Collaborative Learning Model

85% of a teacher’s time is spent in routine tasks: preparation and delivery of content (4 out of 7 periods a day), formative and summative assessments, house-keeping and record-keeping chores. As a result, she finds it a challenge to spend quality time and personalize learning; to teach the child, and not just the subject. After all, that is her primary role.

We intend to introduce teacher-robots in the near future; they will make the teacher more relevant than what they are today. This will be marked by complementary between human teachers and robots as shown below:

From the CEO/MD’s desk

At Indus, we believe that holistic education (one step higher than whole-education) is the only way to prepare children for a future we do not know. This is why the role of the teacher is to teach the child, and not the subject alone.

The holistic approach to education challenges the assumption that, learning is a cognitive activity for economic benefits. Consequently, holism is based upon the following concepts:

  • The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Do not see the world and the child as separate parts, because we are interconnected, and have responsibilities towards each other.
  • Education must help the child to discover her potential.
  • Every child is unique. This uniqueness arises when her potential is unlocked – her passion, her creativity, and her higher purpose in life.

 

With warm regards,
