NSTnation Challenge for teachers to finish SPM, STPM syllabus as MCO extended
Teachers are daunted by the prospect of completing the syllabus for their students who will sit for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia and Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia .
Rosleen Salleh, who teaches the Malaysian University English Test to Lower and Upper Six students at SMK Tinggi, Kluang, said: “With the compressed time slot, it is not going to be easy for teachers to follow up on what students are doing during the lockdown and that doesn't bode well for their exam scores.”
She said teachers have set up a Telegram group for them to interact with their students, but they cannot be sure whether the students have completed their tasks on their own. “Teachers still need to plan their teaching, set learning objectives and outcomes and identify ways to assess effectively,” said Nor Fadzleen who teaches Fifth Formers.
“There is plenty of revision and catching up that needs to be done,” he said, adding the shorter time to finish the syllabus will add pressure on teachers and students. Another teacher who teaches Sixth Formers said in order to catch up with the syllabus, extra classes and reducing subsequent semester breaks are needed.
