For our first session of this year, we will be exploring myths about teaching and learning and how educational psychologists can critically evaluate research claims and distinguish evidence-based practices from those lacking substantive support. To facilitate our discussion, we will be reflecting on Dr. Daniel Willingham's webinar on "Truthiness" in Educational Psychology which is available on YouTube.

⏰ Remember to join us this Tuesday at 8.30pm. The Zoom link will be provided to all MEPS members on the day itself.

And if you're not currently a member, we invite you to become a part of MEPS! Register now by clicking here!

The Sektor Pendidikan Khas, Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri Sembilan (JPNS) conducted a specialised training session for members of the Malaysia Educational Psychology Society (MEPS) on the screening process for identifying students requiring special needs support. The training focused on equipping participants with the knowledge and skills to assess students effectively and determine their eligibility for special needs programmes and classes. Key topics included understanding the screening criteria, administering appropriate tools and assessments, recognising early indicators of special needs, and interpreting results accurately. This initiative aimed to enhance the capacity of MEPS members to support the early identification and placement of students in suitable educational settings.

We welcome new members to join our growing community of mental health advocates - your involvement will further strengthen our capacity to support students in need whilst gaining valuable professional experience in psychological assessment.
