As the echoes of the psychology talk and school visit lingered in the halls of SMK Sinar Bintang, it became evident that this event was more than just a gathering; it was a catalyst for change. By inspiring young minds and empowering them with the wisdom of psychology, this achievement went far beyond the classroom walls. It sowed the seeds of curiosity, critical thinking, and empathy, nurturing future leaders who are not just academically enriched but also emotionally intelligent.
In this collaborative effort between educators and students, the Psychology Talk and School Visit at SMK Sinar Bintang became a testament to the transformative power of education. It showcased that through shared knowledge, genuine passion, and collaborative spirit, we can pave the way for a brighter, more enlightened future, one student at a time.
In a heartwarming event that bridged the realms of education and psychology, Ms. Priscilla Malar Lawrence and Ms. Pavitra Muniandy, dedicated Psychology lecturers from the Faculty of Education, Language & Psychology (FOELPM), embarked on a transformative journey. This occasion, orchestrated by the passionate collaboration of educators and driven by the vision of nurturing young minds, marked a significant achievement for both the visiting lecturers and the students involved.
With enthusiasm as their guiding light, 13 students from the Theories of Learning Class stepped into the realm of mentorship, actively engaging with the pupils of SMK Sinar Bintang. Under the guidance of Priscilla Malar Lawrence and Pavitra Muniandy, these students not only attended the psychology talk but also took the lead in facilitating discussions. Their eagerness to share their knowledge and excitement about applying psychology was palpable, creating an atmosphere of infectious enthusiasm.
The interactive sessions were nothing short of inspiring, with each student presenter bringing a unique perspective to the table. The audience was captivated by the presentations, including one on “Building Positive Mindset,” a topic that resonated deeply with the young listeners. Additionally, the discussion delved into essential psychological concepts such as “Motivational Learning” and “Learned Helplessness.” These thought-provoking themes not only captured the attention of the students but also left them eager to explore the depths of psychology further.
The success of this enriching experience was made possible by the dedicated efforts of the event’s organisers. Andy Low, the passionate Marketing Executive, collaborated seamlessly with Chin Chiew Ping, the Vice Principal of SMK Sinar Bintang, to ensure the event’s seamless execution. Their joint efforts created an environment where learning was not only educational but also deeply inspiring.
