Singapore's 21st-Century Teaching Strategies: Education Everywhere Series

This video shows how technology important in learning especially for the Singaporean Educational System, but then only those who can afford to send their children in this kind of school. It mentioned also in this vedio that " If you are not savy with tech, you lose the kids" and I beg to disagree with this. We can make learning fun without technology by incorporating different learning activities like games. Technology is there to supplement not to replace teachers by lights and special effects. Yet in this digital era, we can say technology is very important but we should not let our learner to be occupied by this said technology. LEARNING can be boost by technology but it cannot make you smart, we can be smart by the used of books and many more . Because there are some people who are good in exam but in real life application they don't understand even a single thing.

I honestly I appreciate the Singaporean Educational System that they provide everything for their learners but here in Philippines we not only need to know technology but we need to have skills and how to apply it in real life scenario.
Because I believe technology is just tool for assisting learning not to used for creation of engaged learning. As we can see in the video the learners answer will be tweeted to the teacher were in fact the teacher is just only in front of them. And not all schools can provide this kind of educational system especiall if your school is located in far flung areas with no internet connection.

I know how important technology right now but we need to know what would be the advantages and disadvantages when we used it.

In short, this video showcase how ICT in Education in 21st Century.

very inspiring concepts.

How about poor families and their children? Can you do a video coverage on those schools and their classes where most of the poor students go? Unless there is none.

I want this as my school system

If the students are allowed to ''use a myriad of sources'' in the final exam than it is fine, but we know they are not allowed to. The teacher still rightfully has the monopoly of knowledge.

These model classrooms are all the same... The very best students who put forth their very best effort. They WANT to learn. Now let's see how well this system works with a bunch of do-less kids who only ever want to know when they can get their phones back out--who never study or do homework and have serious attendance issues. I want to see the miracle model school that turns around THOSE kids. Anyone can teach the 'good' students.

countries which are under developing what they do to improve their education system

This is really great to see. Currently looking at the best practices for reaching the vast number of uneducated kids at the grassroots in my country and this has given me a lot of ideas in terms of group learning and the facilitating role of the teachers. This was great to watch.

School seems way more fun than when I went to High school(1970-74)

Oh my god vietnam's education go after singapore's more than 10 years 🥲. I always admire your education system . So creative so modern

Are schools in Singapore not as diverse as the country? The teachers seem to be of different ethnicities and backgrounds...but not os much thr kids. Is it just where this school is specifically located? I have been to Singapore...so this surprised me.

good

I'm not sure Singapore's methods will work in the United States, because we don't have their students.

Congratulations, a hug from the first Santiago of America, Dominican Republic.

Singapore schools are only good for producing workers.

Be thankful, Singapore children. Because you've got the best education.😊 As for me ?? At school I don't have the facilities and the good education system in Indonesia.😳

The psychological problems will emerge later.

Wow

Scan the globe for best practices. When you wait for one expert to tell you how to do it, more often than not you cannot put their vision into practice and don't always agree or see that it fits with your own circumstances. Teachers don't take enough initiative to find solutions to their problems and thus find themselves boring their kids to death.

It's not always about 'making it fun' it's about engaging or even challenging the kids. You don't necessarily need to do it through technology either. Asking the right question can often be enough to open them up.

I permission for download this video to repost. Thank you

Singapore is very similar to hk

As of 2020 my trinidad, wi govt, removed a school laptop where freely handed to students - and WON'T renew in spite of #covid Went so far as to ask corporations to contribute tablets.

from wht i see through this video is they were more into using ICT as the medium of teching in classroom.
But what are the 21st century skills applied in the teacher's teaching of the student?

THANKS FOR YOUR INFORMATIONS ABOUR IT TECHNOLOGIES IN SCHOOL. I TRY TO USE THIS METHODS FOR MY LESSONS. I BELIEVE THAT I CAN INFLUENCE TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF MY LESSONS

Tech is useless in the classroom beyond primary school and research. Everything else is a gimmick and has no basis in cognitive developmental psychology or learning.

I have some questions who can helps me?

Nice teaching sirji

Woah, classy, pure class education in Singapore.

that is the real practice of what we are talking about holistic development of students. providing such a conducive environment and guiding the students to create knowledge is the real practice of educational change. Singapore kids are lucky enough.

When I was in Singapore it was impressive to notice how people here were remarkably focused, caring and seemed to have a collective instinct toward technology-infused

This would serve as a good benchmark for teachers around the globe to be inspired by the system of education in singapore..

Academic stress is being increased and ultimately suicide rate as well.. this is not education

Very nice

Great idea both in the vlog and article...I used it to incorporate it in practice. Thank you.

Most our teachers even in an University level will go mad...here in India...India is still lacking behind...

I honestly appreciate the Singapore government for providing all of us education at a lower cost, but in all honesty, our education system is far from being the best. The reason for those stellar results in the OECD rankings is the constant grinding of information from schools, tuition and hours of studying. I cannot assume that nothing is being learnt from the grinding, but it certainly distracts students from other pursuits and finding out what is their broader meaning in life.

It’s great.

When I was in high School I barely past General Chemistry. When internet and YouTube became available , I learned more on my own watching videos and googling then I did in a classroom. Better scores does mean better learning.

Technology causes stress by speeding up the delivery of information and by increasing the amount of info. presented at one time.

I feel, the educational system must be judged on the basis of what kind of human beings( benovalant, creative & hardworking folks) they eventually create. As a country, it seems Japan, Denmark, other Scandinavian countries, Canada & newzealand have achieved this.

Snooze....


Just when was the last time anyone has ever heard of a top-shelf entrepreneur, programmer, AI researcher, artist, athlete, thought leader, writer of any sort from Singapore? Right, I rest my case.


This kind of education system churns out highly qualified corporate employees. And that's what it does.


I still believe the most precious quality is one's desire and willing to learn, for one's entire life. After all, if you still rely on schools to "teach" you, then you are already behind. The resourceful ones know that so much knowledge can be obtained from YouTube and all the outline education resources. Then make sure you market yourself like freaking crazy. That's the 21st Century way...


Singapore? Please....

Facilitaion means teaching only yarrr.....

Two points which are really useful frm this vdeo
1.)Utilising social media for learning instead of getting distracted through it
2) adapting new methods of teaching according to the ongoing tech n services
