The paper details the principles of Pillar Modules, including their role in promoting equity, sustainability, and digital literacy. It explores various options for integrating these modules into the existing curriculum, emphasising the need for resource restructuring and interdisciplinary collaboration. The document also discusses the potential for expanding Pillar Modules into coherent streams, offering students a distinctive and flexible learning pathway. Recommendations are provided to guide the implementation and integration of Pillar Modules.
