Building global competence in an intercultural environment
At present, children live in a transforming world. Emerging digital, demographic, economic, and environmental factors shape the lives of young children. The complex intercultural environment presents both challenges and opportunities to sharpen their skills. Young children learn to appreciate cultural differences and benefit from interacting with children from different cultures and lifestyles.
Children pursuing education in an international school develop
global competence that builds multidimensional capacity in them. Being globally
competent, the children can analyse global, local, and intercultural issues.
They learn to appreciate the perceptions of others and respect their
views.
In an international primary school at
ASIS, standards are maintained to develop global competence in children from a
young age. We provide opportunities to look at issues that prevail both
locally and globally. With the latest e-learning technology, children
learn how to use digital information to gain knowledge and be successful in
their academics.
Global competence in academics promotes diverse cultures. It
encourages children to learn how to interact smoothly with others in social
life. While disruption of life happens because of ethnic or religious
intolerance, people living in diverse-cultural environments know how to accept
differences and live in peace. They know how to handle disagreements and find
solutions to social issues with ease.
Achieving global competence through education in schools
requires changes in the way children learn in their classes. It focuses
on the way they learn about changes that happen in other cultures and in the
world. The teachers support children by offering opportunities to
interact with students from diverse cultures. Teachers help them analyse
the root cause of problems that exist globally and build solutions that would
solve those issues effectively. Though it looks like a lifelong process
to develop an intercultural outlook globally, 21st-century skills can be
successfully built from a young age for a better future. It is the
willingness to show openly the desire to cooperate, interact, and engage with
people from a different culture.
ASIS
offers a holistic environment that stimulates, engages, and provokes excellent
learning moments for students. Educators at ASIS mentor students to travel
smoothly in their journey towards the knowledge process. The teachers at ASIS
help students from their tender age become natural learners, nurture their
interests, and sharpen their talents. Along with academic proficiency, ASIS
believes in inspiring learners at school to move towards greater heights. At
ASIS, we pay attention to what children are interested in and plan projects to
help them develop skills and knowledge.
