It’s really fun making robots along with studies. It gives a whole new meaning to education.”

“Many kids fear science and somewhat believe they won’t be able to decipher the.formulas and theorems. The whole purpose of this exercise is to help them overcome this fear,” says DLF Foundation’s Gayatri Paul, the brain behind the project. “In fact, schools abroad have adopted this holistic method of teaching long ago, telling kids about new technologies in a fun way.”
There are a lot of students who do not have an academic bent of mind and thus find it very difficult to comprehend lessons; this is the one of the causes why children from a poor background refrain themselves from continuing their education further.
This initiative by DLFFoundat`ion is an attempt towards facilitating learning in science and mathematics in a full-filled way. This type of creative learning bridges gap between key theoretical concepts and their application. It also equips the students with futuristic skills, enhances their income- earning potential, and is a significant step towards making them innovators of tomorrow.
