In particular, we describe pilot studies and trials with 720 students and their teachers from twelve schools, and report the most important findings to inform development to make improvements and recommend strategies for their integration in the curriculum and classroom for the final rollout in primary and secondary schools across Singapore. %G English %Z TC 14 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01408566/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01408566/file/978-3-662-45212-7_27_Chapter.pdf %L hal-01408566 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01408566 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-LNCS-8770 %~ IFIP-ICEC %~ IFIP-TC14
