Training Specialists in Malaysia should assume the Malaysians are a silly lot of people that will consider every part they are saying.
Listed here are
extracts from our New Straits Instances dated January 24, 2024 and my feedback.
Training consultants mentioned it’s unfair to thoroughly choose the
requirements of the nation’s training system primarily based on decrease scores within the
Programme for Worldwide Scholar Evaluation (Pisa).
“The success of our training system just isn’t decided
simply by Pisa,” mentioned Nationwide Council of Professors (MPN) president
Emeritus Professor Datuk Dr Raduan Che Rose.
My remark:
We have now executed
away with the first 6 examination and Type 3 (Yr 9) and hundreds of scholars
go away faculty as illiterates after their Type 5 (Yr 11) examination. Our
Professor Raduan Che Rose has the audacity to say our training system just isn’t
decided simply by PISA.
I assumed, by evaluating
outcomes internationally, coverage makers and educators in Malaysia can be taught from
different nations’ insurance policies and practices.
“We have now to take a look at developments in different areas, akin to
topics other than Science, Arithmetic and English, pupil improvement,
curricular actions and academic aspirations, which the rating doesn’t
cowl,” he mentioned, referring to Pisa’s analysis of solely Science,
Arithmetic and English.
My remark:
Oops! They
forgot non secular research and Arabic. These folks should assume all Malaysians are
silly.
“So we must be extra centered in our methods —
significantly in how we are able to bounce again the training loss, which occurred throughout
the pandemic.”
My remark:
Once more, these
persons are attempting to con the Malaysian residents into believing that the
pandemic didn’t have an effect on the neighbouring nations. How do they clarify the
dismal failures within the PISA exams in 2015 and 2012?
Dr Anuar Ahmad from the Centre of Neighborhood Training and
Wellbeing at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia echoed Raduan’s concern.
When requested in regards to the root explanation for the decline in training,
Anuar recognized long-standing and unresolved points throughout the training
system.
My remark:
I made
a number of feedback on Anuar Ahmad’s Fb web page and he didn’t reply my
questions. I found at the moment that I can’t entry his account on Fb.
As a substitute of answering my questions he blocks me on Fb as a result of I ask
questions that he nor College Kebangsaan Malaysia can reply. For these ,
please take a look at my publish on Anuar and PISA.
In the meantime, Professor Tan Sri Dr T. Marimuthu agreed on
reviewing the capability for lecturers within the workforce.
Nevertheless, Marimuthu mentioned the foundation explanation for the deterioration
within the nation’s training high quality should be investigated from each angle.
My remark:
I researched
why many children can learn in Malay and Hanyu Pinyin however not in English and
revealed a ebook detailing the causes along with corroborative proof. I
despatched copies to Dr. Mahathir and his daughter Marina Mahathir in 2018. I didn’t
even get a reply. Chances are you’ll get a replica of Shut Down Youngsters and query me or
recommend some other causes why children shut down/disengage from studying to learn in
English.
In January
2023, I learn a newspaper article which said that our Training Minister Puan
Fadhlina Sidek desires to scale back children requiring intervention. I wrote an electronic mail and
Tweeted her a number of instances to no avail. LINK
“Is
this in regards to the high quality of studying or what’s being discovered? Or is it about
educating, or how our college students are taught? Or is it each?
My Remark:
After all it
is in regards to the high quality of educating. I’ve additionally talked about about my ebook, Educate Your Little one to Learn, to Anuar
Ahmad, Dr. Maszlee Malik, Puan Fadhlina Sidek and lots of others. This ebook
contains all of the instruments accessible to get a child to learn. There was no
curiosity proven by Malaysians whereas it’s in style abroad. How will we cut back
illiteracy with such lackadaisical attitudes from our educators?
For these new to my weblog, please learn my publish on my speculation on why Singapore is #1 abandoning Malaysia at quantity 51. LINK, LINK and LINK

NAME AND CONSTITUENCY OF MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT
Don Wee, Chua Chu Kang GRC
QUESTION
To ask the Minister for Training in every of the final three years,
what number of kids have been identified with dyslexia on the pre-school,
major and secondary ranges respectively.
RESPONSE
1. In
conserving with worldwide apply, we don’t diagnose for dyslexia at
pre-school. As a substitute, in the course of the pre-school years, we deal with
supporting pre-schoolers’ rising studying wants fairly than testing
them for studying disabilities.
2. At
Main One, all college students are screened in order that these with weak language
and literacy expertise obtain early intervention via the Studying
Help Programme (LSP). Dyslexia usually exhibits up as difficulties in
studying regardless of sufficient language publicity and good studying instruction.
Therefore these whose literacy difficulties persist regardless of LSP obtain
additional screening for dyslexia identification.
3. Based mostly
on 2016 to 2019 knowledge, about 3.5% of Main 3 college students had been reported as
having dyslexia. In Secondary 1, about an extra 1% of the cohort
had been reported with dyslexia. The proportion of scholars with dyslexia in
Singapore is throughout the worldwide prevalence of between 3% and 10%.
4. As
dyslexia ranges from gentle to extreme, the kind of help supplied
relies on the coed’s degree of want. We have now a spread of school-based
programmes and help, in addition to MOE-subsidised remediation by the
Dyslexia Affiliation of Singapore (DAS).
