HALO Curriculum

HALO curriculum is designed to promote students to (1) have global vision and mindset by exploring global issues, (2) ask integrated and thought-provoking questions to deeply understand problems and ideate creative solutions, (3) learn background knowledge of key technology and apply skills to solve real world problems, and (4) open their potential as an important agent for global innovation and discover their power to make a global impact.

Curriculum Framework

HALO curriculum uses UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) to develop and supplement curriculum topics, which construct solid curriculum objectives and integrate STEAM-infused projects and cross-curricular activities essential to understanding technology and global issues.

In addition, HALO curriculum applies SMILE (Stanford Mobile Inquiry-based Learning Environment) to help students ask their own creative questions, develop critical thinking, and take learning into their hands.

Learning Model

HALO Curriculum learning model aligns with the extended version of Engineering Design Process — Discover, Define, Explore, Ideate, Create, Test, and Evaluate. Throughout the curriculum, students will:

• Discover global issues from UN SDG with various perspectives
• Define the problem to solve by digging into the problem in depth
• Explore key technologies by investigating current solutions
• Ideate their own creative solution by imagining and planning
• Create prototypes to test and evaluate their learned skills
