Next Learning Platform (NLP)
Our Philosophy
We aim to bring exploration and experimentation to EVS. It is also available as NextScience & NextSocialStudies.
-
To encourage learners explore and critically understand their world alongside others, and make them better citizens
-
To nurture children’s curiosity and encourage them to express their learnings, thereby turning them into active participants from passive learners
-
To facilitate better retention of concepts through child-centric and experiential approach coupled with stories and activities
-
To raise environmental awareness and develop eco-sustainable behaviour by means of an interdisciplinary approach
Teaching Approaches to Promote Exploration and Experimentation
-
The enquiry-based teaching includes posing questions and encouraging self-directed research of learners
-
Activity-based learning like hands-on experiments help students remember concepts longer
-
Story-based approach introduces a new concept giving pictorial examples. Once students have a basic understanding, teachers move on to an abstract approach
-
The curriculum meets the different needs of the different intelligences of the students in a classroom
Content discussion through critical thinking questions
Textbooks
Step-wise discussion of topics
Life Skills for knowledge and personality building
- Impeccably structured content of textbooks and companion book to fulfil learning needs of learners
- Recapitulates the child’s previous knowledge before setting the stage for present topic
- Lucid step-by-step discussion condenses large amounts of information on various topics
- Equips students with useful Life skills to enrich their knowledge and personality
- A checklist for students to gauge the extent of their understanding of the concepts
- Classroom Practices:
- Each chapter is packed with multiple activities and projects to reinforce the concepts learnt
- Variety of activities like play based, model making, arts and craft classroom activities
Interactive Digital Books
- They enable learning to happen from any where, at any time, using mobile, tablet or a computer
- You can read, watch videos, annotate while learning, partake in activities and also work on assignments
- Reports for assignments are generated that highlight the learners’ strength and areas that call for improvement
TeachNext
- Interactive digital books that make learning fun
- Accessibility of audiovisual modules any time, at anyplace using a computer, tablet or mobile
- Annotate videos while learning, partake in activities and also work on assignments
