A Different Learning Experience
By Karina Salas
December 20, 2019
At San Roberto International School we promote our students’ learning through projects that require experimentation, analysis, innovation, curiosity, imagination, real-world problems solutions and other skills of the current era. We are privileged to work hand in hand with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) through Nord Anglia.
Our Middle School students participate in challenges proposed by MIT under the STEAM learning approach (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics). Students live this experience by testing their leadership, communication, collaboration, entrepreneurship, creativity and problem-solving skills.
​
Thanks to all subject teachers coaching, the teams directed their vision to fulfill their challenge. We offer them different workshops, advice sessions and workspaces that facilitate their planning and proposal development.
We invite specialist speakers in education, innovation, science and photography, and our students are encouraged to translate their ideas into actions that impact humanity and the world. We encourage them to undertake and find new or better ways of doing things; make use of resources in a responsible way and create or incorporate technology as a complement to their proposals and solutions.
Every year we are pleasantly surprised with the proposals and solutions presented by our students. We discover that we have promising scientists, inventors, engineers, artists and entrepreneurs who will surely continue inspiring others to create and contribute solutions to modern challenges.
We know that San Roberto will be very well represented at MIT with the team that participates in the STEAM Festival that will take place at the end of April 2020 along with the schools of Nord Anglia.
At San Roberto International School our students experience a different way of to learn!
