One of the biggest shortcomings of the existing teaching methodology is that it puts more emphasis on learning of received knowledge. While this could be a possible starting point, but the gap remains in the ability of the children in not learning by rote but being able to use the received knowledge to think creatively about the issues and problems in their immediate surrounds and think through possible solutions. While every solution might not be implementable, what is emphasized is to put in every child a process and the requisite confidence to imbibe the Think-Ideate-Act-Lead continuum. TOI is aimed at pugging those holes which the present school set up cannot look into.
Less Than Half (47%) of Class V Students Can Read Class II Text.
Why?
Given that learning in schools is a one-way process of teacher lecturing and students being passive listeners, the inherent ability in each child to think and create gets rusted. Existing teaching methodology in schools do not provide for activities linked to the curriculum which challenge and provide a stimulus for the child.
We, at Treasure of Innocence, realise the need to empower students by catering to their multiple intelligences by designing a pedagogic system based on understanding and application and not recall.
Our skill-based creative learning processes like quiz and debate training program, story telling-writing, role play, art, music, personality development, IT, engage our beneficiary children, hailing from socio-economic marginalized background to reiterate their critical thinking and creativity. We, at ToI, are committed to making an impact on young lives.
