NiE spreads its wing


Fun learning with the newspaper: Shoba (standing, left) and Mohd Badrul Azhar (standing, right) with students during an NiE session at his tuition centre.

WITH the onset of the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic and the subsequent movement control order, the learning tempo of Malaysian schools was disrupted. When schools were closed, for some students, it meant that they could not participate in Newspaper-in-Education (NiE) classroom activities which they had always looked forward to.

By August when schools had fully reopened, Pusat Tuisyen Impian Bonda principal Mohd Badrul Azhar Zulkapli found NiE to be the perfect tool to jump-start English classes at his centre located in Seremban. Mohd Badrul Azhar organised an NiE session, facilitated by English teacher Shoba Dev, for a small group of students.
