Our cuRRiculum
Aligned with African Reality
iNERDE has adapted the revolution around STEM education to fit a curriculum for an African context. The source materials are adjusted to present subjects and problems relevant in the students’ communities. Furthermore, the curriculum is tailored in consideration of the availability of materials, and integration with the existing curriculum of the students’ schools.
Meets Rigorous STEM Standards
iNERDE’s curriculum is composed of engaging and collaborative activities that drives home the importance, excitement, and applicability of STEAM education. A gamut of topics drawn from STEM fields is covered, as well as themes around careers, social responsibility, and learning skills such as writing and public speaking. Field trips and guest speakers allow the students to see how technology is used in their communities.
An Eclectic Approach to Teaching
iNERDE’s curriculum combines various approaches and methodologies to teach depending on the aims of the lesson and the abilities of the learners. Different teaching methods are borrowed and adapted to suit the requirement of the learners. This breaks the monotony of the class and gives our teachers more flexibility. This approach makes our classrooms’ atmosphere dynamic.
Practical & Adaptable
This activity-based, hands-on curriculum can be implemented in a variety of settings depending on the format of your program. The concepts are reinforced by hands-on activities that require problem understanding, conception and design of a solution, testing, and evaluation.
