Description
Course Overview:
The ABA STEM course is about bringing out the craftsman spirit which encompasses the characteristics of being “Careful, Patient, Attentive, Meticulous” to be “Explicit, Correct, Exact, Accurate”.
This programme is a 4-module curriculum that focuses on teaching the four disciplines: Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, and integrates them into one cohesive learning experience whilst working on real-world projects.
Our ABA STEM course Students will learn science and math related topics when they think outside the box to work on building functional watches, umbrellas, ear-buds, and at the final stage tablets for coding. The BEST part is that students will be able to keep most of the functional products that they build! Additionally, there are many other supplementary experiments that the students will conduct firsthand as they embark on journeys of scientific discovery!
Course Content:
The curriculum is divided into four modules with each focusing on different disciplines:
- Module 1: Umbrella & Art Academy
Experience the art of umbrella making with Umbrella Making & Art Design programme. This specialized course is designed to blend precision, creativity, and technical skills, allowing young learners to craft unique and functional umbrellas. Embracing the 'Craftsman Spirit,' students will engage in hands-on activities that foster critical thinking and innovation. This journey transforms simple materials into masterpieces, ensuring students excel in this valuable skill.
- Module 2: Watch-Maker 123
The Watchmaker programme offers young learners a deep dive into the intricate world of horology. This engaging, hands-on course captures the ‘Craftsman Spirit,’ encouraging creativity, critical thinking, and attention to detail. Participants will explore the essentials of watchmaking, from assembling intricate components to understanding the mechanics behind timepieces. This program is designed to instill precision and dedication, nurturing future innovators and creators.
Students will not only gain hands-on experience but also retain most of the products they build during this course. Moreover, supplementary experiments will provide additional opportunities for scientific exploration.
By the end of this course, students will experience improvements in cognitive capabilities and develop a passion for discovery through kinaesthetic-tactile learning methods. The teaching approach includes theory lessons supplemented by hands-on activities, video-based learning, interactive games along with open discussions and presentations by students.
