04 Dec Transylvania College is taking part of the study conducted by Research Schools International and Harvard Graduate School of Education
Transylvania College has been selected as one of 12 schools worldwide to be involved in a study led by Dr Christina Hinton from Harvard GSE and her team at Research Schools International (RSI).
The research focuses on How Round Square Schools support students’ International Understanding and it was launched by the Round Square education network.
The two-year international study will explore how educators in the RS community of 180 schools in 50 countries support students’ development of International Understanding. Students and teachers in all schools will be invited to contribute to the study their reflections on students’ global competencies, how the school supports students to develop those competencies, and which activities and approaches they believe are most effective in supporting their development.

As is customary practice within the Round Square community, student participation and voice will play an important part in the research process.
Mrs Raluca Stoenoiu and two Year 11 students, Claudia Muresan and Victor Andries, will represent Transylvania College in this project. This team of three in our school will be mentored over the coming months by the Research Team, will carry out important investigative work as part of the study, and will participate in a Research workshop at the Harvard Graduate School of Education in June 2018.
