APS Kaluchak undertakes Vidyanjali Yojana initiative | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Apr 7: In consonance with the 'Vidyanjali Yojana', an initiative taken by the Ministry of Education, Government of India, Army Public School Kaluchak rendered its humble assistance by collaborating with a government school in its vicinity and participated in voluntary school service to contribute towards the exchange of requisite material and equipment to strengthen the selected government-aided institution. This initiative was executed in true letter and spirit under the aegis of Brig GPS Johal, Chairman, APS Kaluchak and was launched by Mrs Puja Sharma, Vice Principal, APS Kaluchak. The school extensively collaborated with Government Higher School located in Kaluchak and paved way towards bolstering the quality of education, infrastructure and amenities in the opted school. The initiative connected 35 children from grade VII and VIII with our school and provided them the much-needed opportunity to connect, reflect, share and also encouraged them about the dire need of developing scientific temperament, cultivating rationality, inquisitiveness, open-mindedness, critical thinking and objectivity so as to enable them to be at par with others. The highlights of this initiative were: Distribution of books for cultivating a habit of healthy reading amongst the children. Visit to all laboratories (Physics, Chemistry and Biology) in order to provide a 'hands-on' experience to the learners and to present the complex concepts in a lucid manner to enhance its coherence. Mnemonics for learning the entire Periodic table, Ball and stick models to strengthen the concept of atoms and molecules, usage of analogies for understanding various concepts, 3 D models for delving deep into the stereochemistry of organic compounds, 'play and learn cards' for developing the concept of valency and 3 D Models for understanding the anatomy of human body etc. The major hallmark of the initiative was the utilization of Atal-Tinkering Lab where the children of APS Kaluchak presented their National-level Science Model to provide representations of the technological and scientific concepts to make the ideas more understandable. They taught the children the dynamics of assembling and dismantling a model, its working mechanics and the varied innovative ideas used for its creation. The high school children relished these titbits and associated themselves very enthusiastically with this programme. This voluntary service proved fruitful by empowering the school children as it presented all nuances of science in a fun-filled, congenial environment to enhance its coherence and to bridge the learning gaps among children. |
