Moreover, the pre-service secondary school teachers vouched that the Project KINANG provided them learning experiences and encounters that were morale boosting and motivating; hastening task management, teaching effectiveness, curiosity, and innovation; inspiring the pre-service secondary school teachers to become researchers; improving the pre-service secondary school teachers' communication skills; and heightening collaboration that provided them avenues to learn new ideas.
