“The Art of Teaching is the Art of Assisting Discovery” by Mark Van Doren.
The above mentioned quote strongly mentions that Education is all about exploring, learning, relearning and unlearning.
The orientation for Cambridge teachers on “An introduction to course components” was scheduled on 17.06.23 it helped them understand better about the approach to Cambridge curriculum and how to integrate the Cambridge attributes (Responsible, Innovative, Confident, Engaging and Reflective) in the learners. The above attributes would help the learners take onus of their learning. The session aimed at providing detailed guidelines and information about the teaching pedagogies in sync with the curriculum. The resource person Ms Kavita Sanghvi provided information about Active Learning, Learning Cycle, Integrated Lesson Plans, Assessment, Experimentation and Connection between the Course components. An overview about Global English helped us to know how integrated concepts can be taken up at different levels. The activities taken up by her were practical, detailed, organized and very authentic.
Moving forward the Q&A session helped us to understand ways of bridging gaps between curriculums at various levels. The interactive session empowered the teachers with better ideas. Overall the session was very effective and enriching.
