KUALA LUMPUR: Educators want the government to bolster home learning efforts to ensure that the academic performance of students does not deteriorate.
They singled out factors such as lack of IT skills of teachers and falling attendance rates of students as cause for concern.
The school session for the year began yesterday, but apart from students sitting for public examinations, teaching and learning will be conducted online.

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 20: Parents of schoolgoing children are probably relieved with the government’s announcement that only students sitting for major examinations need to return to school when the 2021 school session begins today.
All primary pupils and students from Form 1 to Form 5, meanwhile, will follow home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) according to the suitability of the teachers and students.
In a statement issued on Jan 16, the Ministry of Education (MOE) said the decision was made following discussions with the Ministry of Health and the National Security Council in view of the recent COVID-19 case trend nationwide. Malaysia has been recording four-figure new COVID-19 cases every day in recent weeks and its total confirmed cases now stood at 165,371.

KUALA
LUMPUR: Good teacher-parent communication is vital in creating an effective home-based teaching and learning (PdPR ) ecosystem for students, said Education and Professional Continuing expert Prof Dr Ismi Arif Ismail.
He said such interaction would also make the learning process more enjoyable for students.
“Regular communication between teachers and parents is vital for PdPR as it has become the teaching and learning method in this new normal environment,” he told Bernama.
Ismi Arif said apart from sharing what have been taught and homework, teachers should always encourage parents to give their support to ensure effective PdPR can be achieved.
