Assessment
History
The History assessment consists of both conventional and the non pen and paper assignments.
Learners are encouraged to think critically and creatively. Differentiated assessments are put in place for highly able students who have a strong passion for history. Authentic assessments involving performance tasks, portfolio, debates and role-play help students to become reflective learners, and better prepare them for the ‘A’ level exam at the end of 6 years.
Geography
The Geography assessments are designed by incorporating the principles of Multiple Intelligences and Understanding By Design which allow the tasks to be planned more holistically. Authentic assessments ranging from formal research papers, performance tasks to fieldwork projects are designed to encourage critical thinking and reflective reasoning and at the same time allow students to explore different learning styles and abilities, exercise and develop their strengths and talents.
Active Citizenry Education
To be effective, ACE adopts a practice-oriented approach so that each pupil has the capacity to put into practice democratic values, attitudes and behaviours in their daily life at home, school and the community. The atmosphere in the classroom is stimulating, interactive and thought-provoking.
Pupils are actively engaged with the political, social and moral issues of the world around them to develop skills of participation and responsible action. A wide variety of resources, technology, visuals and so on are available as a means to tap on the learning styles of the pupils.
Economics
The instructional programme places high priority on thinking, writing and communication skills. Students learn to analyse, interpret and evaluate case-studies in an authentic setting. The programme also uses a combination of teaching and learning approaches such as interactive seminar discussions, game based learning, student presentations and independent research.
Economics students are also given opportunities to participate in enrichment programmes such as university seminars, essay competitions and symposiums organised by external agencies such as NTU and SMU.
