with the World Phenomena?

World Phenomena were created by top educators with years of experience. Therefore, they are designed to be immediately and easily applicable to everyday teaching.

World Phenomena’s main advantage is its flexible inclusion in school education. Every teacher can teach the best way for him/her and the pupils.

Check out how it looks in practice.

5 basic ways to implement World Phenomena at schools:

World Phenomena as a new teaching subject

Why yes:

time to carry out activities and multiple topics
team teaching with two teachers / division into groups
creating a standard space for cross-curricular teaching

What to consider:

more demanding organizational arrangements: timetable
creating a curriculum for a new subject
higher demands on teachers

Real life example:

School management and teachers created a World Phenomena subject with a two-hour allowance from available lessons to create blocks of consecutive 45-minute classes to carry out activities. The World Phenomena are taught by two Physics-Biology and History-Geography teachers, and in block teaching they will take turns as needed. They also teach the whole class or divide into halves.

World Phenomena as part of existing subjects

Why yes:

ease of roll-out
each teacher teaches topics in which he/she is qualified
enhanced cross-curricular experience

What to consider:

exclusion of lessons from thematic plans
better coordination between teachers
less time for activities within a 45-minute lesson

Real life example:

Teachers chose the Water theme and split individual models among themselves. Teachers of physics, geography, chemistry, history, informatics participate and all models are taught in two weeks. They coordinate their work on an ongoing basis. In the end, they prepared a joint presentation where pupils presented their discoveries to other pupils from the same year.

World Phenomena as block teaching

Why yes:

enough time not limited to 45-minute classes
focus on a specific topic
enhanced cross-curricular experience

What to consider:

adaptation of thematic plans
program preparation and coordination
planning before start of school year/semester

Real life example:

The school decided to have block lessons on cross-curricular topics every Friday in November. Teachers divided all pupils into groups created from multiple years. They set up the program to teach the Air theme supplemented by other activities over 4 weeks.

World Phenomena as a thematic week

Why yes:

enough time for activities not limited to 45-minute classes
challenging the stereotypes of school teaching
enough space for comprehensive solving of topics

What to consider:

program preparation and coordination
assisting pupils with final presentation
planning before start of school year/semester

Real life example:

The school dedicates one week of the 2nd semester to the World Phenomena - for example three themes: Water, Sun and Air divided between 2nd level years and classes. At the end of the week, individual classes will pass on their knowledge to other pupils at a small conference.
