Digital Literacy & AI Awareness Module - Planning Phase by Tan Wei Feng (25005493)

Date: 1 April 2026

Phase: Preparation (Week 3)

Author: Tan Wei Feng, Project Secretary, Event Planning and Management Manager


The "Why" Behind Our Mission...Why We Choose This Theme?

As a first-year Computer Science student at University Malaya, we have always seen Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a series of logical mathematical tools. However, as we entered the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR), I realized there is a growing digital divide. While we are still discussing algorithms in our lectures at FCSIT, many in our community, especially those secondary school students and teens still view AI as "magic" or, worse, a threat to their future. As they are still in a mindset where AI will going to replace them in the future.

This realization sparked the creation of our project, the Digital Literacy & AI Awareness Module, targeting to deliver AI and technology related knowledge to teens and students in school.


My Role and the Team's Vision

In this project, I serve as the Secretary and the Event Planning and Management Manager. My preparation phase has been an intensive journey of coordination. From drafting our formal proposal to managing communication between our Director, Lim Jie Shin, and our entire team of members. I’ve learned that "Social Engagement" is as much about organized teamwork as it is about the community itself.


Our planned program seems to be an one-day visit, but following the GIG1005 Social Engagement project criteria, as the module designer, we are actually designing the modules to be:

 - Impactful: by ensuring all our participants are able to gain actual practical skills that they can apply in their daily lives

 - Sustainable: by creating modules that they can actually share the knowledge with others. 

 - Empowering: by teaching them to manage these tools themselves so they don't depend on us forever.

 - Transformation Initiatives: by bringing new meaningful, and useful insights for the students.

 - Longitudinal: if the planned session goes well, we will expand the size of the program to accommodate more students with various more interesting activities in the future slot based on school availability.

 - Knowledge Transfer: by sharing AI related knowledge like prompting skills to young teens.


To deliver a better understanding on what is our program module:

 1. Art of Prompting AI: Prompt Engineer Workshop : a workshop to educate teens to prompt AI as a tool and get the best outcome they need. Use AI as tool instead of replacing our job and task and explain how AI logic sequence work. Its not magic, its logic

 2. Deepfake Era: Can You Trust Your Eyes? : a workshop session to teach teens to identify fake videos and fake pictures generated by AI. This is one of the way to fight against online scam and misinformation as well.

 3. Future Innovator Workshop: Practical Output with AI : a workshop session to teach students useful collaboration AI tools to use in daily life

Each module comes with an hands on session to let our participants to try the things out practically instead of just listening to workshops. We believe applications in real life make knowledge last longer in human brain. The hands on part are:

 1. 'Prompt Master' challenge

 2. Deepfake Detective

 3. AI-Genius Project


Personal Reflections

This is not the first project or event that I involved as organiser or committee, but I believe this one will be one of the most meaningful program I have ever organised. I feel a sense of excitement now.

We are moving beyond being just students, we are actually becoming the one delivering knowledge in our own major of studies, executing knowledge transfer. Our goal is to prepare our own generation to get ready for the digital world, collabing with AI and more upcoming tools in the future.

Digital Literacy & AI Awareness Module - Ending Phase by Tan Wei Feng (25005493)

Date: 24 May 2026 Phase: Ending Phase (Post-Event Reflection & Documentation) Author: Tan Wei Feng, Project Secretary, Event Planning and Management Manager Reflecting on the Full Journey What started as a tentative conversation in FCSIT back in early April has officially come to a close. Over the past few weeks, our team has transitioned away from the high-energy adrenaline of the school hall at SMJK Catholic into the quiet, meticulous space of analysis, reporting, and documentation. Moving from the Planning Phase, through the Venue Confirmation hurdles, into the dynamic Execution Day, and now arriving at the Ending Phase has given me a profound appreciation for what "Social Engagement" truly means. It is not just about showing up for a single day of impact; it is about ensuring that the impact is captured, measurable, and sustainable. The Post-Event Reality: Reporting and Documentation   As the Project Secretary, the completion of the physical workshop marked the beg...

Digital Literacy & AI Awareness Module - Execution Phase by Tan Wei Feng (25005493)

Date: 8 May 2026  Phase: Execution (Week 8) Author: Tan Wei Feng, Project Secretary, Event Planning and Management Manager From Vision to Action: The Big Day The journey that began with drafting proposals and navigating administrative hurdles finally culminated in our project execution at SMJK Catholic . On 8 May 2026, we successfully delivered the Digital Literacy & AI Awareness Module to 298 Form 2 students in the school's Main Hall . Seeing the hall filled with nearly 200 curious young minds transformed our months of planning into a vibrant reality . Delivering the Modules   Our execution focused on the core mission of bridging the digital divide by moving away from seeing AI as "magic" and instead treating it as a logical, mathematical tool . We conducted the workshops as planned: The Art of Prompting: Participants engaged in the 'Prompt Master' challenge, learning to use AI like Gemini and ChatGPT as "co-pilots" for productivity rather th...
