UNIQUE TEACHING METHODOLOGY:

SDIS IS CONSIDERED TO BE VILLUPURAM’s FIRST SCHOOL WITH UNIQUE THREE DIMENSIONAL DEMONSTRATED ACTIVE LEARNING

Pedagogy or Teaching Methodology is the pivot around which education moves and it has two cardinal aspects: Its elements and its process. Sri Dharani International Senior Secondary  School has developed the elements of its teaching methodology after a careful survey of educational research across the world. The three elements of Teaching Methodology are:

Kinesthetic Learning: It constructs experiential learning through 3 dimensional models the efficacy of which in acquiring more complex skills has been well established by various global researches. It creates robust concept building and real life linkages.

Immersive Learning: It allows learners to be totally “immersed” in a self-contained or simulated environment while experiencing it as real. We create rich and complex content-based learning while also helping students to explore their technical, creative, and problem-solving skills.

Problem Based Learning: This thinking skill element of our methodology sharpens children’s thinking skill, the skill without which the potential of the knowledge cannot be utilized for problem solving. Inputs of the PBL (Problem Based Learning), coupled with Thinking skill learning, develops the problem solving ability of the children.

 CURRICULUM

The Curriculum of Sri Dharani Educational Institutions adheres to the National Curriculum Framework 2005 (NCF 2005) and the CBSE Curriculum. The institution believes that the classroom experiences of children are to be organized in a manner that permits them to construct knowledge in consonance with the child’s nature and context, thus providing equal learning opportunities for all children. Teaching aims at enhancing the child’s innate desire and acumen to learn. Activity is at the heart of children’s attempt to make sense of the world around them. Therefore, every resource is deployed in a child-centric manner to enable them to express themselves, handle objects, explore their natural and social milieu, and to grow up in good health.
