Assets

Learning is multidimensional process a kid will learn a concept through different things like media, printable, activity and Quiz. This helping aid is called Assets.

The assets are divided into four categories

1) Media : - This icon represents media of TCE. The visual medium has a great appeal for today's students. That said, research has proven that student's comprehension level reduces when the visual assets are of longer duration. Therefore, Tata ClassEdge makes use of short-duration multimedia assets to:

Briefly explain concepts that are difficult to visualize for studentsArouse curiosity about a topicGenerate discussions in classroomsProvide opportunities to interact with the medium and receive feedback

Tata ClassEdge also makes use of more immersive multimedia formats like Virtual Labs and Games. There are also several interactive tools (such as Geo Board, Number Line, Periodic Table, Maps, Timelines, etc.) available for teachers to illustrate important topics.

2) Printable

This icon represents printable of TCE. Printable is nothing but documents which can be printed by teachers. It is further divided in to 2 category i.e. i) Worksheet, ii) Handouts.

i) Worksheets: - The worksheet is only can be used by children. Teachers can give worksheet to students as assignments, home work and test. It’s depending on the teachers for what purpose they want to use it.

ii) Handouts: - The benefits of handout are it can be used by students as well as by teachers. The handout is a type of additional notes and it helps in performing different kind of activities like flash card and picture card games and teacher can use readymade picture of handout to explain the concept.

3) Activity

This icon represents the activity of TCE. Every activity is designed in TCE is based on the Multiple Learning Experiences (M-LEx) model and hence it is very important that teacher should go through the activity, the moment when teacher reads the activity he come to know how to perform the activity with the help of media and printable, Media and printable are the subset of activity. There are different kind of

activity i.e. Audio, Visual, Kinesthetic, Group discussion, Whole class discussion, Play, Outdoor, Media, Lab Experiment, etc.

4) QuizzesThere will be a quiz at the end of every lesson to help students recall the main points covered in the lesson. The quiz questions are framed to elicit students' comprehension, application and analytical skills.

5) Plug Points It is interdisciplinary learning which connects 1 topic of a subject to many other topics of same or different subjects. It can used in relating known concept to unknown concept, which helps in better understanding of concept. Teacher can assign plug points as a project activity to students which help in building research skills in students. The 3rd way of using plug point is group discussion in class, this group discussion act as reinforcement of concept and at the same time it helps the teacher to know how much student attain the information.

Lesson Plans

The Tata ClassEdge Lesson Plans have been carefully designed by instructional design experts with a wide exposure to Indian and international teaching methodologies.

The instructional framework that Tata ClassEdge uses is called the Multiple Learning Experiences Model—a model designed by Tata Interactive Systems.

The model is developed on the premise that when students use multiple senses (hearing, seeing, and doing) and are involved in a variety of activities, they will be better involved with learning and will have better retention of concepts. The model makes use of distinct types of activities that promote diverse skills in students, including critical thinking, creativity, teamwork, communication skills, presentation skills, etc. As a result, each lesson plan makes use of well thought out individual and group activities, field trips and projects. These plans also provide Extension Activities for both struggling and gifted learners as well as interesting interdisciplinary correlations, called Plug Points.

Extension:- Divided in to two categories

A) Reinforcement and

B) Challenge Series

Reinforcement: - Reinforcement series for slow bloomers / slow learners

Challenge series:- For smart and intelligent students. This series will make students to use their thinking skills and innovative minds.
