A panel meeting was held in May 2019. The Panellists reviewed
and refined all the General Objectives to ensure that they
captured the cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains.
Specific Objectives, and the related Content were examined
and adjusted where deemed necessary to ensure that the
depth and scope were clear. Some Specific Objectives were
reworded, rearranged in a logical teaching order, new ones
written and a few deleted in the Modules.
The suggested teaching and learning activities were reviewed
for all modules to help teachers engage students in learning
experiences which would equip them with the relevant
mathematical and technical competencies, transferable skills
such as critical thinking, innovativeness, team work, problem-
solving, communication, and other life skills while catering to
the different learning styles. The suggested list of resources
was also updated.
Additional meetings will be held to refine the objectives,
content, assessment and specimen paper in preparation for
submission to the April 2019 meeting of SUBSEC.
