Selected Projects
Change School Pedagogy
Participant Engagement
All our sessions are active, maintain engagement and avoid fatigue: Our design processes use a mix of eight different types of activities as pedagogical learning components to inform our session-by-session design based on learning outcomes. Across our programmes, learning is structured appropriately to the type of learner and phase of learning to ensure real-world application of what is learned.
ChangeSchool partnerships with City University, London South Bank University and Essex University also produced 3 of the 5 national winners in Kyrgyzstan, Georgia and Uzbekistan
Learning Reinforcement
Embedded within our pedagogy, reinforcement occurs naturally as participants delve into experiential learning with provided resources. Through collaborative efforts and guided reflection, our approach encourages discovery-based learning, ensuring concepts are solidified through real-world application in simulations and virtual programmes, supported by mentors and networks.
