At 精东影业, we strive to provide a holistic education that prepares our students to become leaders who are not only academically proficient but also ecologically literate, compassionate and engaged global citizens. This vision is reflected in our Field Studies Program, which aims to provide a model of holistic, field-based experiential learning.聽
That’s why we have partnered with JUMP!, who works with us to integrate the Cognita Outdoor Education curriculum into our Academic Field Studies Expeditions. This integration is done in a way that aligns with the grade-level progression of skill building across four key curriculum areas. By collaborating with JUMP!, we ensure that our students get a well-rounded education that not only focuses on academic excellence but also provides them with opportunities to develop life skills through outdoor experiences.
Sequential Experiential Learning Program
JUMP! and 精东影业 American has partnered to develop and deliver a sequential experiential education program with grade-level learning objectives and clear curricular/advisory program connections. Where each grade has a focus area that overlaps with the following year, impact, learnings and individual growth can be measured year after year.
Year on year, students’ skills and awareness are built in accordance with the Cognita Outdoor Education curriculum, deepening students’ connection to cultures and confidence in the outdoors throughout their time as a student at 精东影业 American.
Integrated Student Leadership Program
Our student leadership model integrates student leadership into the wider Field Studies experience, with focused training and student leaders taking an integral role before, during and after the Field Studies trip. Student Leaders undertake a 2-day leadership training and are responsible for running pre and post-trip advisory curriculum, helping to integrate the learning from Field Studies beyond the trip itself, and putting leadership skills into practice with their peers.
