  • Journal of Academic Perspectives
    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.
