Curriculum Emphasis: Digital Competency

Digital competency is now a prerequisite for many jobs. To enhance students’ employability and familiarity with digital skills, the LTTC offers credit-bearing courses in digital competency, including AI Literacy, Digital Literacy, Exploring Real-Life AI Application Development, Capstone Project Pathway on AI and Emerging Technologies, and Learning Experience Outside the Classroom (CLOC) Course titled “Self-Regulated Learning in Artificial Intelligence with Chatbot”. Students are expected to attend the relevant courses based on their programme requirements and personal interests. The LTTC will issue e-badges to recognise students’ achievements in digital competency.

User Guides and Workshops on e-Learning and ePortfolio

LTTC has developed various online user guides for Moodle, Sway and Google Sites to support students. Students are welcome to register for the related workshops and get the related self-learning materials from the LTTC website.

Generic Intended Learning Outcomes (GILOs)

LTTC administers a self-assessment questionnaire for measuring students’ self-perceived achievement on GILOs. Students will receive an individual report which helps them to write reflection and set learning goals through ePortfolios. LTTC also provides workshops for students to connect GILOs to their learning and teaching.
