Catchy Learning Cottage: Canberra Primary School And Bowen Secondary School

Keeping Kids Creative

Dear Readers,

We have all heard the buzzwords of the knowledge-based economy - creative, innovative, resourceful.We are told that our students will need these abilities, not just facts and figures, to thrive in the workplace of the future. And we,their teachers, need to equip them through creative teaching. Hence, here I try to unravel the nuts and bolts behind these ideas, to find out what creative teaching is all about and how it can be implemented in the classroom.

Join Me and I will appreciate it very much if you sign in my guestbook and leave your comments.

Canberra Primary School And Bowen Secondary School

The visit to the primary and secondary schools really opened my eyes on the learning of literature in a fun and informational ways. The effort done by the administrators and teachers themselves proved that learning can be done in such interesting and joyful environment and that is what makes the difference between the Singaporean classrooms and Malaysian classrooms. The importance of drama and art are also put at the highest level in most of the selected schools and I have managed to capture a lot of snapshots as evidence so that I will be able to make use of them in my school.
