The Research & Referral module is an initiative begun with the aim of teaching our grade 4 & 5 students to conduct project research at a level required in higher classes. Through books, monitored use of the Internet, workshops on concepts such as ‘mind mapping’, and through discussion, they learn to conduct background research, make observations and estimations, organise their thoughts and then present their projects in ways that are creative, intelligent and interesting.
The teacher student ratio, for R & R, is 1:10, ensuring that every child is given individualised attention and the outcome in the form of a project report or a model etc is unique in its conception and creation, carrying the individual imprint of each child.
