Saranya and Rebekah hard @ work A total of 20 pupils from 3E1 were selected to attend an advanced elective module on Materials Science facilitated by Republic Polytechnic.
The AEMs are one of the recommendations of the Polytechnic-School Review Committee (PSRC) to enrich the school curriculum with more applied learning options. Sembawang Secondary School is happy to work in partnership with Republic Polytechnic to offer an AEM on Materials Science.

These AEMs serve to provide our students with an understanding of the applications of Chemistry and Physics in their curriculum. During the AEM sessions, students would be introduced to a wide range of natural and synthetic materials and their different applications by relating to their unique structural properties. Advances in technologies such as replacing copper telephone wires with optical fibres, making smaller and better hand phones and computers will be explored.

Indrani, Saktheswari, Sivan, May Day and Chen Hong @ Presentation TimeThe pedagogical approach taken is one that involves a problem-driven curriculum requiring students to seek evidence to support, refute or throw doubt on a hypothesis or proposed solution to a given problem scenario. This process helps students to develop an open but questioning mind, much valued in the science classroom.
