More lessons in primary schools could adopt interactive or multimedia elements.
SINGAPORE – Upper primary school pupils will have more opportunities to use digital devices for learning in school, even as Education Minister Chan Chun Sing said his ministry takes a more “nuanced” approach to technology use.
“We make this distinction because we want to strengthen our ability to guide them in their self-regulated use, because you must use devices with discipline and responsibility,” said Mr Chan.“At that age, we want more materials, more experience, guiding them before we consider the next step as to whether we should or should not issue them devices.”
Singapore has a more nuanced understanding of tech use, said Mr Chan. “Our question is not ‘to use or not to use’,” he said. “Our question is really how to use, for who, for what purposes?” The impact on brain development can be quite different, depending on whether screen time is used for social media, games or learning, he said.
