What is AMS?
After My School is a new age Education Company , founded and run by alumni of Indian Institute of management who, collectively, have more than 100 years of experience. Using their collective experience and thorough research in learning methodologies , they have developed proprietary tools and processes which help a child realize their full academic potential. The unique process of AfterMySchool assesses gaps in the conceptual clarity of a child, and then draws up a time bound action plan for bridging those gaps. The unique technique is called “Filling The Blanks” technique.
How The AMS System works
The AMS learning system is based on the principles of Bloom’s taxonomy (see the diagram). With our system, your child gets expert guidance by the tutor. This guidance not only helps him to gain knowledge (level 1) but to also understand the concepts (level 2). In most of the cases, the child starts to apply the learned concepts to specific subjects as well (level 3).
Our system focuses on achieving the Educational Outcomes as defined by the Secondary Education Boards in India. While the regular schools also strive hard to achieve the same, it needs to be hardly emphasized that a child needs to ‘complement’ what he studies in school. We complement it by regular ‘After School Work (ASK)’.
Our AMS system ensures that the same is done in a structured and regular manner. The system works in sync with the classes in your child’s school, and keeps your child up-to-date in the concepts learned in school by regular day-to-day revision and completion of homework.
Filling the Blanks
- A child has to complete a set of Concept Evaluation Tests (CET) up on joining AMS. The tests check the conceptual clarity up to the previous class and generate a comprehensive report to pinpoint the concept-wise gaps, which need to be addressed.
- The AMS tutor, based on the above report, makes a year-long development plan, or Student Academic Plan (SAP), for the child to ‘fill the gaps’. The same plan is implemented along with the regular day-to-day revision and homework. Live interactive sessions, videos and specialized assignments are used for the same. The parents receive regular feedback- at least once a month- on the progress made.
- Regular day-to-day revision, of the lessons completed in school, is done using our proven methodology of APPR – Assess, Prepare, Practice and Re-assess (see the diagram).
- Our Chapter-Wise Tests (CWT) and assessments help the tutor in tracking comprehension of the child in each chapter, as they are completed in school, and fill the gaps- if any- by focused tutoring.
- ASK Diary and Google Classroom, are tools which are integral to the ASK class, they track the day-to-day revision, homework and also help parents track the completion of after school work on a daily basis.
