BLOG NO*170 Future focused learning – are the buzz words, an innovative idea, or a new pedagogy which will enable our students to become information literate adults in an ever changing world?
Every two days now we create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2022. That is something like five exabytes of data. User-generated data and social media are a huge part of this created information.
How do we empower our students to effectively use and interpret this data?
As teacher, librarians, we need to facilitate a learning environment which enables our students to understand and utilize this information.
To succeed in the future, our students will require research, problem-solving and critical thinking skills. They will need to be able to work independently and together with groups of other students.
We know that students need to be engaged with relevant, meaningful and exciting learning. It is at our Hasti school that we must provide our students with the skills and knowledge required for the suggested different careers. And therefore at our Hasti School we have structural learning that is learning of important skill every year right from preprimary to XII
With the Future focused learning we at our Hasti school are empowering students to take ownership of their learning by providing an environment which is flexible, innovative and challenging and which will foster students who are capable of making formative decisions based on accessing the facts.
Our school is driven by seven key concepts which give the inquiries direction and meaning this is followed right from Preprimary level

Form:- The understanding that everything has a form with recognizable features that can be observed, identified, described and categorized.
Function -The understanding that everything has a purpose, a role or a way of behaving that can be investigated.
Causation – The understanding that things do not just happen, that there are causal relationships at work, and that actions have consequences.
Change – The understanding that change is the process of movement from one state to another. It is universal and inevitable.
Connection -The understanding that we live in a world of interacting systems in which the actions of any individual element affect others.
Perspective -The understanding that knowledge is moderated by perspectives; different perspectives lead to different interpretations, understandings and findings; perspectives may be individual, group, cultural or disciplinary.
Responsibility -the understanding that people make choices based on their understanding, and the actions they take as a result do make a difference.
We focus on 2-3 key concepts within each unit, and emphasize on the depth of learning, rather than the breadth at this stage.
These key concepts integrate smoothly with our transdisciplinary teaching, allowing the children to learn across disciplines, seamlessly carrying the big idea into each subject area. The key concepts are constantly revisited as children’s understanding develops and deepens as they progress
