Exposure & Experiences

The exponential growth of technology in terms of - Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things - has changed the how we look at the world. This has resulted in drastic change in the scenario of jobs and professions. Therefore, in the recent years there has been a change in expectations of the outcomes from the education system, especially in the developed and developing countries. The needs of education have changed and innovation-leadership skills-creativity are the key words for describing the required qualities of future generations.

"One of our core methodologies involves adoption of a collaborative and interactive learning pattern - that brings all the subjects within the periphery of the child's personal experiences."

Anticipating these future needs and changing global environment GDS has developed a program that helps students to acquire these qualities, skills and personality traits which will help them to face the future challenges.

​

A continuous and consistent effort is made to develop children’s innate skills for living their lives efficiently and successfully. To achieve this, it is important to provide children the necessary opportunities in the early stages of their lives. An additional objective is to facilitate the development of their personality by making them put their own physical and mental skills to use as much as possible.

  • Critical thinking: The ability to analyse and examine given information objectively.

  • Creative thinking: The ability to think in an unconventional and innovative way about a problem or situation, rather than follow the dictates of tradition or habit.

Children are expected to acquire the above skills through the medium of school education. It will be possible to teach the children most of the above skills and give practice in using them, if the activities are goal-oriented and properly mapped to the specific objectives. This is achieved at GDS in various ways like extra-curricular activities, research and even something as simple as an informal dialogue.
