What is Geo-Inquiry Process?

The Geo-Inquiry Process is a powerful way to put the National Geographic Learning Framework into action and create critically thinking and informed citizens who are able to take action at local, regional, and global scales. The students will explore the topic through geo-inquiry which helps to develop critical thinking skills and questioning the world around them. As they work through the geo-inquiry process, they will enhance their problem-solving skills, and grow an explorer’s mindset. It is a student-driven 5-step process that serves as a framework to analyze local issues. The five phases are: ASK-COLLECT-VISUALIZE-CREATE-ACT.

Main Features:

  • An instructional strategy that, helps students develop the attitudes, skills, knowledge, and tools of a Geographer.
  • It provides a systematic way to investigate and understand the world through the patterns, processes, and interactions between human and natural systems.
  • Inspires students to take action on issues they identify in order to make a difference in their own communities
  • Geo- Inquiry Project begins in Grade-IV and the nal project is offered in Grade- V.
Service Learning Programme

The “Service-Learning Programme” (SLP) is for students to understand their capacity to make a meaningful contribution to their community and society. Through service, students develop and apply personal and social skills in real-life situations involving decision-making, problem-solving, initiative, responsibility, and accountability for their actions. The programme introduces collaborative engagements within the school in response of the authentic need of the community.

  • The programme is designed for the students of Grades 3-5.
  • The projects are inspired by Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) given by the UN
  • The programme follows a learning cycle inspired by Challenge based learning (CBL).

What, Why & How?

WHAT?

Challenge based learning is a collaborative learning experience in which students and teachers work together to learn about compelling issues, propose solutions to real problems, and take action. The approach asks students to reflect on their learning, study the impact of their actions and present their learning to the school community. For us CBL is deeply ingrained in developing community service as a learning goal for students

WHY?

Community projects help students to develop empathy and compassion for their community and environment. They learn to understand the consequences of their choices and how they can act in a responsible way. The program further enhances the sense of ownership among students by encouraging them to involve in activities that supports their local community.

HOW?

Challenge Based Learning begins with a big idea and cascades to the following: the essential question; the name of the project chosen; guiding questions, activities, and resources; determining and articulating the solution; taking action by implementing the solution; assessment; and publishing the solution and sharing it with the community. Reflection on each step is an important part of the process
