The emerging trends of contemporary global world have uncorked the enormous potentials of modern schooling in remodeling the socialization process with the progressive outlook. The ‘change oriented vision’ of school and its implimentational strategies can yield positive results only when classrooms provide a humane ecosystem for the organic blend of prudential capabilities and emotional skills. This proposal aims atexploring the creative possibilities of evolving a sensitive, complacent and sociable school campus that consciously nurtures and works to achieve the emotional stability and ethical solidarity.The refined and well focused non-materialistic culture channelized through an innovative curriculum in schools can undoubtedly produce impassioned global citizens who can qualitatively contribute towardsresolving the heated conflicts of present day world. The vital strength of school communities in spreading social awarenesscan be effectively utilized if schools develop a unique mind, heart and body to drive their campaign of social change.
Fabricating a bond of most trustworthy and congenial relationship between students and teachers should be a prime concern in the school campus. Recognizing the socio-cultural uniqueness of learners can extensively help in eliminating the widespread behavioral disorders and maladjustments in the school campus. Informally designed Interactive classrooms can make studentsfeel the liberty & flexibility of knowledge transaction &expression. Modern Schooling should provide productive scope for off campus activities where students find unrestrained, pressure free space to shoulder the responsibilitiesand prove the accountability of their leadership skills. The learning outcomes certainly reflect the formation of an unprejudiced mindset and tolerant group behavior.
Nurturing the skills of charity and social service through ‘community outreach programmes’ can significantly contribute in mouldingyoung minds as it exposes them to the ground realities of society and ignites the sense of social responsibility. Students who explore and experience the practicability and adoptability of bookish values during their visit to orphanages,oldage homes and home for mentally retarded people definitely spread the waves of positive thoughts.
Students must also be trained to grow with sensitivity towards nature so that they respond consciously to the global environmental issues. Growing plants and vegetables in school gardens, practicing organic farming, installing rainwater harvesting system, campaigning for the cause ofafforestation,plastic free society and energy conservation can tune the young generation to harmonize with eco friendly ideaswhich make them feel responsible stakeholders of sustainable development at global context.
Serious efforts must be done to culminate the humane and progressive values of family & community life in to the routines and lives of students. Observing ‘mother’s day’, father’sday, ‘Grandparents day’,and ‘cultural fests’ in schoolswith utmost fervency and passion can stimulate them to fight the insensitive world around. Creating regular platforms for interaction with community resource people, inspires them to value the informal sources of gaining knowledge and also the worth of various life skills.
The essence of school culture should make its mark with the flavor of liberal humane values and produce socially responsible and morally upright citizens to make the world a better place.
