KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 29: The home-based teaching and learning (PdPR) method should focus on core subjects to reduce stress faced by students and teachers.
Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Centre of Education and Community Wellness lecturer, Annuar Ahmad, said several countries like England have dropped the number of subjects taken by students during this pandemic and given priority to core subjects.
“This doesn’t mean that other subjects are not important but for now we have to set priorities. For example, as core subjects, we cannot drop Bahasa Melayu and English as they may take some time for students to master,” he said.
