Information Communication Technology

Kbotics is a school-wide Robotics Programme that is integrated into the curriculum, developed for the P1 to P6 students. The aim is to equip the students with  computational and coding skills to pursue 21st century opportunities and to garner their interest in the field of Computer Science concepts that can serve as the enabler skill set for them to bring to fruition the prototypes they hope to create/make as part of their VIA-infused IPW products, where relevant.

The modules designed for the various levels comprise three coding roadmaps:-

    • Lower Primary (P1-P2) : Lego Wedo 2.0 Roadmap 

        • building a robot using Lego bricks and programming it based on logical sequence and creativity

    • Middle Primary (P3-P4) : Drones Roadmap

        • learning how different electronic components work, including the coding of drones

    • Upper Primary (P5-P6) : Micro:bit Roadmap

The school recognises the need and importance of educating students in becoming a discerning digital citizen. Students of today are born in the digital world and as digital natives, they use digital media to explore, connect, create, and learn in many ways. As they become tech savvy and have much exposure to digital devices and internet platforms, they may face complex issues online. As such, students need the guidance and support in using technology appropriately.

DCE is about educating students to exercise good decision making in the digital world. It creates the foundation for teaching students the issues they need to be aware of when using technology. This educational  exposure allows students to think critically, behave safely and participate responsibly  in the digital world. Thus, the school aims to empower students with the core values and necessary skill sets as their online lives require the same attention as their offline lives.
