EUMIND 'How Digital' Coordinator's Visit to AIS

Mr. Arne Verhaegen, a team member of Euneos for EUmIND Europe and Coordinator of EUMIND 'How Digital' project has visited Ahlcon International School on October 22' 2013.

Students of EUMIND have organized different activities for the auspicious occasion under the guidance of EUMIND coordinators (Ms. Ekta Kandhari and Mr. S C Joshi) and it was a great learning experience altogether. Interacting with Mr. Arne has been a fruitful experience for all of us. We sincerely thank our school principal Mr. Ashok K Pandey for his constant guidance and support 

Here is the Official report of Mr. Arne's EUMIND visit to AIS sent by him upon his return to Europe.

          

Physics entries for LSI Young Change Agent Award 2013

Enjoyed guiding Vaibhav, Prerna, Yashvardhan, Zubin, Rachit & Samanyu (of AIS) for making videos demonstrating different physics principles. First video depicts the concept of conservation of mechanical energy using simple methods and the second one explains action and reaction and buoyancy to present for LSI Young Change Agent Award 2013. These entries were sent for the contest along with numerous other videos on different subject topics.

Physics of traditional Indian Games during Manthan at NIIT University

Manthan NU – 2013 

October 8’ 2013

            Giving a presentation on Physics of traditional Indian Games during Manthan AT NU – 2013 on October 8’ 2013 was a great learning experience for me. It was the first time when I have presented online in an event which is happening somewhere far away from me in real time. It was fascinating since I was not facing any audience and not able to get on the spot expressional responses from them. Mr. Ashoo Dubey Head, TCO, NIIT University was my partner in this presentation and looked after all the technical support very well. Question answer session was very interesting as the participants liked the theme and were able to relate it with their real life experiences.

I am thankful to Dr. Anuradha Parasar for giving me the opportunity of presenting online, Dr. Shradha Kanwar and Prof. Vijay Mandke from NIIT University for their guidance and all time support.     

‘Inclusion, Implementation and dissemination of ‘Game Based Teaching Model’

September 28, 2013

A workshop ‘Inclusion, Implementation and dissemination of ‘Game Based Teaching Model’ was organized at Ahlcon International School on September 28, 2013 for Middle and High School Teachers. Teachers from thirty schools from Delhi and NCR were invited to participate in this interactive event.  It was an endeavor as a part of Alumni Grant Activities of Fulbright DAT Scholarship of S C Joshi which was sponsored by Institute of International Education, United States and hosted by Ahlcon International School, Mayur Vihar, Phase – 1, Delhi. Prof V K Sud, an IIT’ian who served at NASA for eight years was the chief guest of the workshop. Workshop began with the preliminary note of Principal Ashok K Pandey and proceeded further with the key note address of the chief guest. A website gamebasedteachingmodel.com on ‘Game Based Teaching Model’ was launched by the distinguished guests. Ms. Sangita Maliwal, Vice – Principal of the school was also present in the workshop. Hands-on session was taken by Mr. S C Joshi on peer learning. Teacher participants from different schools were able to prepare lesson plans and presented them through microteaching.

Following were the focus areas of the workshop:

1.      Sharing Game based teaching model.

2.      Exchange of ideas to develop and promote activity based learning material.

3.      Brainstorming session on developing course (resource) material on “GBTM’.

4.      Gathering Inputs of academics (Sharing teaching styles through Peer Teaching Learning)

5.      Interactive panel discussion.

Workshop was concluded through an intensive panel discussion by distinguished experts and vote of thanks of Ms. Sunita Rajiv.

I am grateful to Mr. Ashok k Pandey, Principal, Ahlcon International School for his constant guidance during the planning & execution and consistent support for hosting this activity in the School without which it wouldn’t have been possible to organize this workshop. I am also thankful to Department of State, United States for providing financial assistance for this activity.
