-   Students to be more proactive, involved & to learn with understanding,  not rote learning.

-  Teachers to get direct feedback from students.

-   Students performance to be evaluated on a more balance and wider perspective.

-   Adopt interactive teaching methodology, e.g. Q&A session, quiz, group work, activities for effective learning process.

-   Utilize & incorporate IT in classroom teaching.  E.g.  use audio-visual-aids as oppose to chalk & talk teaching, & e-learning.

-   Use real life situation to explain concept or when giving examples so that students can relate better and for easy understanding.

-   Increase 'Assessment Mark' from 10% to 20%  to include students work such as class work, homework, projects, assignment and so on.  This is for a more complete evaluation of students performance & to ensure consistency in students’ work throughout the year.

-   Encourage and motivate students by giving them positive feedback and reinforcement.
