Planned by CMS 2018 Fellows in collaboration with Vision Dolpo staff

We plan to integrate ECA activities with the curriculum. The teaching method will be completely radical; however, theory parts and the curriculum of Nepal government will be covered holistically. We plan to provide the student with psychosomatic experience of learning. We will also be focusing on building interpersonal communication skills (English and Nepali) among the students. And to achieve our objectives we will be involving the students in :

• Designing and conducting various DIY projects
• Music Classes
• Theatrical Performances
• Experimenting with non musical instruments in creating music
• Ensemble Classes
• Science experiments
• Using E-paath designed by OLE Nepal for learning and teaching
• Using Raspberry Pi
