Objectives of the Biology Chapter

The Biology Chapter is a platform to encourage pedagogical innovation and research-informed practice to impact teaching. It works closely with Curriculum Planning and Development Division and other related educational agencies to extend learning in Biology. Through collaboration and networking, it harnesses synergy among teachers in schools, MOE Divisions and professional associations.

The key objective of Biology Chapter is to enhance the capacity and capability of teachers in the learning and teaching of Biology.

The Master Teachers lead in facilitating professional development through courses and networks, such as:

Differentiated Instruction
Inquiry-based Learning
Assessment Literacy
ePedagogy
STEM
Learning Journeys
Professional learning sessions for BTs
Networked learning sessions e.g. ST-LT network

We organise various professional learning events for you:

Learning Day
Masterclasses
Professional conversations with overseas and local educators
