Pearson mypedia
Today’s learners are growing up in a world which is increasingly becoming complex. Developing higher order cognitive skills that will enable them to deal with these challenges will be most critical. Given this context, we firmly believe that the Pearson MyPedia programme is the need of the hour for any classroom.
Every child learns differently and every teacher teaches differently. However, learning outcomes in a class cannot be left to change. Accordingly, Gemford follows fully integrated Pearson MyPedia program that brings to every classroom a process of teaching that encapsulates the good teaching practices of good teachers to facilitate effective and measurable learning. It ensures measurable improvement in cognitive skills of the learner and enables students to develop a meaningful understanding of complex associations and influences within a topic.
MyPedia’s specially crafted course books uses an interdisciplinary learning approach and a robust pedagogy designed to build life-long skills. The worksheets are designed for multiple difficulty levels to nurture critical and creative thinking skills of the learner. Each of these workbooks comes with a rating scale that helps to record overall performance of the learner.
