Experiential learning initiative designed to nurture curiosity, creativity, and practical skills through interactive and application-based educational experiences
About
Activities and Hands-on Training for School Students is a structured initiative aimed at enhancing experiential learning beyond the traditional classroom environment. The program focuses on providing students with practical exposure through interactive workshops, demonstrations, experiments, creative projects, and skill-based sessions across disciplines such as science, technology, arts, environment, and life skills.
By engaging students in activity-based learning, the initiative encourages critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and innovation at an early stage. The training sessions are designed to be age-appropriate, engaging, and aligned with academic concepts to strengthen conceptual understanding through real-world application. Through guided mentorship and supervised practical exercises, students gain confidence, develop curiosity, and cultivate a spirit of inquiry.
The overall objective is to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical implementation, thereby fostering holistic development and preparing young learners to become future-ready, responsible, and skilled individuals.
Raman Research Activity
Raman Research Activity
The Raman Research Activity is a regular academic initiative conducted for students of Std. VII, VIII, and IX as a two-day Research Methodology STEM Workshop. Organized by the Research and Development Cell, Shikshana Prasaraka Mandali, Pune, with academic support from its research and innovation foundation, the programme aims to nurture scientific temper, research aptitude, and experiential learning in alignment with the vision of NEP 2020.
The activity is designed to bridge classroom concepts with structured hands-on experimentation in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology. Students are introduced to the fundamentals of research methodology, including idea generation, hypothesis formulation, experimental design, laboratory safety, data collection, and interpretation. Practical sessions include optics experiments, food adulteration analysis, plant cytology studies, and inquiry-based projects that promote observation, documentation, and analytical thinking.
The workshop further emphasizes data analysis, innovation, sustainability, and entrepreneurship, enabling students to understand the complete research cycle from concept to conclusion. Through guided mentorship and collaborative learning, participants develop critical thinking, problem-solving ability, teamwork, and scientific communication skills, fostering a strong foundation for future research and innovation.
