33 陈嘉玲医生询问教育部长:(a) 教育部如何确保学校课程定期更新,使学生具备与未来经济相关的技能,特别是在数字化、可持续发展、医疗保健及相关医疗保健等增长领域;(b) 此类审查与业界协商的频率如何;(c) 如何确保教育路径与人力需求强劲且新兴的行业之间的对接。

李显龙先生:教育部及我们的高等院校(IHLs)定期审查学校及高等院校的课程,确保学生发展在未来经济中茁壮成长所需的能力和技能。此过程会与利益相关者协商,如行业机构和业界代表,确保课程能响应最新发展和议题、新兴趋势及行业需求。此外,高等院校的学术人员通过行业实习和项目等多种机会接触业界,以保持其行业前沿知识。

对于学校而言,每门学科的课程通常每六至八年审查一次。然而,在快速变化的领域,例如人工智能(AI),我们已将AI素养纳入学生数字素养和技术技能的课程及课外课程开发中。可持续发展作为一个主题已融入科学和人文学科大纲,为学生提供坚实基础,以便在更高层次学习相关科目。

至于我们的高等院校,工艺教育学院和理工学院每年在课程和模块层面进行课程审查,每三年左右进行更深入的机构层面课程及教学审查。这些审查基于来自业界的反馈,包括其学术咨询委员会及其他合作伙伴。同样,自主大学通过其学术咨询委员会每两至五年定期审查课程,对于变化更快的行业课程则审查更频繁。

33 Dr Charlene Chen asked the Minister for Education (a) how does the Ministry ensure school curricula are regularly updated to equip students with skills relevant to the future economy, particularly in growth areas like digitalisation, sustainability, healthcare, and allied healthcare; (b) how frequently are such reviews conducted in consultation with industry; and (c) how is alignment ensured between education pathways and sectors with strong and emerging manpower demand.

Mr Desmond Lee : The Ministry of Education and our Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs) regularly review the curriculum in our schools and IHLs to ensure students develop the competencies and skills needed to thrive in the future economy. This is done in consultation with stakeholders, such as sector agencies and industry representatives, to ensure that the curriculum is responsive to latest developments and issues, emerging trends and industry needs. In addition, the IHLs’ academic staff have various opportunities for industry exposure, such as through industry attachments and projects, to maintain their industry currency.

For schools, the curriculum for each subject is typically reviewed around once every six to eight years. However, in cases where there are fast-changing developments, for example, Artificial Intelligence (AI), we have added AI literacy into the development of students' digital literacy and technological skills within the curriculum and co-curriculum. Sustainability is a theme that has been incorporated into subjects, such as the Science and Humanities syllabi, providing students with a strong foundation to access related subjects at a higher level.

As for our IHLs, the Institute of Technical Education and polytechnics conduct reviews of curricula at the course and module levels annually, with more in-depth institutional reviews of curricula and delivery of courses conducted around every three years. These reviews are informed by feedback from industry including their academic advisory committees and other partnerships. Similarly, the Autonomous Universities conduct regular reviews of their course curricula through their academic advisory boards every two to five years, with more frequent reviews for courses in sectors that are more fast-changing.
