21 Ms Lim Suat Jien Executive Vice President, Channel 5 and Okto, MediaCorp 4 General Information on the National Integration Council The National Integration Council (NIC) was set up in April 2009 to foster social integration across society. Chaired by Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for Community, Youth and Sport, the Council comprises of leaders from the people and private sectors, and the government. 2 Four National Integration Working Groups have been set up to look more closely at the areas of Community, Schools, Workplaces and the Media. They are chaired by the Permanent Secretaries of the Ministry most relevant to these areas. The Working Groups also include prominent non-government leaders. They will propose and implement integration programmes under the NIC’s strategic direction. 3 The NIC and its Working Groups have each met twice in the last four months to take stock of the current state of integration, discuss integration strategies, and propose new initiatives for the year ahead. Desired Outcomes 4 The NIC aims to achieve the following desired outcomes: a. A landscape of vibrant 3P social integration initiatives that comprehensively meet integration needs; b. A sustainable, active network for effective social integration efforts across Singapore; and c. Internalisation of core Singaporean values among Singaporeans and others living, working and playing in Singapore. Principles of Social Integration 5 The following principles guide the NIC’s efforts in promoting integration: a. Singapore is for Singaporeans : Singaporeans must feel secure in the knowledge that the government will look after their long term interests. Newcomers should feel encouraged to take up Singaporean citizenship. b. Singapore is a global nexus of talent and ideas : Singapore has limited natural resources and must remain a country open to global talent, ideas, and capital. c. Integration is a two-way effort : Social integration does not come about naturally. Singaporeans must recognise the contribution of all members of society, including non-citizens, and actively reach out to each other. d. A united Singapore people committed to meritocracy and multi-racialism: Singaporeans must be one united people, committed to a shared belief in the core tenets of meritocracy and multiracialism, and sharing a common stake in the future of Singapore. 5 Annex B GENERAL INFORMATION ON COMMUNITY INTEGRATION FUND Objectives The CIF aims to provide funding to encourage ground-up social integration efforts from the people, private and public sectors. In general, projects which satisfy any of the three objectives will be considered: a. Provide information and resources to new immigrants and foreigners on integrating into Singapore; b. Encourage greater interaction between new immigrants, foreigners and locals; and c. Reinforce positive mindsets

    Journal of Academic Perspectives Singapore Teachers’ Perceptions of Integrating Social Values and Life Skills into Primary School Science Lessons Tan Kok-Siang, Senior Lecturer Nanyang Technological University, Singapore ABSTRACT Affective learning involves learners’ emotions and belief systems. How the teacher facilitates affective learning has important implications for how enduring student learning experiences are and how parents view teacher effectiveness in school. The literature has reported that teaching and learning within the affective domain often face issues related to effectiveness, validity and teachers’ readiness-to-teach. Despite such obstacles, learning in the affective and cognitive domains remains important. Teachers often have to choose between spending time preparing students for examinations and making efforts to influence students affectively in class. Usually, the former prevails. It would be helpful if teachers had an “acceptable pedagogy” to practise effectively in both domains of learning. This paper shares the perceptions of sixty experienced Singapore Primary Science teachers who were introduced to the use of analogy, an established school science pedagogy, to raise awareness among students in positive social values and life skills during science lessons. Teachers who used this pedagogy to integrate learning in both the cognitive and affective domains in earlier work reported observing positive changes in student behaviour. The strategy is to capitalise on students’ learning energy during a science lesson so as to provide a seamless transition towards discussing values and life skills in class. After completing a course on integrating science and affective learning, teachers’ perceptions of the use of this pedagogy were collected and analysed. The teachers recognised the use of analogies as effective “teachable moments” supporting student learning in both the cognitive and affective domains.

  • End-Of-Life Care Here Needs Improving
    Asiaone - S'pore firm offers Page 1 of 2 Health @ AsiaOne End-of-life care here needs improving S'pore ranks 18th out of 40 countries in the first study on the quality of death. -myp Thu, Jul 15, 2010 my paper By Gwendolyn Ng MORE needs to be done to improve end-of-life care in Singapore - which ranked 18th out of 40 countries in the first study on the quality of death. More professionals trained in palliative care, more community services and more public awareness of the need for such care, among other things, are necessary for Singapore, said the experts behind the Quality of Death Index. The nation did, however, fare well in certain areas, such as the national pension-scheme coverage and accreditation for end-of-life care providers. These factors helped it rank second among the eight Asian regions included in the study, behind Taiwan, which came in 14th overall. Topping the list was Britain, followed by Australia and New Zealand. They fared well because each has a national strategy that recognises end-of-life care in health-care and medical- education policies. The results of the study commissioned by Singapore's Lien Foundation and conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) were unveiled at a press conference yesterday. The foundation commissioned the study to put end-of-life issues on the global radar and catch the attention of the public and key decision makers, said its chief executive officer, Mr Lee Poh Wah. He said: "We live in a death-denying society where too many people are dying with unnecessary pain, with too much fear and unfinished business." The study evaluated the countries based on 24 indicators in four categories: basic healthcare environment, and the availability, cost and quality of end-of-life care.
