Art Teacher - Thane, India - The Polymath School
Description
EXPERIENTIAL ART EDUCATOR
(A Great Opportunity to Learn & Teach Project-Based-Learning)
About Us
(Start with this Presentation to get a comprehensive overview of our School)
The Polymath School is Mumbai's first K-12 Project-Based-Learning (PBL) School.
In projects that typically last 3-4 months, we integrate rich content, 21st-century skills and human values in the context of a real-life problem or a challenge.
(Examples - Organic Farming Project, "Building a Frog Habitat").
Even though we are a school, we try to maintain a start-up culture.
The reason for that is simple - if we want our students to develop life-skills like critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, etc., we, the facilitators (educators), need to live it ourselves.

A Thriving Art Scene
In our country, the "arts" are considered more a hobby than a true "academic" pursuit. But by keeping the arts on the fringes, we are doing a disservice to our students. Arts can inculcate tremendous passion, commitment and discipline in a child. An appreciation of arts makes her more reflective and open to others' points-of-view. In our school we would like to encourage a very lively arts scene
