My name is Dr Wong Su Cheong, currently attached with UOW Malaysia KDU University College, School of Creative Arts and Communication as Senior Lecturer. My core research product was Integrated Creative Activity Instruction (ICAI) for Project-Based Learning. Currently I am working hard to make the ICAI framework into a model that can be widely used by educators for Project-Based Learning subjects.
