EDUCATION in Malaysia is an on-going effort towards further developing the potential of individuals in a holistic and integrated manner. Usually we analyse the National Education Philosophy word for word. The worst is emotional skills — none rate what they have learnt for emotional management at anything above two or three. Our National Education Philosophy is value-laden and comprehensive but focus is otherwise on reality. It’s time we retrain our teachers from preschool right up to university on the aims and objectives of the National Educational Philosophy and how they can transform their own teaching to ensure their subject matters involve the different domains.
