i-Excel Heuristic and Model Approach series aims at assisting pupils in developing their problem solving skills and the correct thinking processes.  Pupils will be aware of and develop a set of good habits of mind, and acquire a set of thinking skills and problem solving heuristics.  The non-routine problems will hone their creative  and critical thinking skills to enable them to build confidence in solving visualisation and application-based questions.

Its unique incorporation of Sticker Pasting Model Activities is fun and it also plays an important role in cultivating pupils' interest in working out word problems while enhancing their understanding and process skills.
