What is GC for?
Global Campus’ mission is to provide our students with opportunities to globally connect and interact with their NAE peers and our collaborations. Students can connect in four main ways through GC:
Their community
Their world
Themselves
Global expertise
Activities will encourage students to learn about, with, and from their NAE peers across the world; reflect on their impact on our planet and other people; develop an understanding of who they are and how they fit into the world compared to others; and be exposed to worldclass expertise, includingMIT, UNICEF, and Juilliard. Our vision is that these global connections will enable our students to develop skills socially, emotionally, and academically.
Learning for the future
Global Campus is a personalised online learning platform
Only students from Nord Anglia have access to the platform
Our team of experts monitor all online activity
The platform caters to students of all ages, and includes projects for self-directed learning as well as activities which can be undertaken with the support of teachers and parents.
International Connections
Why, how, and when would our teachers use it?
GC doesn’t duplicate the curriculum by providing specific curriculum resources. Instead, it aims to enhance our curriculum by providing ways for students to connect. For example, if the teachers are doing an All About Me topic, they can join Pen Pals so that their students can explore the similarities and uniqueness with their NAE peers. If they’re doing TOK for the IBDP, they can get their students to join Debate Club to develop the students’ essay-writing skills through using clarity, persuasion, and argument, alongside hearing and responding to other viewpoints when debating with others, or get them to share their TOK essay idea on our Sharing Walls.
The teachers can also use some GC activities as a basis for clubs or after-school activities. Finally, GC competitions can either be used/run within specific departments (e.g. Performing Arts for the GC Reels competition) or can be whole-school events!
In our Global Campus series, we will share more information on the following topics over the next few months to help you better understand how our Global Campus supports your child's learning at Léman. These are also great opportunities for your child to connect through shared learning experiences on the Global Campus.
