Explaining the Learning Outcomes in greater detail

Become more aware of your own strengths and areas for growth.

You will know what you are good at and what you need to improve. By doing this type of activity, you will gain more understanding of the skills and abilities you have, and ones you need to work on.

Everyone has different abilities. Here is an opportunity to understand your own and where you need to push yourself to get better.

Undertake challenges that develop new skills.

You try something that is new, and learn new skills/abilities. By doing this type of SA activity, you will challenge yourself by doing something that you have never done before.

Trying new things can push us out of our comfort zone, and we will learn more skills/abilities.

Discuss, evaluate and plan activities.

Start a project, plan it, develop it and problem solve when things go wrong. By doing this type of activity, you will be pushed to become a leader.

This can be a collaborative project with others as well.

Persevere in action.

Doing an activity for a long period of time, and not giving up if something is difficult. By doing this type of activity, you will attend regularly and share the responsibility of solving problems.

This activity should have a significant time commitment.

Work collaboratively with others.

Doing an activity where you have to work with other people. By doing this type of activity, you will have to share roles and responsibilities with students or others.

Learning to collaborate effectively is a valuable skill. More minds are better than one.

Develop international mindedness through global engagement, multilingualism and intercultural understanding.

Doing an activity where you learn about global issues, different languages or cultures. By doing this type of activity, you will learn about and engage with the world around you.

This can be linked to the ‘Global Goals for sustainable development’ that you see around The FIS. GlobalGoals

Consider the ethical implications of your actions.

This is where you need to show an understanding between right and wrong. This could be you reflecting on the types of decisions you made during an activity, or being engaged in an activity that positively affects others.

Our choices impact others. Becoming aware of our decisions and the impact they have on others is an important and difficult task.
