The presentation boards of the winning entries and finalists may be viewed online at www.ypdesignchallenge.tao-pilipinas.org. Jury comments for each of the selected entries will also be posted online soon. TAO-Pilipinas shall organize the awarding ceremonies on December 2008 and exhibition of winning and notable designs by January 2009.
We also would like to inform you that the registration for the YP Design Challenge categories Portable Playground and Trash Transformation is still open. Registration deadline is on November 20 and the submission period is from November 26 to November 28, 2008. We hope that this new schedule would allow more of your students to join the design competition.
Again, we encourage your faculty to consider integrating the competition as a student design plate of your class for the semester. You may choose to register only your pre-selected top designs of the class (especially for professors using the design assignment as an internal class competition).
Thank you for allowing your students to incorporate the competition into their studies and supporting their efforts. We hope for your continued involvement with the project.
Most sincerely,
Ge
