Education is not the learning of facts,
but the training of the mind to think!!
NASCA – “STEAM Education Curriculum Integration Program”
Paving way for practical and activity-based learning, NASCA has been making every attempt to unleash a child’s imagination and contribute to his/her holistic development. Championing the concept of “Learning by Doing”, the group offers a comprehensive range of pedagogical approaches that integrate seamlessly with the school curriculum in the field of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math). Our program allows educators to integrate these core disciplines into one-comprehensive paradigm and teach these concepts using many practical and real-world applications. The core purpose of this initiative is to achieve an innovative problem-solving aptitude among students of today and makes complex subjects like Mathematics and Science relevant and engaging.
Additionally, the program helps instill a ‘maker’ spirit in school students, by providing opportunities for working in a Lab environment, using hands-on experimentation and collaboration with the latest technology. The program aims to bring the do-it-yourself culture to the forefront, encourage and motivate students to become solution providers and get engaged in self-learning that will not only lead to the development of higher order thinking skills, but may eventually lead to discoveries, innovations and inventions.
NASCA has established highly specialized STEAM labs across various schools Pan India which comprise of ‘State-of-the Art’ teaching tools / equipment and a world-class curriculum. The STEAM modules straddle various fields such as Robotics, Coding & Programing, Sensors & Actuators, Physics, Mechanics, Electronics, Mathematical Applications, Internet of Things (IOT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Design Thinking. These modules are taught by an expert team of Engineers and Educationists. NASCA STEAM curriculum comprises of more than 400 projects and these span across Kindergarten to Grade 12. Each grade / division goes through an intensive training schedule of 30 sessions of 1 hour each, spread across 30 weeks. Towards the end of the year, students are assessed on their proficiency on key parameters such as ‘Concept’, ‘Application’, ‘Structure’, Development’, ‘Skills’ and ‘Project Presentation’. On successful completion, the students are awarded a level-based certification on “STEAM Education Curriculum Integration Program”.
We are driven by a strong mission to make school education more holistic, impactful and result oriented, while equipping our children with the knowledge and skills required to brace the arising new market realities and opportunities.
