What is ahead.
COVID19- now still a major driving force, had
thrust us suddenly in 2020 into full Home-Based
Learning (HBL), and has shown us the powerful
potential of HBL for developing in students:

• Self-directedness and independence
• Self-discipline and self-management

Face-to-face lessons

• Learning is a social activity, allowing development of
   social-emotional learning
• Some subjects require special facilities and equipment
• May have to transit to HBL if COVID19 situation worsens

Principles behind MOE’s Cyber Wellness curriculum
Respect for Self and Others
uphold their own dignity when online (e.g. share appropriate content and participate in only legal online activities)
respect other people online (e.g. put themselves in others’ shoes, accept diverse views and opinions, give credit when
using other people’s work and seek permission where necessary, avoid sharing hurtful materials)

Safe and Responsible Use
have an understanding of the risks of harmful and illegal online behaviour, and take steps to protect themselves (e.g. keep
their personal information private, verify the reliability of information using various sources, take steps to avoid dangers
they may encounter online).
make wise and healthy choices (e.g. maintain a healthy balance of their online and offline activities).

Positive Peer Influence
be a positive role model online (e.g. share healthy and positive content, harness the affordances of technology to do good
for society).
advocate positive online behaviour (e.g. stand up for their peers online, report cases of cyber bullying to a trusted
adult/authority, post encouraging remarks on social media).                                           Your Logo or Name Here
