The Tree Group’s “Active Learning Center” just began our annual Summer Intensive Program. In the Summer Intensive Program, there is a special addition that the regular semester curriculum does not have – group classes. In a group of 2 or 3, students are encouraged to acquire knowledge in an enjoyable manner and participate actively in learning through creative and collaborative activities. Let me introduce our five distinctive group classes!

Building Ecosphere (ECS) Class  

 

ECS Teacher: Seungmin Lee, B.A.

 

This class allows the student to think and discuss about Ecosphere from various perspectives, with the following question: what does it take for an individual to live and survive?   

 

ECS Class will help the student to: 

  

– Encourage creativity by approaching the current environmental issues in a friendlier way that involves hands-on activities. 

 

– Enhance critical thinking skills that will allow the student to eventually gather, organize, and present his/her thoughts based on 1) factual evidence from text and 2) personal experience.

Moreover, the Tree Group recognizes the gravity of COVID-19 and is doing its best to continue the Summer Intensive Program in a virus-free environment. Every visitor and staff must wear a mask at all times and fill out the Daily Health Checklist before entering the clinic. The Tree Group is also disinfecting the place frequently. The Tree Group humbly asks for everyone’s cooperation and will do its best to continue with the classes in a healthy environment.
