Would you like your Science teachers to become stronger in Science? Would you like your Math teachers to master Math concepts? Open Door is launching the 'Subject Mastery Program for Teachers' with the goal of making Science and Math teachers masters of their subjects. Assess your teachers on subject knowledge and improve them in 4 months!
a) Teachers will achieve mastery of the topics that they teach every year leading to increased confidence among teachers.
b) A good grasp of the subject will open up a new dimension to teaching. This will lead to effective lesson plans and better question design.
c) Open Door will provide recognition to teachers after the program thereby building a culture of learning among teachers.
1. Initial assessment: Teachers will take an Open Door assessment centred on key concepts taught by them that are often misunderstood even by the teachers. Open Door will share the syllabus of the assessment beforehand.
2. Feedback and In-depth Discussion: After the assessment, educators will receive comprehensive feedback, offering insight and improvement guidance. The Open Door team will discuss the assessment with the teachers.
3. Re-assessment: Open Door will conduct a second assessment on the same topic after 3 months to help teachers to show an improvement in their understanding.
1. Initial Assessment in August/September (you can choose the date)
2. Detailed Feedback and discussion (2 weeks after the Initial Assessment)
3. Re-assessment in December/January (you can choose the date)The program is open to 10 schools to participate in this phase on a first-come, first-serve basis. This is a unique opportunity for you to develop a learning culture among your Science and Math teachers.
Listen to the Thinking Classroom song: A catchy tune that showcases a teacher's quest to create a Thinking Classroom.
Open Door started in 2013. Today, we offer programs like Thinking Assessments, Thinking Classroom, the Subject Mastery Program for teachers, and a Critical Thinking Program for students.
We imagine a world where every child learns by thinking—not by memorizing. Our programs have "beautiful questions" to make children think and question, helping them build lifelong understanding of Science and Math.
A team of young graduates from top Indian universities (like IITs and NITs) designs the questions. These questions are making 300000+ students think more than before.
Open Door offers 4 main educational programs:
Thinking Assessments
For Classes 3–10: Topic-based tests with thought-provoking questions to build lifelong Science/Math understanding.
Thinking Classroom
For Classes 4–10: CBSE-aligned workbooks that replace traditional teaching with real-world questions.
Critical Thinking Program
For Classes 6–8: Developed with IIT Gandhinagar to help teachers guide students' critical thinking.
Subject Mastery Program
For Teachers: Helps Science/Math teachers master their subjects through assessment and improvement.
These are topic-wise assessments for classes 3–10. In therse assessments there are thought-provoking questions to help students deeply understand Science and Math.
For classes 4–10, it provides CBSE-mapped workbooks that replace boring lectures. Students tackle real-world questions like "Can you design Virat Kohli’s diet?" or "Would we hear ourselves if we shouted on the Moon?"
This program is designed with IIT Gandhinagar for classes 6–8. Its purpose is to help teachers guide students to think critically during regular school hours.
This program helps Science/Math teachers master their subjects. It allows schools to assess teachers’ knowledge and improve it in just 4 months.
