When 'disconnecting' is also a form of effective use of technology

A familiar paradox of the digital age, when the whole world is always 'online', countless data, images, information appear everywhere on the internet, the ability to select and proactively 'disconnect' at the right time is the sign of effective use of technology. At Asian School, the journey to approach technology does not stop at mastering machines but also gradually mastering oneself.

As each lesson is a journey of discovery , Asian School students develop independent thinking in a positive and inspiring learning environment.

Access and use technology intentionally

Not simply "using" technology, Asian School students are also oriented to approach technology as a tool to observe, ask questions and create practical values. Depending on the specific subject, students are able to use technology devices to acquire knowledge from many different perspectives, through interacting, analyzing and exploring lessons in the most intuitive and vivid way.

With advanced technology equipment such as robots, virtual reality glasses..., STEM Center creates an ideal learning space for students to explore, experience and create in the fields of science , technology, engineering and mathematics. Not only limited to the classroom, students can also visit the Data Center and Artificial Intelligence (SIU AI Lab) of Saigon International University (SIU), directly chat with the robot "friend" SIUBOT, promote curiosity and develop thinking ability, and at the same time have a clearer awareness of the important role of technology in future life.

Asian School students proactively use technology as a learning tool, explore lessons from multiple perspectives, and practice analytical and creative thinking.

"Disconnect" in the age of information saturation

We live in a constant flow of data, where every question is answered with just a few clicks, but it cannot replace human thinking and brainstorming. "Disconnecting" does not mean rejecting technology, but rather a way for students to regain independent thinking space, avoiding being caught up in passive information consumption. Solving challenges on their own without relying on technology is a way to practice independent thinking and strong self-learning ability.

Using technology properly, Asian School students turn technology into a companion in their journey of knowledge discovery.

Disconnect to connect deeper

In an always-on “online” world , knowing when to pause is not just a personal choice, but an essential part of the modern learning journey. When students actively “disconnect,” they are not distancing themselves from knowledge, but learning to listen to themselves, observe the real world, and think with their own inner strength. That is the sustainable foundation for technology not to dominate, but to become a tool for comprehensive development - where people play a central role and independent thinking is prioritized.

STEM Center at Asian School offers a modern learning space with advanced technology equipment such as robots, virtual reality glasses... helping students freely explore, experience and create in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
