Shanti Asiatic goes the Biscope Way!

Shanti Asiatic School is one of the leading progressive schools of Ahmedabad. With belief in active and hands-on learning, the school this year has engaged its grade VIII students into a programme called the CEE ka Bioscope,CKB programme. Offered by Centre for Environment Education, the programme is an ICT enabled practice-based learning module meant for students of grades VII-IX.

 
 
In July this year a CKB module for grade VIII students focussed on “Sustainable Agriculture’ and the module aims at  helping students understand the evolution and development of agriculture.  Students are also involved in exploring some close and critical connections that Agriculture has with the daily life of an urban Indian today. 

With a focus on enquiry-based approach, the CKB programme is reaching out to over 60 children of Grade VIII. The module involves interaction of students with maps, satellite imageries and several computer-enabled data interpretation applications, appropriately combined with several other teaching techniques including field visits, classroom sessions, games and activities.

We are sure that this “Real learning” will offer a new and wide   perspective to our students’ knowledge horizon
