Learning Lab


Art n Design helps in establishing Learning Lab, a dynamic space that fosters creativity, innovation, and a deeper understanding of the world in a collaborative environment. To facilitate hands-on learning experiences and experimentation, Art n Design's Learning Lab emphasizes on active participation, problem-solving, and exploration rather than passive listening or rote memorization.

The Learning Lab helps to derive the student's Learning Curve.

Learning Curve

The learning curve describes how students acquire new skills and knowledge over time. This concept is invaluable for educators, offering insights into student progress and enabling the creation of effective learning strategies. By tracking student progress, teachers can:

  • Identify areas where students need extra support or guidance.
  • Foster motivation and enhance attention spans.
  • Provide specific and constructive feedback to students by analyzing their learning curves, highlighting areas of strength and areas for improvement.
  • Promote a growth mindset in students by emphasizing that mistakes and setbacks are an inherent part of the learning journey.
  • After measuring 12 factors across scholastic and co-scholastic areas, a learning curve is generated.
  • Helps in design uniform and structure IEP
  • Helps in monitoring the regular performance and progress of the student

By understanding their own learning processes, students can develop more efficient and effective learning habits, leading to improved academic performance. Ultimately, the insights gained from learning curves equip students with the skills and adaptability necessary for success in their future careers.

“A VALUABLE ADDITION TO CURRICULUM”

We introduced Art & Design to the students of Vimarsha in June 2022. The course curriculum is very well planned and structured to cater to different levels. The books are standardised while the worksheets are flexible. This works very well for students with varied abilities. Based on our students’ aptitude, we started with levels 3, 4, 5 and 6. We have been able to easily integrate this subject into our system. Children have shown tremendous improvement in concentration and hand-eye coordination. This has been a valuable addition to our curriculum. We are very happy to see all our students benefit and enjoy this coursework. AIMS Media coordinator worked along with Vimarsha teachers to arrive at workable time table. Lessons are very simple and visually appealing. The periodic assessments are also very well planned. Art & Design is truly a fun and learn subject for our students.



“STRUCTURED CURRICULUM ENHANCING SKILLS”

The Art & Design subject trained students in the therapeutic benefits of the arts and transforming their skill sets. It is a structured curriculum that enhances cognitive skills and automatically children learning academic skills. When children get interested in creative work, it reduces their behavioural problems and increases their attention span, and also enhances their learning ability.

“ART IS A BEAUTIFUL WAY OF EXPRESSION”

At Shankar Foundation we always believe that art is a beautiful way of expression. We have been working with the concept since many years. But AIMS Media’s Art & Design course added more meaning to our belief. The course stimulated creativity and stimulation. It is providing different experience and special way of understanding and responding to the world of art. What I have observed is children are able to follow balance, pattern, rhythm, emphasis with the systematic training and techniques. Thanks to AIMS Media for creating learning opportunities in most meaningful way.

“AN OPTIMUM BENEFITS FROM ART & DESIGN”

The thought behind implementing Art & Design was to develop their creativity, reasoning, and overall cognitive development. The students are enjoying the class. They are learning the concepts joyfully. Some of the students are facing problem as it is in virtual mode. To obtain an optimum benefit, the program should have been implemented for all which unfortunately was not possible in a pandemic. The teachers benefit from the monthly training and there is a scope for interaction to resolve the issues that the students are facing. As per students’ needs, how to modify the worksheets as per students’ needs are shared by the teachers and accordingly, the worksheets are developed. The teachers are also given an idea of how to instruct the students for better results.



“UNIQUENESS OF THE SUBJECTS MOTIVATES STUDENTS TO LEARN MORE”

“Art & Design helped our students in many different ways in terms of behaviour, functional areas etc. Uniqueness of the subject which motivated and kept our students and educators indulged into it was customization of worksheets as per the ability of the individual(s). The method to learn and perform the activities was very much simplified which resulted into progress in the bars of performance in the report card of many students.”

“EFFECTIVE DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENTS”

Students show improvement in various skills after joining Art & Design classes. As they refine their learning skills and motor skills some students have shown improvement in behavioural issues and their attention span increases too.



“HELPFUL FOR SPECIAL NEEDS CHILDREN”

“Art and design books were given to us with different levels for different age groups and aptitude of our children. They are well designed in curriculum for differently abled children. Throughout the year the course was divided into various topics; and for each topic, training and methodology was explained to our staff in advance. We appreciate the hard work and thoughtfulness applied in creating this booklet.”
