Mandarin Teacher uses Frog to Make Education Relevant and Fun

"Why do we have to learn this?" This is a common question that teachers and parents sometimes hear from students. However SMK Puchong's Mandarin Teacher, Mrs. Guek, is all set to let students know that what they are learning is indeed relevant to their lives by linking what she teaches in the classroom to everyday life. 

Ms. Guek also acknowledges the benefits of gamification in education in increasing the fun in learning. She successfully encourages her students' participation in learning by allowing the use of game-thinking  to build their Mandarin vocabulary.

She does all this through the Frog VLE, and dramatically improve her students' understanding of the language, especially in essay writing. Listen to her story in her own words today!

We are inspired by your dedication to enhance your students' learning experience, Ms. Guek! We love hearing stories like this and we look forward to discovering more innovative teachers like Ms. Guek from schools all over Malaysia!

SMK Puchong uses Frog to Reduce Administration and Increase Student Engagement

One of the efforts to transform our education system as stated in Malaysia's Education Blueprint (2013-2025) is to "Focus teachers on their core function of teaching from 2013 by reducing administration burdens". Teachers are often bogged down by administrative tasks, which makes it challenging for them to fully concentrate on teaching itself. 

In overcoming this, Mr Phang from SMK Puchong is already one step ahead! With help from widgets like the Booking Calendar on the Frog VLE, the hassle of administrative tasks is minimised, so that teachers like Mr. Phang can spend more time with his students instead!

In addition to that, teachers are able to easily connect with their students by using the Forums widget. This helps in increasing more communication between teachers and students so that the necessary attention may be given to individual students! Watch this video to hear his story.
