<strong>CKY</strong> Hackathon Participants' reflection<br />
Through this Hackathon, we were able to gain more knowledge<br />
about prototyping, branding, marketing and presentations. The<br />
workshops inspired us to consider more features we may add<br />
to our user interface. If we had more time or planned to<br />
continue working on our product, the secret to winning is<br />
teamwork and playing to our strengths, like pieces of a puzzle<br />
joined together.<br />
Team 1: Health Ninja (Freeman Lo, Cedric Hung,<br />
Michael Yung, Elliot Sun)<br />
One thing we can say is that the product is not the heart of the<br />
project, the people are. We learned the importance of considering<br />
the target audience when developing products and their needs. Time<br />
management is also very important. We were lagging behind at first<br />
since we did not plan out a schedule. But later, we realised that this<br />
was a serious <strong>issue</strong> and decided to plan out a timetable, following it<br />
strictly.<br />
Team 6: Cot Care (Terry Wong, Thomas Wong, Kyle Lee,<br />
Mike Lau)<br />
This competition was something new for<br />
me. Although some of us are already<br />
versed in technical skills taught, we got to<br />
make a new friend which I think is a much<br />
better payoff than anything we could have<br />
received. The Hackathon is a great<br />
competition experience for me. Not only did<br />
we learn to work as a team, but also<br />
practised our presentation skills<br />
We learned a lot about STEM perspectives and applications<br />
regarding Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths. We<br />
have the knowledge of how to apply these concepts in our<br />
daily lives and solve problems. We felt thrilled during the event<br />
as we got to work with our friends and can make a prototype of<br />
our own. When we knew that we won an award, we were<br />
excited because it meant that our idea was approved and<br />
validated. We look forward to participating in next year's<br />
competition again and hope we can get a better result next<br />
time and be the champions.<br />

Team 8: Fuzzball (Nathan Kwok, Marcus<br />
Lam, Jay Law, Isaac Ngan)<br />
