Under the project is called “Out of Syllabus”. Jargon Free Forum (JFF) aims to work for the improvement of the learning process, critical thinking, as well as development of creative educational techniques, for the students of 9th and 11th standards. Government schools provide education to the majority of children in our country and are under constant pressure to maintain the quality of education and overall development of the children. This project supplements the teachers’ efforts in government schools through documentary videos, educational games, practical demonstrations and knowledge, capacity-building trainings, career guidance, stress counselling and various other means. It aims to enhance the current educational process by means of various activities that are simple and easy to interact with children.

• Think about and evaluate their own thinking and behavior on issues related to health education, physical education, and home economics
• Make reasonable and defensible decisions about issues related to individual and community well-being
• Challenge and take action (individually and collectively) to address social, cultural, economic, and political inequalities
• Understand the role and significance of the movement culture and its influence on our daily lives and the lives of people in our community

• Help them form and test theories, experiment and try to understand how the world works.
• Encourage children to explore, ask questions, test their theories, think critically about results and think about changes they could make or things they could do differently.
• Help children think more deeply about things by instilling a love for learning and a desire to understand how things work. Seek out the answers to all of your children’s “why” questions using books, the internet, friends, family or other experts.
• We are often given lots of information at a time, and it is important we evaluate that information to determine if it is true, important and whether or not we should believe it.
• Help children learn these skills by teaching them to evaluate new information. Have them think about where or who the information is coming from, how it relates to what they already know and why it is or is not important.
• When children are deeply vested in a topic or pursuit, they are more engaged and willing to experiment. The process of expanding their knowledge brings about a lot of opportunities for critical thinking, so to encourage this action helps your child invest in their interests. Whether it is learning about trucks and vehicles or a keen interest in insects, help your child follow their passion.
