At Yew Chung Yew Wah School, we believe in the power of technology to enhance learning and teaching. We integrate technology into our classrooms in a variety of ways:
Interactive Whiteboards: Our classrooms are equipped with interactive whiteboards that make lessons more engaging. Teachers can use these tools to present information in a dynamic way, incorporating videos, audio clips, and interactive activities.
Educational Apps and Platforms: We utilize various educational apps and platforms to supplement traditional teaching methods. These tools offer personalized learning experiences, allowing students to learn at their own pace and in their own style.
Online Collaboration Tools: We encourage collaboration through online tools such as Google Classroom. This allows students to work together on projects, share ideas, and provide feedback to each other.
Digital Libraries: Our students have access to digital libraries where they can find a wide range of e-books, academic journals, and other educational resources.
E-Learning Days: We occasionally organize e-learning days where students learn from home using digital resources. This prepares them for the digital world and promotes independent learning.
Coding and Robotics: To prepare our students for the future, we also offer lessons in coding and robotics. These lessons help develop problem-solving skills and logical thinking.
We ensure that all uses of technology are safe and appropriate, with strict guidelines and policies in place to protect our students. Moreover, we provide regular training for teachers to keep them updated with the latest educational technology trends.

CEM

We ensure that our students are well-prepared for the CEM tests. Our teachers incorporate test-related content and skills into everyday lessons, and we also offer practice sessions to familiarize students with the test format and question types.

In addition to preparing students for the tests, we believe it's important to educate them about the purpose and value of these assessments. We encourage our students to view the CEM tests as tools for understanding their own learning, rather than simply exams to pass.

Overall, the use of CEM tests at Yew Chung Yew Wah School is just one way we strive to create an engaging, supportive, and effective learning environment for all our students.

At Yew Wah School, we believe that homework is an important part of the learning process. It helps to reinforce what students have learned in class, prepares them for upcoming lessons, teaches them responsibility, and helps them develop good study habits.
Homework assignments vary according to the grade level and subject. They could include reading assignments, problem-solving exercises, research projects, or practice worksheets. We strive to ensure that homework is meaningful and directly related to the curriculum.

G1-G2: each subject should not exceed 20 minutes per day; G3-G4: each subject should not exceed 30 minutes per day; G5-G6: each subject should not exceed 40 minutes per day; G7-9 overall homework should not exceed 120 minutes per day.
