CORE for CPS Students. Personal Development

CORE personal development classes

ONLY FOR CPS STUDENTS OF THE CURRENT ACADEMIC YEAR 2020-2021

CORE shall be open for other students soon.

Dear Parents, keeping in mind that the students already have online lectures, we are glad to announce that the CORE training this year will be entertaining. The lessons will be given in the form of entertaining pre-recorded videos, that will have a questionnaire at the end of each lesson and live interaction with the trainer. 

Together, let's build the learner's psychological health and teach them the life skills necessary for the future. The pandemic has already taught us the importance of some skills like resilience, adaptability, managing anxiety, living in harmony with others, self-responsibility, empathy, pro-activity, regulating screen usage, etc.

Method of delivery: Pre-recorded entertaining videos in the form of friends- family drama followed by an interactive discussion with a trainer. A mixture of topics from the list shall be portrayed informally, keeping the child’s attention and interest in mind. A short questionnaire at the end of each episode will ensure that the child takes away appropriate learning. They can ask questions at the end of the questionnaire which shall be answered by the trainer.

Platform- Google Classrooms of Centre Point schools. The videos will be relayed one time in their classroom. They are not available for downloading or viewing later. Hence the students shall be responsible for their attendance and attention. The links will appear in the classrooms of the students.

Duration- 40-45 minutes per episode including discussion and the video. The questionnaire will take about 5 more minutes to answer thus minimizing the additional screen time used by students.
