The Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) launched the Rashtriya Avishkar Abhiyan on 09.07.2015. Late Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam (former President of India) presided over the function. The thrust of the Abhiyan is to provide support and a platform for schools to make Science, Mathematics and Technology exciting for children and encourage them to develop a natural curiosity interest and love towards learning Science and Mathematics, literally to “ignite their minds”.

One of the key highlights of the Abhiyan is the ‘Mentoring’ of schools and children through ‘Mentoring Institutions’ like IITs, NITs, Central Institutions, IISERs and Central State Universities and Colleges. Under the Abhiyan, the MHRD is also collaborating with Google in its ‘Code to Learn’ Contest where school students will be encouraged to develop Code using innovative software. Similarly, the Ministry is partnering with Intel for developing innovative technological capacities in girl students in Government schools.

In the first three years of the Abhiyan, it is expected that 25% of all Government schools will be covered by the ‘Mentoring Institutions’ through various activities and innovative strategies in partnership with the Department of Higher Education.

The Ministry invites ideas and suggestions from people on how the Abhiyan may creatively involve individuals to join the movement and to work directly work with school and school children to "ignite their minds".

Intelligent and sharp children in schools are to be recognized at an early stage. Teachers in the secondary schools are to be trained to mentor such students at an early stage so that they develop interest in Science education, research, inventions and innovations.Such students are to be fully financially supported through adequate scholarships to enable them to develop their interest in these fields. Scientists must be supported financially adequately at par with highest paid jobs.

I appreciate the collaboration with GOOGLE , instead of just a contest i would recommend that you form a team of Indian engineers and develop a platform form online where children would learn coding in terms of block diagrams (drag & drop) , also this team must be made to visit the schools where they can interact with the students , this will serve the initiative also create employment. #RashtriyaAvishkarAbhiyan

Computer and mathematics is core to innovation in any stream now. From the beginning classed should be organized in batches of only seven students in a set where classes are held in an office cum laboratory cum workshop type chamber under an expert mentor who will take care of all related subjects for whole five year for the batch. Segregate assessment from mentoring. Involve expert industry in assessment and recommendations for every individual student.

All premium institution are facing the crisis of shortage of faculty/staff. If mentoring work of primary school is associated with these faculty members it will cause a lot of stress to their primary duty of teaching to college students. So first thing govt to do is fill all the existing vacancies and only those institute which has all the vacancies filled should be given the work of mentoring.

There is need to improve the syllabus, it must instill contents of fundamental technologies such as mechanical, electrical civil, like algorithms, computer graphs, robotics, design software, workshop etc. understanding scientific models by visual aid and developing applications and develop in their mind to improve or propose alternative models as well. There is need to present this content in a simplified manner only an aim to work with them.

mostly schools mein faculty sirf student ko pass hone k liye pdhati hai but unhe advance level par pdhana chahiye aur bahut se additional subjects pdhaye jate hai jinka future mein koi use nhi hai so hme main subjects par focus krna chahiye aur schools mai teaching method advance krne chahiye....
