session. The majority of students were able to comprehend the content and
answer the questions accordingly.

scene of the mysterious murder case,
'Mariam’
Along
came the most exciting part of the programme which is the English murder
mystery case. The students were tasked with the assignment of finding out
who the so-called killer was. For them to find out and solve the case, they
must first collect clues from the 10 stations that consist of educational
games set up by the CEE crew. The activities were set up to promote the
English language in a fun way and showcase to students that language
learning does not have to be a bore! Additionally, the programme also served
to develop the soft skills of our UTAR student helpers aside from boosting
their confidence.

Students were divided into a total of 10 groups where they had to go from
station to station to collect clues and alibi to solve the murder mystery
case. There was a total of 10 stations set up and each station consisted of
English-language exercises students must solve as a team. The exercises
encourage students to think critically and work together as a team. Through
these games and activities, students can learn the value of teamwork.
