E2K (Mathematics and Science)
Discover how the E2K Mathematics and Science programmes build reasoning, inquiry and 21st century skills in the students
E2K Mathematics
The E2K Mathematics Programme is offered to students who demonstrate interest and aptitude in the subject. It develops students' mathematical reasoning skills and deepens their conceptual understanding through an inquiry approach.
During the programme, students will have opportunities to work independently or collaboratively as they engage in mathematical thinking through specially designed puzzles, games and mathematical explorations. As a result of these rich learning experiences, students will:
develop the habits, attitudes and dispositions mathematicians possess.
gain important 21st century competencies such as critical thinking, invention thinking and effective communication skills.
E2K Science
The E2K Science Programme is a science enrichment programme for students who demonstrate interest and ability in science. The programme aims to develop in our students scientific inquiry process skills, as well as nurture other important 21st century competencies such as resilience and resourcefulness, critical and inventive thinking, and effective communication skills.
Students learn Science by assimilating the process that scientists use to generate knowledge in Science. Just as scientists make mistakes in the real world, students are allowed to make mistakes during the sessions. Teachers help students to learn from their mistakes. Through collaborative learning and guidance provided by the teacher, students practise scientific thinking and reasoning, develop confidence and independence in carrying out scientific inquiry to answer their research questions.
