Why a Research-Based Education Matters Today – For Your Child’s Future
In today’s fast-changing world, children need more than just memorization—they need the ability to ask questions, think critically, and solve problems creatively. A research-based education nurtures these skills by encouraging students to explore, investigate, and make informed decisions.
At BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi, we cultivate a culture of inquiry, innovation, and intellectual curiosity. As a school of research, we empower students to explore real-world challenges through critical thinking, data-driven investigation, and collaborative problem-solving. Our research-based learning approach integrates academic rigor with hands-on exploration, preparing students to become future-ready leaders and changemakers in a global society.
Solar-Powered Energy Streetlights & Solar Charging Station: Innovative Renewable Energy Project Developed by Bryan from Grade 12
Bryan began to work for the Solar Power energy project, initiated and fully funded by BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi during his grade 11 year. This project was aimed to implement the Sustainability Development Program, broadly promote green energy and technology usage throughout our school and community.
Bryan worked on this project with the Building Management (BM) Team, from ideation to execution.
Through the project, he successfully launched his renewable energy innovation, using streetlights fully powered by solar energy. Currently, there are 4 streetlights with full solar energy, and followed by solar charging stations, in the school environment.
Besides, this breakthrough also revealed that this project allows them to reduce some carbon emissions.
