In a bid to capitalise on the advantages of Home-based Learning , including cultivating more independent and self-directed learners, schools will allocate several days a month for online instruction regardless of whether or not the pandemic is present in our midst.
In his video address which was uploaded on Facebook yesterday , Minister Ong noted that while everyone including teachers, students, and parents, underwent “an unexpected crash course” in remote-learning, he asked to keep the momentum going and to start it off, suggested that HBL could be held every fortnight.
“Overnight, all teachers shifted to delivering online lessons… Parents helped to set up spaces at home where their kids could focus on learning. Out of this crisis, and by virtue of necessity, we gained something quite extraordinary – mass acceptance of online learning,” Minister Ong said. Students under The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund were given cash to buy food that they were missing out had they been in school, but many of the students on the programme did not have bank accounts to facilitate banking in of the monies.
