Now, those without digital gadgets or an Internet connection could keep up with their formal schooling.
Although the details of how this would be done were not revealed, stakeholders believe it will involve training and team work.National Union of the Teaching Profession secretary-general Harry Tan said teachers who are doubling as television presenters must be given training and guidance by professionals from the broadcasting industry to improve the quality of their shows.
Agreeing with Tan, Sabah Teachers Union president Said Saidi said teachers must be given formal training before they can be expected to present the lessons on television. “These teachers developed good presentation skills, with some having their own YouTube channels that captured the interest of students and the public but formal training should still be given, ” he said.
Noting that DidikTV has only just been launched, Said said that it is too soon to determine its effectiveness as a teaching tool for home-based teaching and learning . “Of course, the teachers must be involved in the scripting of the lesson before it’s presented, ” he said. “Get more teachers to produce content. Cover all subjects. Expand the programming and improve the presentation, ” he suggested.
