QUICKLE BY QIU TESL STUDENTS
Organising the QUICKLE conference is part of a requirement under a course for final year students. In this course, students are exposed to the entire process of conducting a conference – starting from proposals, budgets, menus, venues, sponsorships, finding keynote speakers, familiarising with protocols and other related interesting requisite elements of organising a conference. The essence of the event is that students are given a platform to present their research project paper prepared during their Research Paper course
ACT IT OUT!
The TESL students of Cohorts 10 and 11 conducted a workshop on drama entitled ACT IT OUT! The main objective of the event is for the workshop participants to develop the basic skills of drama, including use of voice, gestures and facial expressions. The workshop will benefit the participants as they will be introduced to various skills related to drama and performance. The participants will also have the opportunity to participate in a drama competition and display their acting talents.
