2022 finds us opportunities and challenges, yet we committed ourselves to fight a good fight in our lives. At the Centre for Modern Languages (CML), thanks to the dedication, support and passion of all academicians, administrators and the technical team, everything was made possible. 2022 has been a great year, and here are some of the amazing chapters captured through the lens.
GLEEFUL DAY WITH UMPLCC 2022
20 December 2022 – In Malaysia, being bilingual or trilingual is a common admirable trait, but to be a polyglot or a hyperpolyglot?
5 October 2022 – Centre for Modern Languages (CML) has successfully organised an English enrichment programme on 28 September 2022, involving 144 participants of upper secondary students from 18 schools of Pekan District.
The one-day programme was a co joint effort with Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Indera Shahbandar (SMKIS) and was held in conjunction with the implementation of a learning program organised by Menara Gading Academy UMP Yayasan Al-Sultan Abdullah (AMG UMP YASA).
10 December 2022 – Kate DiCamillo has quoted that, reading should not be presented to children as a chore or duty but should be offered to them as a precious gift at which the quote relates well with the main objective of the Trilingual Reading Camp: to provide the primary students an opportunity to learn Malay, English and Chinese language in a thematic and interesting way.
For this reason, Mandarin Language Society (MLS) has organised a Trilingual Reading Camp in collaboration with SJK (C) Pei Chai and Hu Miao Studio that took place in SJK (C) Pei Chai, Kuantan from 8.00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m.
