Reshaping Teaching and Learning at Hwa Chong. We are the future.
(pardon my horrible incoherent language. )
While the rest of wonderful you(s) are phooling around, having semi CT dinners with crashers coming too, to replace the rest of us, i'm here to blog about our future. nope. wait read the question again. it says we ARE the future. alright. i shall blog about us as the future.

Reshaping teaching. at hc. Teaching at hwachong is something really hard to define. Sometimes, we get really coherent ones. Just like some lectures where it's fun and yet we learn many things out of them; in some tutorials, our doubts are cleared each time. However, we also do have instances where information were shot to the wall at lightning speed and unfortunately reflect at an angle so accurate that it went in from one of our ears and went out from the another, almost instantaneously. So how can we improve this so that learning in Hwachong will be more effective? Seriously, after much thoughts, I still do not have an answer.

Personally, excluding the subject math, I think that peer tutoring works better for me. I think i work better when i'm allowed to think in my own pace. Having made myself to think as fast as how others can is a pretty demanding task for me. However, for me to sit down to think and process requires an environment with least amount of destruction. Although moving to different classrooms are meant for the teachers to stay in a particular classrooms each, but I do not think that it has been effectively implemented. This has caused the noticeboards in the classrooms to be unused and, at the same time, students to not have a proper classroom. ( i want a classroom! although there's a csc room. but huangcheng is always using it. >< ).

if a teacher were to stay in the classroom, the noticeboard can be fully utilised to post summaries of topics and important learning points so that we can learn, or revise, in a more effective way. if each class has a classroom, students get to have a more condusive environment instead of one where we get easily distracted by people around us playing frisbee, playing guitars, screamming and shouting and random crashers occuping our already extremely limited studying area. (and on a side note: how are we expected to study with tables that have spaces in between each horrizontal planks. ) we as the future, can try to earn money/ raise funds to build more classrooms or replace the benches. Or you can raise the quality of teaching by studying hard now and teach in hwachong in the future. Haha! What a horrible ending. What say you then?
