- DESIGN THINKING
It is a process of Empathizing with someone or process and identifying the problem that can be defined by asking a set of questions for better understanding. Once the problem is well-understood students can develop problem-solving skills to come up with a variety of solutions. These solutions can be critically analyzed to zero down on some of the best possible solutions. These best options can be converted into prototype solutions. The end users can then give feedback after the deployment of prototype solutions as to how they feel it works better.

- HAPPINESS
“Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim, and end of human existence.” -Aristotle
Human beings aspire to be happy. With this purpose, every action of our life is aimed towards acquiring happiness. We experience happiness when we feel satisfied with the sense that one’s life is good, meaningful, and worthwhile.
In this increasingly competitive world, we need to prepare our children with core life abilities which are not only critical to their growth but also directly correlate to their success and happiness.
The prime objective of the Happiness module is to shed light on the true nature and dynamics of Happiness. The course is enriched with powerful guiding principles and universally applicable teachings from sacred texts to groom mindful, aware and awakened individuals who will be productively engaged with their network of family, friends, and workplaces.
