General Paper
Sharpen your thinking and communication skills through GP at VJC. Engage in lively debates on real-world issues and develop your own informed worldview.
GP helps students think critically, construct arguments cogently, and communicate clearly. The GP paper comprises an essay and a comprehension section. GP in VJC takes the form of tutorials in which you will be engaged in discussions on social, political, economic, cultural, educational and global issues. Be prepared to get involved in debates and discussions, thrashing out issues with your peers and your tutor, defining your own world view as well as learning about issues and ideas you have never considered before. In a nutshell, GP is all about viewpoints: yours and others. It will probably be the most important subject you will ever take in your life, and the springboard to becoming a mature and discerning adult.
