Methodological Description

How can the learning process be transformed into a journey that develops the student’s cognitive skills?

The demands and guiding questions lead us toward research and then strategy development, since it is not enough simply to present accessible content. Information today is easily available to students through the internet or books. The essential task is to teach students how to learn, apply, and critically evaluate that information.

Teachers must organize learning with methods that make the student an active participant in the process. New material should be learned not through direct instruction, but through the teacher’s guidance.

Research results lead us to an important conclusion: if we want to develop cognitive abilities—perception, reasoning, and memory—students must be given the opportunity to process information through their own subjective perspective and transform it into knowledge.

Our lessons are built on the principle of developing cognitive abilities and are structured in three stages:

• The student perceives and receives new material.
• The student applies what they have learned / reflects on it.
• The student transforms the new material into knowledge, embedding it into long-term memory.

Materials Students Will Need:

• Dictionary
• Workbook
• Pen
• Pencils

Each program lesson includes:

• Lesson material (slideshow)
• Written teaching guide (for the teacher)
• Video teaching guide (for the teacher)
• Practical activities for students
• Homework for students
