School of Excellence
After the success in 2013, at its first edition, the School of Excellence returned in Semester 1, exploring higher order thinking in Humanities.
From compare and contrast, to simplifying a problem and analysing it, to meta cognition, the students explored techniques to enhance their learning through engaging and challenging activities. Analysing aspects of civilization at a small scale, students provided answers to some big questions of life, designed their ideal neighborhood, solved environmental problems and marveled at the workings of the brain.
Quotes:
“I really enjoyed learning about the brain”
“I loved designing my neighbourhood”
“The most, I enjoyed the question if rocks have rights”
“I’d love to come back next year”
