About Dreamkids Preschool
Think globally, Act locally."
The concept of "Glocal" in education bridges the gap between global and local contexts, intertwining with familiar notions like global citizenship education and sustainable development education.
Glocalized Learning, a cornerstone of our approach at Dreamkids, emphasizes the fusion of local and global perspectives when teaching concepts applicable across various scale levels, particularly in fields like sustainability and environmental science. By incorporating familiar examples, learning becomes more effective as children can readily relate to the content within their local context. The focus shifts towards uncovering connections between local issues and the global concepts explored in the classroom.
At Dreamkids, we empower children to apply sustainable development principles within their local communities practically. This approach increases the likelihood of meaningful actions, as children can swiftly comprehend concepts that are not only local but also culturally relevant.
We firmly believe that merely changing attitudes and values is insufficient. For education to be truly effective, we must demonstrate to children how they can act on these behaviours and eliminate any barriers to taking action. Personal factors and peer influence play significant roles, emphasizing the importance of showcasing peers, teachers, and school communities actively promoting and participating in similar actions. To achieve this, we follow a structured four-step approach:
-
Learning and understanding concepts through global themes and trends
-
Utilizing real-life contexts and experiences as examples
-
Taking meaningful action
-
Reflecting on the entire process
