The mini science center or lab is a collection of 75 table top working models with 33 back-drops on STEM topics. These topics are mapped to 120 concepts of Mathematics and Science as per the curriculum for Standards V - X.
STEM teachers of the school are trained in pedagogy and use of the new learning material and mini science center. This is done through focused training of 2 days during the year.
Children in the schools are provided with improved learning opportunities, with a focus on STEM. This is done through: -
i) Digital learning ii) STEM newsletter iii) Exposure visits
The project team also engages with parents of the children with the objective of creating a supportive eco system for their learning. This is particularly important in the case of girls who require additional support to ensure they continue schooling in higher grades.
