Interactive Science Lab

The philosophy of activity-based learning (STEAM activities) finds its antecedents in the common notion that learning can be done best when it is initiated by the surrounding environment and motivated by providing optimum opportunities to learn. A fearless environment and freedom to express always add to the learning outcomes. Activity-based Learning helps students express and embrace their curiosity. Once the students become curious, they tend to explore and learn by themselves.

Methodology

The school’s identification and selection were done by the CMF team.
Schools selection is carried out based on the Status of STEM (established, functional) as per government grant guidelines.
Availability of Infrastructure and any other limitations.
School management’s interest, willingness to take ownership and cooperation.

Impact

Around 12000 students from 1st to 10th grade from underprivileged backgrounds across schools and institutions in Mumbai, Palghar, Thane & Raigad benefited from this program. As assessed during the interactive sessions and also during one-on-one conversations with the students, school teachers, and authorities, students were enjoying the different games in the STEM KITS.
