Rekindling Hearts
Value education courses in schools
Beginning with the ‘REKINDLING HEARTS’ program as a pilot project in few schools, from past 2 years in Kolkata, the current academic year has seen it expanding exponentially to schools across Kolkata, Kharagpur, Bhubaneshwar and Nagpur. We have successfully reached thousands of students.
Our curriculum is based on the NCF guidelines (2005) and Prof. Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences which emphasizes on activity-based experiential learning.
Glimpse of What we Teach
- Instilling ''SELF CONFIDENCE'' among children by imparting posititivity in their ways of thinking and feeling about themselves.
- Learning the art of ''TOLERANCE" under unfavourable circumstances.
- Nurturing the rare quality of "FORGIVENESS".
- Achieving the real freedom by knowing the art of converting "FEAR INTO HOPE''.
- How to ''STOP WORRYING AND START LIVING'' happily in life.
- Understanding the miraculous power of “POSITIVE ATTITUDE”.
- Learning co-operation and harmony for a common cause by imbibing the principle of "UNITY IS STRENGTH”.
Effective Teaching Strategies
- Systematic focus is placed on experiencing core universal values and practicing life skills, with four key sections: brief introduction; think and reflect/discuss scenario for core understanding; storytelling through audio visual inputs and activities/projects.
- Building classroom teaching resources and modules containing practical values activities and a range of methods like presentations, case studies, stories, role plays, dramas, videos and music, classroom activities (paper and pencil and participatory activities), and take home points.
- Experiential learning with inside and outside class approach occurs in partnership with students, staff, families and the school community to awaken the values in the students.
- Encouraging peer learning wherein they learn to explore and think for themselves, in the process also learning from them.
- Personal change record book, practical homework and personal commitment booklet is used to inspire a positive behavioural change in students.
