Conceptual Learning Workshop
Conceptual Learning Workshop
The faculty of Modern High School International (MHSI) participated in a half-day professional development workshop on Conceptual Learning, conducted by Mr. Pradipta Hore, Program Director, Aditya Birla Education Academy, on 18 September 2026.
The interactive workshop encouraged teachers to look beyond content and explore how learning can be organised around concepts and conceptual relationships. Through collaborative activities and discussions, teachers examined the distinction between essential facts, essential skills and concepts, and explored how these elements can come together to create deeper and more transferable learning experiences.
Faculty members worked in groups to identify concepts within different subject areas and formulate conceptual relationships and generalisations. The activities demonstrated how classroom learning can move from acquiring subject-specific knowledge and skills to developing broader understandings that students can apply across contexts.
The session provided teachers with an opportunity to reflect on their existing classroom practices and consider ways of making learning more inquiry-driven, meaningful and conceptually connected.
The workshop was an engaging professional learning experience, reinforcing the importance of enabling students not only to know and do, but also to understand, connect and transfer their learning.
