An CSR initiative by Sunway TES CAE to conduct HOT skills training to school teachers

Sunway TES CAE in collaboration with Pejabat Pendidikan Daerah Petaling Utama (PPDPU) is conducting workshops for 840 teachers from 28 schools, in the area of “Enagaging students to develop Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS)”. This initiative is in support of the Malaysian Education Blueprint aspirations to develop Thinking Skills in students. In 2016, 40% of UPSR and 50% of SPM questions will comprise of HOTS questions.
