AIME MentorClass
AIME MentorClass is a special program designed to help students unlock their potential with the support of mentors, following a set of agreed rules to create a positive and imaginative learning environment. For example, students and mentors work together to build their Imagination Classroom while respecting each other and the program's guidelines.
Collaborate
To collaborate means to work together with others to achieve a common goal. In the Imagination Classroom lesson, students are asked to collaborate by sharing ideas and working as a team to design and build their ideal classroom.
Imagination
Imagination is the ability to create new ideas or pictures in your mind that are not real – yet. For example, when you close your eyes and dream up a classroom filled with bright colours, books, and musical instruments, you are using your imagination.
Learning environment
A learning environment is the space where students learn together. It includes the classroom, the people in it, the materials used, and the way everyone treats each other. In this lesson, students are creating a positive learning environment by designing their own Imagination Classroom.
Rules
Rules are guidelines that everyone agrees to follow so that everyone feels safe, respected, and able to learn. For instance, in the AIME MentorClass, there are rules to ensure students listen to each other, are kind, and use their creativity in a safe way.
