The Telangana Social Welfare Residential Educational Institutions Society (TSWREIS) Society in collaboration with Jay Robotix, a city-based incubated robotics company, has launched the 'ROBOX STEM LABS' programme.
The programme aims to mould the students as innovators and change makers in the field of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
"This is one of the major milestones in the history of the government education sector in India, and this programme will help the students acquire 21st century core skills and make them reach new heights in life in a world driven by science and technology," TSWREIS Secretary R S Praveen Kumar said in a release today.
The programme, which will be formally launched by Kumar tomorrow, enables the students to learn science and technology concepts through experimentation and practical learning in an interactive classroom environment.
The ROBOX employs student friendly innovative teaching aids like videos, animation, 3D video games, simulation, designing, navigation, etc., and enables the students to develop, nurture and choose their areas of interest in the field of science and technology, it said.
Kumar said there is a dire need to impart core skills like analytical, problem solving, innovation and leadership skills for the next generation students of globalised economy.
"Establishment of ROBOX LABS is a major initiative in an endeavour to promote scientific temper among the needy and marginalised children hailing from poor socio-economic backgrounds," he added.
"The ROBOX will be introduced in all schools in a phased manner," the Secretary added.
