Excel Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ECTS)
Introduction
The Excel Centre for Theoretical Sciences (ECTS) is a multidisciplinary initiative designed to foster a deep understanding of scientific principles and theoretical thinking in students. The programme aims to go beyond mere knowledge transmission, emphasizing the development of higher-order skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and the ability to draw connections between diverse concepts. Through active learning strategies like discussions, case analysis, and presentations, students are encouraged to not only absorb knowledge but also contribute as co-teachers in the learning process. The programme’s activities span a wide range of disciplines, stimulating research, collaborations and encouraging students to engage in innovative thinking at the frontiers of science. Students of Grades 8 to 10 are allowed to opt for these classes, twice a week, one and a half hours each.
Goals
The specific goals of the ECTS programme are:
-
Promote Theoretical Understanding: To enable students to develop a strong theoretical foundation that allows them to understand and explain scientific phenomena, while also fostering their ability to predict and identify patterns.Encourage Active Learning: To create an active learning environment where students participate in hands-on activities that bridge the gap between theory and practice.Develop Critical Thinking: To cultivate students' analytical skills through higher-order thinking tasks like evaluation, synthesis, and the ability to see relationships between seemingly unrelated concepts.Facilitate Collaborative Learning: To foster a learning atmosphere where students, along with teachers, engage in shared inquiry, contributing to the knowledge-building process.Interdisciplinary Growth: To promote the integration of knowledge across various scientific disciplines, encouraging multidisciplinary research and innovative thinking.
