Competitions - The Creya Ignited Minds ChallengeWas project manager for a nation wide, inter-school competition where student teams had to come up with engineering/digital media and IoT solutions for real life issues. Wrote the challenge statement and created the design thinking framework for students to design and build their prototypes. Designed internal and external judging criteria and created rubrics to assess student performance vis-a-vis their 21st century skills. Worked with schools to approve design briefs and finalize teams. Mentored all the finalists teams and aided them in creating their prototypes as successful solutions.

Creya XEL ProgramConducted research and created end to end STE(A)M based curriculum for grades 1 to 10 in the following streams. This curriculum is currently being implemented for over 50000 students over schools distributed all over India and the Middle East. The curriculum is aligned to the national curriculum framework of the respective grades and includes the following streams and manipulatives:Engineering:Bricks for early learners to teach architecture, vocabulary and other environmental science concepts such as natural and human-made, environmental recycling, animals and habitats, types of living organism etc.Fischertechnik for middle and higher grades to teach statics, mechanics and robotic mechanisms.Robotics:CubeletsTM and RoamerTM to teach basic robotic concepts to early learnersFischertechnik components to teach robotic body, movement and end effector mechanisms.PCS Brain to teach basic and intermediate coding for robotic movements and sensory motor feedback mechanisms.Digital Media:Digital Cameras/Tablets and GIMP/PicsArt to teach photography and image editing.Digital Cameras/Tablets and MovieMaker/PowerDirector to teach video shooting and editingAudio Recorders/Tablets and Audacity to teach audio recording and editing.Digital Cameras/Tablets and Stop Motion Studio to teach Stop Motion AnimationCoding:MSWLogo and Algoid to teach basic coding to early learnersAlgoid and C/C++ to teach intermediate coding to middle and higher gradesHTML and CSS to teach basic web designICT:MS Word/Open Office Writer to teach word processingExcel/Open Office Calc to teach spreadsheetsPowerPoint/Open Office Impress to teach presentation softwareCurriculum Characteristics: Philosophy: Aligned to Kolb's Cycle of Learning, Marzano's Taxonomy of Learning and Social Emotion Learning.Design Thinking: The iterative process of Empathizing, Defining, Ideating, Protyping, Evaluating and Reflection is incorporated into each module.

Assessments:Created a comprehensive assessment framework for assessing 21st Century Skills that include- Critical Thinking and Problem Solving- Creative Thinking- Communication- Collaboration- Information Fluency- Digital LiteracyCreated a comprehensive rubric system including multiple criteria or dimensions for each skill, descriptors for each dimension and a rating or scaling system with definitions for each level.Lesson Plans:Created comprehensive lesson plans for each curriculum session. Each lesson plan includes multi-media teacher and student resources and a minute to minute plan for the teacher to use if necessary.After School Programs:Created curriculum, lesson plans and classroom collateral for various after school programs and camps including:- Carnivalist - Engineering Carnival Rides- Survivalist - Learning Navigation and other survival skills in the wild- Transformator - Building Extreme Machines using engineering principles- Stop Motion AnimationInternational Baccalaureate (IB) CollaborationCollaborated with IB schools in conceptualizing and developing curriculum for the IB PYP program. Topics included- Ancient Civilizations- Cultures around the world- Conflict resolution etc.Competitions - The Creya Ignited Minds ChallengeCollaborated in the conception of an inter-school competition that involved teams of students coming up with engineering and digital media solutions to real life challenges.
