Arwachin International School(AIS), Dilshad Garden, Delhi: Photos

Living up to its declared goal of achieving global standards, Arwachin International School launched Smart Classes in collaboration with Educomp- an Edeucational content development company- in the month of November. Prior to it serious preparation and demonstration had taken place . Due diligence had been done by the Director, the Principal and the teacher. After finding good merit in the system, the staff gave the project a go-ahead. A rigorous training for the teachers was organized and was attended with full zeal by the teachers after the school hours. We are proud to announce that every class room is now equipped with a Smart Interactive Board, an Overhead Projector and a stylus- an electronic pen that works with the help of ultra violet rays. The Smart Class consists of forty five thousand modules on various subjects. The system makes learning a real-life experience so that it lasts in the memory of students. It simulates a virtual laboratory for students to carry out experiments without actually touching any substance at all. It makes learning fun so that students don’t find studies something to look forward to.

Arwachin International School, since the commencement, has always paid premium to innovation and technology. Our school boasts of a highly equipped and well-stocked biology laboratory. The idea is to enable hands on learning by the students, “Learning by doing” being the motto of our bio lab. The laboratory provides the students with all sorts of facilities, ranging from specimens to innovative smart boards. The laboratory is quite spacious and is creatively decorated by the students. We have permanent anatomical slides of plants. The lab consists of simple and compound microscopes for the students to focus and study slides. The ratio of these microscopes per student is fairly high. We have measuring devices, like analytical balance. Also the laboratory has a variety of apparatus for physiological and ecological experiments, like water bath, oven and Digital PH Meter. We have fire extinguishers in case of an emergency. The laboratory is well supplied with chemicals, and equipped abundantly with thermometers and other apparatus for students to carry out their experiments. Through experiments, students are able to gain firsthand knowledge and appreciate various concepts of biology.

Our chemistry lab is well equipped with chemicals and other apparatus to cater to the needs of all the students up to class 12. Students start using the chemistry lab from class 6 onwards. They show great enthusiasm in using chemicals and perform hands on experiments. An additional advantage of our lab is an Educomp smart board with real and animated versions of different experiments. It is also supported by a virtual lab which is used to conduct experiments on the board and observe the reactions. The virtual lab also provides animations of chemical reactions at the molecular level. The lab has an excellent safety system with fire extinguishers and a shower cum eye washer equipment.

Our state-of-the-art Physics laboratory is equipped with modern equipments to help the students learn the concepts of Physics with experiments. It is designed to give practice of taking measurements, analyzing data and drawing inferences while the students experiment. The lab is quite spacious and very well ventilated to ensure proper availability of light in it. Each of the laboratories can accommodate 32 students conducting experiments in groups of two depending on the experiment at hand. Our students get a virtual experience of experiments on the Educomp smart board and the crocodile physics which they thoroughly enjoy. Although the front of the room is fitted with blackboards and Educomp Smart board and a large demonstration table, the students spend most of their time at their lab tables performing their own experiments. There’s a computer in the lab for the students to reach for data collection and analysis. There is ample space in the middle of the room for large scale experiments. The lab is very well equipped with instruments, like- meter bridges, battery eliminators, potentiometers, Hooke’s apparatus, etc. One can also observe the resonance condition that so often proves attractive and interactive. The pin-boards on each wall are decorated with very suitable charts, maps, illustrations and quotes and at the same time various models, made by the students, are exhibited all around the lab. One just cannot resist loving both the lab and the subject as the aura of Physics seems to besiege the invader.

In the modern era computer has become an integral part of human life. Techniques of using the computer are of utmost importance. A well-equipped computer lab is the nerve centre of computer education in the school to keep pace with the fast changing IT scenario. There are two Computer Laboratories in the school with advanced infrastructure in terms of hardware and software to cater to the requirements of the students, teachers and the curriculum. They are exclusive and equipped with computers and accessories in tune with the latest technologies where computer education is provided to all the students. They receive computer training from the well qualified teachers. A large number of systems provide practical training of the programming to the students which enable them to clear their concepts easily and become confident in their real life applications. This lab is well equipped with the latest computer systems for the students to discuss each and every aspect of basic computer system. It is used extensively by the students for learning of Foundation of Information Technology, MS-WORD, MS-EXCEL, MS-POWER POINT and MS-ACCESS. It is also used for learning programming in C++, Net Beans and Oracle database programming in classes XI and XII.
