It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

General Paper Science and Technology Crash Course

Not only has technology changed humanity profoundly in the past two decades, the pace of change has also been accelerating. Unquestionably, the world is increasingly shaped by technology in every conceivable way – politics, economy, media etc. In this crash course, we explored science and technology in the context of general paper. You will learn the fundamentals of science and tech and some powerful content.

General Paper Environment Crash Course

There has never been a more pressing issue than the environmental crisis that we are facing right now. Almost every year in the past decade has recorded higher temperatures than the years before. We are living in the sixth mass extinction in earth’s history. Close to 200 species of animals went extinct between 2001 and 2014, largely because of wildlife trade, destruction of natural habitat and pollution. Our species has altered the face of the planet so much that scientists have termed this era The Anthropocene.

Mr Evan Han

With over ten years of experience as an MOE-trained teacher specialised in the Humanities, namely History and Social Studies, Mr Han has taught in multiple schools that have spanned from the east to the west of Singapore. With a Postgraduate Diploma in Education (PGDE), he was also a recipient of the MOE Service Excellence Award for rendering quality service to students and parents. He believes in making the classroom a place for education and fun to make learning more engaging for his students. This is further amplified in Mr Han’s ability to develop strong positive teacher-student relationship with his students, who find his lessons interesting and enriching.

Having studied in the UK and USA for five years, Mr Han graduated from the London School of Economics (LSE) with a Honours in International Relations and a Masters in Business Management. He also did his summer exchange programme in Harvard University to do a minor in Economics. His international experience has given him the unique perspective of providing students with advice on how to apply for higher education in the US and UK and what life is like studying overseas. This also serves as an inspiration to his students, who aspire to pursue an education in world renown international universities.

In addition to his international education experiences, Mr Han is also active on social media, especially on YouTube. During the pandemic, he self-taught himself video editing skills and created various YouTube videos to facilitate teaching and learning remotely during the Home-Based Learning (HBL) period. Videos were made to teach History content on World War II and on the Role of the Government in Singapore for Social Studies. The videos were so well-received that he was invited to the National Institute of Education (NIE) to train current and future teachers on how to create videos for teaching and learning inside and outside of the classroom.

You can also feel inspired in the learning of the Humanities by joining one of Mr Han’s classes.

Mr KP Chuah

An NIE-trained English and GP teacher, KP has taught General Paper and English for more than a decade. A decorated educator with a Masters of Education from NIE and a CELTA Teaching Certificate by Cambridge, KP is deeply passionate about helping students unlock and reach their greatest potential.

KP's pedagogy involves breaking things down into simple and easy-to-remember bits of information, so that students can easily grasp complex subjects like GP and English. Students have experienced massive improvement in exams by applying the skills learned. He is a big believer in blended learning (Bergmann 2012) and its potential to optimize the time spent in class — rather than just assimilating information, class time should be spent on higher-order thinking activities and receiving feedback from tutors. He began experimenting with blended learning even before COVID-19 hit and before Zoom was a thing.

Dedicated to helping as many students as he can, KP is often recognised by students for running his various GP and English workshops or webinars on YouTube which are free for all students to attend. His online crash courses have thousands of viewers from all over the world. One of his missions in life is to see students succeed in not just GP, but also in all the other aspects of their lives. After all, English and GP are all about encouraging students to exercise their critical thinking skills so that they can make sound decisions in life.
