The Asian School hosted a two-day capacity building programme (CBP) on experiential learning on September 19 and 20. The workshop was organised by the CBSE Centre of Excellence for Teachers, Dehradun, and brought together educators to reimagine teaching practices through experiential methodologies.
The sessions were facilitated by the principal, The Asian School, Ruchi Pradhan Datta, and principal, Hill Grove Senior Secondary School, Dehradun, Lalita. They guided participants through interactive sessions and hands-on activities.
The workshop aimed to introduce educators to innovative pedagogical practices rooted in experiential learning, promoting hands-on, reflective and student-cantered teaching while equipping teachers with globally recognised frameworks such as Bloom’s Taxonomy, Kolb’s Learning Cycle and the LAAR Model (Learn–Apply–Assess–Reflect) for impactful lesson planning, the organisers said.
On the second day, the participants worked on applying a multidisciplinary approach within Kolb’s learning cycle. This was followed by a ‘gallery walk’ in which teachers wrote reflective comments on their peers’ projects, enriching the exercise with multiple perspectives.
