Genius Corner
Sri Kakatiya knows that students learn in different ways and at different paces. And hence Sri Kakatiya has introduced a personalized learning programme, Genius Corner that is a teaching model based on that premise. Each student gets a “learning plan” based on how he learns, what he knows, and what his skills and interests are. It’s the opposite of the “one size fits all” approach used in most schools.
With personalised learning, Sri Kakatiyans form an integral part of the learning process. They work with their teachers to set both short-term and long-term goals, and they take ownership of their own learning.
Personalised learning is an approach to general education. It doesn’t replace an Individualized Education Program (IEP), response to intervention or other specialized intervention programs. Instead, this approach works with these programs to individualize student learning.
What is Genius Corner?
Genius Corner is an initiative towards making the learning experience personalized for each child, individually. The mission is to empower educators to know their students better and help them in crafting a unique experience for each student. For this, Genius corner empowers schools with technology providing rich analytics into each child’s performance.
How does it work?
Genius Corner works three stages:
- Assessment
- Analysis
- Personalized Action
Assessment
Genius Corner focuses on giving time-bound Diagnostic Assessments that help the students to have a real exam time experience even while practicing. It is based on BLOOM’s Taxonomy i.e. it covers the learning objectives in cognitive, affective and sensory domains. The assessments are all customized as per the school’s syllabus.
Analysis
Many times, the students feel like they were unable to produce the desired results even after a lot of preparation. Why does this happen? It is a result of a lack of analytical correction of the practice done by the student. Hence Genius corner helps in providing insights for students, parents, teachers & management that brings the focus on the loopholes of the practice and helps the child work on the weaknesses and needs of every student. Genius Corner provides concept level, questions level, BLOOM’s taxonomy analysis for the individual students. For bringing the child at par competition level Genius Corner also provides performance trends and class level reporting.
Personalised Action
After the result analysis, an ID and Password is generated for the student, through which Genius Corner provides competency-based learning material for each child as per the analysis. Also, it offers audio-visual aid for the areas of need. The child gets worksheets that focus on the area of improvement and help the child practice it more to get better. Also, the child can get access to the learning, at his comfort, wherever and whenever.
