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".

the problem lies in language, i think, as most of the students take time to understand the language first before they understand the subject behind and the teachers make it harder by communicating in the language that they're not familiar, mentoring through institutions should be simultaneously in the native languages as well needn't in the texts, so the students might open up in discussions and think about solving problems and create ideas rather trying to understand the language. JAI HIND!!!

1) All retired professionals from similar filed should be invited to guide students. 2) MHRD should facilitate summer camps in Delhi, where selective students should be allowed to speak to some renowned scientist, mathematicians etc from India and around the world. 3) In same summer camp, students should be allowed to go to meet farmers and visit farm field, so that they might get encouraged to invent some innovative ways to develop farming in future with help of technology.

my opinion is ,first of all the students should learn atleast a part of the subject from a professional of the particular field of research apart from the regular teachers of the subject, and they should be made to be engaged constantly in a form of art as it stimulates the creative part of the brain as it opens their imagination."teaching shouldn't be what happened yesterday but what happened until now". teachers should be trained to reach all studs and have all the answers... JAI HIND!!!!!!

Prime Minister should honor the memory of Honerable Abdul Kalam by creating TEMPLE OF SCIENCE each state in his honor. This would be a fitting tribute to him. Indians spend billions of rupees in building temples of religious faith if we spend the same amount on temple of science we will make true progress. PM has done enough for people of religious faith. Now it's time to please minority of people who have faith in logic and reason.

Dear Sir, We need an urgent overhaul of our education system. I graduated as an Engineer and I think I could have done a lot more had not I lost interest in studies because of the quality of teaching. Below are some points : 1 - School education needs improvement e.g - There should be more real world examples/practicals to make it more interesting 2 - From an IT perspective, certain things need to be taught earlier 3 - Curriculum in Engg sometimes I feel is not very industry relevant

Till education won't reach maximum no avishkar yojna could be successful . Our education system is fragile conditions of govt. Schools are pathetic nowadays teachers selection based on vote bank in many part of countries. And poors are deprived of getting private school education. Till govt not going to heed on govt schools you only have to wait for "gudri k laal"

Avishkar means invention and I have invented a new subject or form of education that is LOVE + SCIENCE = LOVESCIENCE This will help students to learn in peace and practical environment instead of studying information and practical education . I accept social problems cannot be destroyed it can only be convinced and controlled only by love, with love,for love. So my suggestion and my first and infinity request is to take a look in to my concept and I am sure that I may die my thoughts never die.
