โHigh School Showcase | Term 1 | School of Humanity ๐ ๐ช
โIt is time to celebrate the first term of a new academic year! Join us for an awe-inspiring Global Showcase, where our high schoolers will be sharing their projects that make a positive impact on the world.
โThroughout this term, our learners have been designing solutions which contribute to human progress, while developing new skills and mindsets. They have also been participating in micro-internships with real-world organizations.
โ๐ Our learners have been learning through challenges...
โThis term, our learners have been tackling the following challenges:
โ๐ย Future of the Internet: Media & Democracy
โAs the internet and media continue to evolve into public online spaces, how will the humanity, society and democracy continue to adapt?
โIn this challenge, learners have tackled the future of the internet from multiple disciplines. They have explored questions about what history teaches us about the role of media on society and analyzed how writers and artists respond to issues such as mass surveillance and privacy. They have explored how the internet impacts different political systems around the world, as well as reflected on its impact on their own lives.
โ๐ง Understanding Minds
โHow do our minds, brains, and consciousness work? How can psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy help understand and explain human behavior?
โThis challenge aims to foster a comprehensive exploration of human behavior by merging insights from psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy. Learners have delved into questions that have puzzled scholars for centuries: how do our minds and brains function? What is the nature of consciousness? How do these elements combine to shape human behavior?
โ๐ฑ Building Sustainable Futures (Advanced)
โHow can we create an exciting and sustainable future for humanity, that is aligned with the sustainable development goals and the flourishing of both people and the planet?
โThe world faces numerous interconnected challenges that threaten the wellbeing of both people and the planet. These challenges range from climate change and environmental degradation to social inequality and economic instability. This challenge invites learners to think creatively and develop solutions which align with the SDGs and promote the flourishing of humanity and the environment.
โ๐ A focus on Pathway Advisory
โThis term's showcase will also spotlight our Pathway Advisory curriculum, which is designed to equip learners with personalized preparation for life beyond high school.
