Box of Science - Summer Camp

Robotics in Action

Image
Introductory session on our  'Robo360' program. At ' Box of Science ', we have developed this holistic course for school children.  Nowadays robotics in school; is a common trend. Most of the programs are developed and sold to schools without having verified with cognitive levels of a kid. We have thought to this issue, and came with our 'Robotics in Action' program. In this course we take kids through step by step introduction of technology.  Here we don't go for pre-made kits, we don't start with those weird program languages. We believe in effectivity of content rather than throwing loads of information.

Childhood with 'Box of Science'

Looking back to the childhood days always bring sweet memories of joy & leave us with the feeling of abundance,The feeling that we can do anything & everything..we hardly forget our life learning from those days..Good or Bad all become part of our learning process..You have definitely felt that sense of curiosity inside your little kids playing with mobiles,sometimes TV remotes, laptops, for the va rieties of fun & excitement they feel after grabbing them..& the sense of disappointment when we take them away from them either saying it's not for you little kid...or the another option we buy them mobile,laptop etc toys as market is full of such options too..This is one example only.. If we go in Depth of all this process going inside our Children ,we will realize may b some or all can relate too it's their love of Science .. Now what Science is??? it is study of Nature so in short it is there love for Nature..& I don't think I need to mention Why

Astronomy In Action

With audio-visual tour of the universe, we concluded this workshop. Amazed with curiosity within these little scientists. We gave them project of making scale model of the Solar System. I wish Astronomy could become serious study topic during school years. It is a fascinating subject that is source to almost all streams of sciences. One can connect number of subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, Computation, Mathematics etc to the Astronomy. Enjoyed answering their questions as well. Join us

Organised in the midst of nature, this camp was focused on boosting creativity of the kids. Three day camp at Govardhan Eco Village was a retreat for these little scientists. We have designed this camp to expose them to - Environment education, Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry, Renewable energy studies. They have experienced beauty of nature at its best. Workshop was packed with number of things like - Bird watching, organically grown food, waste management study, classical dance shows etc. Indeed it was a great time, lived to its fullest.

Teachers Training

Image
Since dawn of human civilization, Guru's have been major part of transformation in society. In ancient times, our education system was more dynamic. It was based on ' Learning by doing' culture. In modern times, specially after going through a century of British Raj, the system was successfully degraded. There are number of facets when it comes to revamping Indian Education system. One amongst them is 'Teaching Tools'. If we look around there is a huge dearth of classroom teaching aids. We need to reinvent idea of 'Lecture'. At ' Box of Science ' , we are trying to solve this gap. In picture: Parag Gore

Welcome to Box of Science

We are working for Science Communication since last 15 fruitful years. During this decade we have reached thousands of students through hundreds of workshops, slide shows, sky observations, experts talk, teacher's training and what not. At  Box of Science , we believe that education has power to transform any nation and all earthlings. But the way of educating little curious sparkles needs to be revamped. Current system lacks in many ways. One of that is experiential approach. Hence we have dedicated our efforts to transform it. Devoted activists from our team have designed diverse activities to nurture curious minds. Providing Hands on Experience to students is a verified method for their growth, analytical skills and logical thinking. It is accepted as a proper education method in many developed countries. Activity based learning helps in boosting creativity and confidence. School child is fascinated with pool of thoughts, high energy. We don’t want them to lose it over vio
