Technology and International Exchange at Redbricks School

An interaction was arranged for the middle school students of Redbricks with the students of Y. E Smith Elementary School , Durham . U. S. A . The cross - culture exchange programme  took place  at Duke Corporate Education office in Ahmedabad. 

The students came together to share some interesting facts about the “culture of Gujarat” , “Ahmedabad as a clean and green city” and “A Day at Redbricks School”. They spoke about the beauty of Taj Mahal and the history behind it . The students of Durham were inquisitive to know more about the significance of Navaratri . Apart of this they also discussed about the House system, School council, subjects, languages, Festivals, Games included in the school In India and U.S.

Favorite pets, class recess and family life were popular topics in addition to the presentation about North Carolina developed by the eight student participants from Victoria Robinson’s  AIG student group at YE Smith. The student delegation showed how things looked on their side of the planet during a presentation entitled,  “A Day in the Life of Redbricks School Kids.” One student shared his favorite recipe for celery and peanuts. The Durham students learned that Redbricks students study Spanish in addition to English. They learned that elephants are held sacred by many and also used as a means of transport.  Rotarian organizers tutored the students in the international  organization’s “4-Way Test,” held at Durham  which was featured in a popular Newspaper  “ The Herald Sun “ in U.S.”.  Letisha Judd, Principal of Y.E. Smith, described the  project as “a  great experience  for   kids at Y.E. Smith”  .Ms. Sutapa Mishra, Principal at  Redbricks,  added  that , “Video  conferencing is improving education now and holds even  more promise for the  future”. It was indeed an enriching experience for the learners from both the ends. 

This could happen because of the advancement in Science & Technology.  Children got exposure to know more about the other countries, their culture and values sitting in India through the interaction by using Technology. Such interactions also help Teachers to bring Internationalism in the School Curriculum, which makes the Curriculum more interesting for the Children.

It was indeed a proud moment on 4th December 2014 when the name of Redbricks School was announced at a conference hall at Kempenski Ambiance at Delhi to confer the prestigious ISA - International School Award by British Council.  It was a Dream come True. 

ISA Award - International School Award

ISA Award by British Council

The School Principal Ms. Sutapa Mishra and the ISA Coordinator Ms. Padma Kumar were present at the venue to receive the biggest reward of ISA in the form of a beautiful trophy for the school which showed the ethos of multiculturalism and the international dimension which the school has lived for the past one Year. It was indeed a fruit of students and the facilitators contribution who looked beyond the curriculum  with enthusiasm and extraordinary abilities to put each plan into action to collaborate an incredible journey of ISA. For students it was an amazing experience to interact with the counterparts with confidence as they shared a collaborative  work wherein for the facilitators  it enhanced their teaching methodology and was a platform to identify their own creativity and talent as they  together experienced reflective brainstorming sessions.  The relentless effort of the ISA Coordinator Ms. Padma Kumar ,Committee member Ms. Juhi Mishra , Graphic designer Mr . Tushaar Affuwale coupled with the indomitable spirit of the facilitators Ms. Meghna Chawla, Ms. Khyati Acharya, Ms. Amrita Khetan, Ms. Toral Rawal ,Ms. Neelima Sharma, Ms. Aditi Pasaya and Mr. Praveen Upadhyay to implement each  action plan  systematically was a moral boost for weaving the dossier. Interaction with the counterparts had brought a true flavor of internationalism in terms of exchange of ideas regarding food, festivals, currencies and traditions which encouraged the students for exploratory learning. Thanks to British Council for giving us this opportunity to  establish the international dimension across the globe and a special thanks to  the Project Manager Ms. Ivy Cabryl and the Brand Ambassador  of West Zone Ms. Renu Seth for being our mentor and Guide.

Needless to say that the motivation and the passionate belief  in empowerment through education of our Founder Ms. Renita Handa had come true in the form of the Coveted ISA Award which had opened new vistas for the students and broadened their horizon.
