local musicians share a common goal of wanting to make a name for Singapore artists both domestically and internationally. Rather than trying to find a “Singapore sound”, local artists are reflecting the growing global outlook of music.

Socially awkward and frumpy Charlotte Najera is often overlooked when she is standing next to her pretty and successful best friend Fiona Wright. Working at BookEnds, a small but successful bookstore owned by an almost reclusive older man, Patrick, allows Charlotte to fade away into the woodwork and avoid embarrassing social situations. Spending all her day at work means Charlotte hears Patrick’s stories about Arcadis over and over again, a tale Charlotte writes off as fictional until the day she walks through a mysterious door at the bookstore and ends up stranded in another world.

Crying with Victims During Crisis:How CEO’s Emoting Impact Stakeholder’s Perception of Organization

Crises often occur in the form of unexpected events which evoke emotional experiences for those involved. Though crisis research has largely focused on verbal strategies in responding to a crisis, how they are delivered is arguably crucial too. While crisis literature shows that stakeholders experience emotional upheavals during crises, is it possible that organizations can be emotionally affected as well? If so, can organizational leaders, like the CEOs, then freely express emotions such as sobbing when communicating with stakeholders?

Curtain Call explores the challenges that today’s traditional artists face on a daily basis, from making a living to finding a successor to hand over the ropes to. In recent decades, the traditional arts scene in Singapore has been trailing behind the more well-received contemporary arts industry. But with a $23 million kitty and a five-year Traditional Arts Plan proposed by the National Arts Council, the languishing state of the industry looks set to change. In the face of these challenges, many have taken to modernising their art forms, to the dismay of traditional arts purists. From Peranakan raps to Heng Hwa string puppetry, Curtain Call takes a closer look at Singapore’s traditional arts.

Shophouse Spirit:Layered Living in Modern Singapore

Tastes of Yesteryear:A Campaign to Promote and Preserve Food Heritage among Youth in Singapore

Shophouses were, at one point, the dominant building form in Singapore. First brought to the island by immigrants from Southern China in the 19th century, they earned widespread popularity across races and social classes because of their adaptability, and the ease with which they could be built. Now, they are icons of Singapore’s history and heritage. But shophouses represent more than just Singapore’s past. Behind the shutters of each shophouse reside inhabitants who embrace an ethos very different from that of the rest of the population. This feature seeks to express the spirit of the shophouse lifestyle through the stories of the people living in and around them. It hopes to uncover perspectives on living that are timeless – yet especially timely for a society that is grappling with what it will take to grow successfully.

This project aims to raise awareness on the importance of Singapore’s food heritage and encourage its preservation among Singaporean youth aged 18 to 25. The multi-cultural nature of Singapore has given birth to a unique food culture that has come to characterize its food ideology. However, current literature reveals a lack of effort to preserve Singapore’s food heritage. This paper details the conceptualization and execution of the campaign as well as the key strategies and tactics employed. The effectiveness of the campaign was assessed via process and outcome evaluation, and future recommendations were provided.

The recent influx of immigrants in Singapore has caused tension and uncertainty, prompting us to question what it truly means to be Singaporean. Through Home Swee Home, the filmmakers explore our society’s rapidly changing demographics and learn about our common national identities. One key question is to define who qualifies as a Singaporean, by first defining the Singaporean identity.

This study examined how virtual contact through mediated communication using the social networking site (SNS) Sina Weibo can reduce how Chinese immigrants in Singapore perceive themselves as being discriminated by the locals. As part of the research, a five-week campaign sought to engage young Chinese immigrants aged 16 to 35 living in Singapore and using the transtheoretical model of behavioural change, the campaign sought to promote an open discussion of issues that would prepare them for future contact. The findings were discussed in relation to the specific recommendations that could be made at governmental and institutional levels.

Marrying Out: Singapore’s Mixed Future

Myanmar: In Our Midst

Singapore’s population is getting all mixed up and there is no stopping it. While the mixed marriage trend is not new, the uptick in the last decade has been significant. This rising trend throws up a spread of issues, most of which have no straightforward solutions. But one thing is clear: we must change the way we perceive race and national identity. As these marriages slowly blur out the lines on issues of race and nationality, Singaporeans have to reconsider what makes a Singaporean. Marrying Out: Singapore’s Mixed Future is a shared account of voices from mixed marriage couples on the ground to top-level academics and policymakers seeking to chronicle the current changing demographic landscape and chart the future of the place we all call home.

Myanmar: In Our Midst is a photojournalism project that seeks to shed light upon the Burmese population in Singapore through a series of profiles of Burmese in Singapore from diverse backgrounds – students, migrant workers, permanent residents and Burmese Singaporeans. Given the recent developments in Myanmar, this project is an attempt to answer the question of whether these Burmese will now return home, given that they have lived, worked and grown up here for over half a century.

Blaming the Victim:A Radio Documentary

Blaming the Victim is a 30-minute radio documentary which explores victim-blaming attitudes towards sexual assault victims. Victim-blaming is a phenomenon where blame is partially or fully attributed to a victim of an assault. The documentary examines why people have victim-blaming attitudes, how these attitudes are perpetuated and why victims often blame themselves for their own attacks. It also highlights some common misperceptions of sexual assault such as who its victims and perpetrators are.

Antecedents and Consequences of Child Emotional Abuse:A Retrospective Study among Undergraduates in Singapore

Child Emotional Abuse (CEA) refers to the significant impairment of a child’s social, emotional and intellectual development resulting from the adult’s persistent hostility, ignoring, blaming and discrimination of the child. An online survey was administered to 615 undergraduates in Singapore and they were asked to recall their childhood experiences of emotional abuse. Based on the results, the study looked at the theoretical implications and practical contributions to policymakers, campaign organisers and parents to address the problem of CEA in Singapore.

《从心了解,重新出发》They are Making a Difference, are They?

《就从我开始》Start with Me

The objective of this radio report is to investigate some controversies surrounding overseas voluntary work. The radio reports, available in both English and Mandarin with identical content, aim to get listeners thinking about whether engaging in overseas voluntary work is necessarily a good thing. It contains not only what volunteers and non-volunteers have to say, but also what they have to say about one another’s opinions.

Start With Me is a five-episode Chinese audio documentary. This program features five individuals dedicated to the cause of molding Singapore into an inclusive society for the disabled. Through personal experiences and motivating stories of the interviewees, the producer hopes to inspire listeners to do their part for better inclusion, understanding and acceptance for the disabled.

“Sisters”

“Sisters” is a story that revolves around a current sex worker and an ex-sex worker. It explores the intricacies of their interdependent relationship with each other. Based largely on real-life events – a huge part of the scriptwriter’s research and fieldwork – “Sisters” aims to let the audience have a glimpse of Orchard Tower’s sex work industry and the problems sex workers face through the eyes of these two sisters, albeit non-biological. Along with their interactions with the people around them, when crisis strikes this pair of women and forces them to face the very elements that have turned them both in and out of this industry—will they be able to turn this crisis around to their advantage?

Growing Up with Less

Growing Up with Less explores the hidden side of cosmopolitan richest-country-in-the-world Singapore where the government-built apartment complexes are littered with trash and used sanitary pads and your neighbour next door could be a drug addict. The documentary focuses on the plight of children from low-income families where parents struggle to make ends meet, leaving their children unsupervised, often hungry for food and affection and extremely vulnerable to bad influences. Through the observing eyes of the cameras, the many facets of their lives and the accompanying dramas that rolled over from the adults’ lives are exposed, showing just how vulnerable the children are and how much they need a guiding hand to bring them out of the poverty cycle.

Wanted: Bus Drivers

Taking the bus in Singapore is a daily ritual for many. Accustomed to a world-class transport system, we expect our rides to be smooth and swift, with minimum fuss and maximum comfort. But of late, Singapore’s public transport system has been bursting at the seams, with breakdowns and delays becoming commonplace. As a result, frontline transport workers like bus drivers have often become unwitting punching bags for irate passengers. This project takes up the perspective of bus drivers in Singapore, to explore the challenges that they face in their line of work. It attempts to find out how bus drivers are recruited and trained to drive on our roads, and the severity of the bus driver shortage.

This Chinese news feature focuses on the various adverse social impact of smartphones on Singapore society. This advancement of technology has not only revolutionized the mobile phone landscape, but also changed people’s interaction and relationship with such mobile gadgets. As we praise smartphones for the convenience it brings to our daily life, some experts have questioned its effectiveness. While smartphones help one to connect better with a certain group of people; it can also disconnect one from others.

In My Hands:Holding the Digital

This paper aims to be a philosophical treatise on the phenomenology of touch in electronic and digital media devices. While the paper does examine gaming on the iPad and other electronic devices, the purpose of the paper is not to delve into ludology or the cultural issues surrounding gaming and electronic or digital media. Rather, the paper explores the relationship between the lived-body and the electronic and digital “body”. This is through using Vivian Sobchack’s work in Carnal Thoughts as a springboard, paying special attention to how embodiment can be extended to digital spaces—understood as “imaginal” spaces—and electronic devices.

The Effects of 3D Presentation and Dependency Portrayals on Philanthropy

This study aims to find out if 3D presentation in a philanthropic context can change attitudes towards the disabled elderly and increase donations. Results from mediation analyses showed that cognitive attitudes towards the disabled elderly, social presence, and favour towards the advertisement were significant mediating factors for the effect of 3D presentation on certain variables. Implications with regards to the use of 3D presentation in attitudes towards philanthropy and charities were discussed.

Makan Mantra is a strategic communication campaign focusing on the reduction food wastage in Singapore. This is the first student-led campaign to partner 13 Food & Beverage (F&B) businesses to reduce food waste in Singapore. Targeted at young working adults aged 20 to 34, the objectives of the campaign were to raise awareness of food wastage and to enable consumers to reduce their own. It sought to achieve this by introducing and implementing eight methods, known as ‘mantras’, for consumers to adopt throughout their meal.

Project Bin&Go aims to promote fuss-free recycling and increase recycling efforts by guests and staff on Sentosa. The campaign was in line with Sentosa’s Green Plan as part of their corporate and social responsibility program. Staff and guests were engaged through various events that educated them on recycling as well as implementing long-term initiatives such as increasing the number of recycling outlets on the island.
