ICT & MRL DEPARTMENT

1) Self-directed Learning (SDL) through the Use of ICT Physical Fitness In line with MOE’s Masterplan 4 (MP4), the school has created varied opportunities for our students to exhibit SDL and CoL competencies through the use of ICT in their learning. Students who are self-directed learners achieve greater learner success by taking ownership of their learning and extending it beyond what is taught in school.

Teaching and Learning Various platforms have been introduced to students to encourage them to take responsibility for their own learning. One platform that is used comprehensively by our teachers is the Asknlearn Portal (http://lms.asknlearn.com/taonan_sch) which provides a wide array of online resources that serve to reinforce or stretch students’ learning.

Student All-Round Similarly, BrainPOP (http://www.brainpop.com), an animated educational website for Development students, also offers a rich source of age-appropriate learning content for English, Mathematics and Science. Subscription to this website for our students has been covered.

Joyreader is an online library of CL and bilingual e-books which are suitable for children aged 3-12.

Dudu contains hundreds School Distinction Award of beautifully illustrated eBooks with various difficulty levels.

Dudu adopts an adaptive learning approach to provide personalized and differentiated learning for each student. It analyses the students’ reading proficiency level and recommends eBooks that are suited for their reading level. Therefore, through such an e- Aesthetics Learning activity, students are able to learn at their own pace and students have more control over their learning process and can better customize their learning.

As students’ reading proficiency improves, they will be recommended more eBooks of higher difficulty levels. This will allow students to constantly be presented with eBooks Sports that are suitable for their reading ability, so that they will be able to gradually improve their command of CL. Ultimately this will motivate students to want to master CL.

Students can bring SDL to a higher level when they set their own learning goals, work towards them and reflect on them.

We hope that you can partner us to encourage your child/ ward in continuing this SDL journey in the home setting as well.
