our past learning journeys
VOCATIONAL LEARNING JOURNEY, 2021
Year 3 students of APSN Delta Senior School toured around Singapore visiting various locations relating to their own vocational courses as well as cross learn about their peers’ vocations.
They visited Bettr Barista where they learnt different coffee brewing methods and tried their hands at making latte art. They also traveled around Changi Airport and Jewel Changi, our nation’s pride and joy where the students learnt about the history and design features of our airport.
Away from the hustle of the city, students visited Bollywood Adventures where they potted their own plants and went on a farm tour to discover locally grown plants and their uses. We ended off the learning journey with a bang at Pan Pacific Hotel who hosted us for an amazing lunch and brought us around on an exclusive back end tour!
Rethinking service, 2019
Students from Evergreen Secondary School’s Interact Club embarked on two learning journeys to explore and gain a better understanding on the topics of integration and inequality in Singapore, in order to be better equipped to run their very own community projects. Before embarking on the learning journeys, students spent one afternoon learning about their own assets and understanding the social identities of their peers in school, to better inform and contextualise their learning during their journeys.
SMU Pathfinders Programme, 2018 & 2019
In 2018, undergraduate students from the SMU Pathfinders Programme embarked on a Community Trail learning journey in order to gain exposure to some of the most pressing issues faced by communities on the ground in the Bras Basah / Jalan Besar area. They interacted with organisations like Action for AIDS, HealthServe, and ZeroWasteSG, and learned about the complexities, challenges, and successes faced by these community experts.
Throughout 2018 and 2019, the students also took part in a series of equipping workshops to develop their fluency in fundamental community development skills like Design Thinking for Social Impact, Asset-based Community Development, and Logic Model. Insights gained from these workshops fed into the students’ process of refining their own ongoing community service projects.
