A Glossary to the blog

You will encounter some acronyms while reading this blog, just because I am a big fan that I don't need to type so much. LOL! I will probably explain what that means too...

By the way the items are not in alphabetical order, just listing them as and when they come to my head, okay. Here goes.

TVETTechnical and Vocational Education and Training-  is concerned with the acquisition of knowledge and skills for the world of work. They were also called Apprenticeship Training, Vocational Education, Technical Education, Technical-Vocational Education (TVE), Occupational Education (OE), Vocational Education and Training (VET), Professional and Vocational Education (PVE), Career and Technical Education (CTE), Workforce Education (WE), Workplace Education (WE), etc. 

CLILstands for Content and Language Integrated Learning. It refers to teaching subjects such as science, history and geography to students through a foreign language. This can be by the English teacher using cross-curricular content or the subject teacher using English as the language of instruction. Both methods result in the simultaneous learning of content and English. More on CLIL -> What is CLIL?

MOE - Ministry of Education (Malaysia in our case)

KK - Kolej Komuniti or Community College

KV - Kolej Vokasional or Vocational College

WKC - Westminster Kingsway College

LOL - Laugh Out Loud!

Any questions, just ask! Will update this list as and when required.
