Innovative approaches that prepare students for the future
At AWS, our teaching methodologies are grounded in research and designed for impact. We blend proven pedagogical approaches with innovative practices to create engaging, meaningful learning experiences that develop deep understanding and transferable skills.
Our teachers are trained in multiple instructional approaches and select the most effective methods for each learning objective, ensuring students develop as critical thinkers, collaborators, and lifelong learners.
Evidence-based methodologies that drive student success
Students tackle real-world challenges through extended, interdisciplinary projects that develop research, collaboration, and presentation skills.
A human-centred problem-solving framework that teaches students to empathise, define, ideate, prototype, and test solutions.
Students progress when they demonstrate understanding, not just when the calendar changes, ensuring deep and lasting comprehension.
Guided questioning and dialogue that develops analytical thinking, intellectual curiosity, and the ability to construct and defend arguments.
Hands-on activities, field experiences, and simulations that connect classroom concepts to real-world applications.
Strategic integration of technology with face-to-face instruction, giving students flexibility and access to diverse resources.
Teachers select methods based on learning objectives, student needs, and subject matter. Most lessons blend multiple approaches for maximum engagement and understanding.
Technology is a tool, not a replacement for teaching. We use digital resources to enhance learning, enable collaboration, and provide personalised practice, while maintaining a balance with hands-on and interpersonal activities.
