Water is the most vital stuff we need as human being, considering how sick we will feel without enough water. Drinking water is the best way to cure us from any sickness and to keep us healthy under the heat of the sun. But, how can it cure sickness if the water we drink is not clean and hygiene anyway? Well, it has been a long problem and matter for scientists about how to provide safe drinking water all around the world and even in some of the tropical areas or in the rather hot place. But, it is still difficult to handle since they do not get enough support from the government. Anyway, can't we really solve the matter? We hope this project can lead people in the world to pay more attention for those who are in need of safe drinking water.

Team Collaboration

The team has divided each of their works well. Each member has obligation to do different tasks.

-For Nico, he is capable in English, so he wrote the narrative texts based on the information the team has got.

-For Olga, she has internet access in her house, so she can find the information about the topic and write the texts which Nico's given to her in the team's page.

-For Jefry, he has computer skills, but he doesn't have internet access in his house, so he taught Olga how to open the website, write the texts in the pages, and submit them.

-For Herdina, she is a very creative girl. She draws well and made banners or pictures for the pages.

These students are very busy, because they are working in school's organizations. Jefry is the leader of school's main organization, Olga is the vice leader, Herdina is the secretary and Nico is the vice leader in MPK (an organization where representatives of each class in the school are being gathered to give their opinion)

They have shared their difficulties. Nico and Jefry don't have internet access in their houses. Olga has internet access but her English skill is average. While Herdina has internet access but she is a busy person with a packed schedule of co-curricular activities and so on.

Luckily, they can solve the problems by dividing tasks and gather a while to do case building.

-Olga has internet access in house, but she is not very good at writing English composition.
