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".

Science,as per our education system, has been reduced only to examinations. I would suggest that we stop taking written exams and rather ask teachers to engage students in more activities and participation. Let the students see science happening before their eyes rather leaving it upto their own imagination after reading few lines from books. At the end of each class student can be asked to demonstrate a scientific event and explain it's underpinnings as a presentation.

i feel change syllabus from lower level on words. upto 10th class students studying more than 50% on language. why three or two language system?? remove we need english only not hindi also. mother tongue they will learn in home. make concentration on science and maths, make professionals like single language countries. students must know about their future in sixth class onwards. make education compulsory upto 8th class in government schools.

it all depends on the teachers who teach the subjects because they can make the world or break the world.So teacher must have the ability to create interest among the students towards the subjects.After that students can find their own way of exploring the subjects.So teacher should have trained in proper way that he can fasten student mind with the subject.One thing we should know is a stone could not be a perfect statue without a proper architect.

1) There are many schools who pressurise the children for scoring good marks and this hide their natural talent#MHRD 2)The conditions of government schools are more than worst in most of the foreign countries government school are ideal school and much better than private school. If the facilities of smart classes and luxury facilities are difficult to provide than at least give them some well educated teacher and good environment not that what we have seen in bihar#Mygov

श्रीमान प्रधानमंत्री जी हमें एक अच्छा डॉक्टर,इंजीनियर,क्लेक्टर,वैज्ञानिक,और एक अच्छा इंसान देश के लिए तभी मिल सकता है जब हम अपनी नयी पीडी के लिए योग्य शिक्षक दें।हमें मुफ़्त शिक्षा की अपेक्षा गुणवत्तापरक शिक्षा पर ध्यान देना चाहिए निजी स्कूल मैं भी न्यूनतम योग्यता मास्टर्स रखनी चाहिए जैसे सरकार भवन आदि का निरीक्षण करते है वैसे ही शिक्षकों का समय समय पर निरिक्षण करना चाहिए।केंद्र और राज्य को मिलकर एक संयुक्त शिक्षक नियुक्ति प्रक्रिया बनानी चाहिए जो पूरे देश में सामान हो।आप इसपर अवश्य ध्यान देंगे

In order to improve the education system in india , reduce the load on young students, make universities student friendly. i have studied in karnataka in VTU, and everyone hates it. they have rules worse than sharia law in engineering colleges, like year back, nssr etc. students just byheart to get marks. they don't value learning. they have unnecessary subjects which are useless and which no one remembers after they complete their higher education. the same is true for schools also.

#RastriyAvishkarAbhiyan Government should provide proper training periodically to faculties of various govt institutes and schools to improve thier knowledge and capability of teaching skill.because it will help them to transform good knowledge thier students, if faculties are capable so they definitely encourage students to develop creative and innovative skill. we have example of Missial Man "DR A P J Abdul Kalam" how thier teachers helped him develop thier skills".
