Executive Summary : | Science and technology education is crucial for modernizing economies and improving citizens' conditions. Addressing the lack of diversity in education is essential. A proposed training program aims to enhance scientific skills for rural students, focusing on technical design thinking and hands-on lessons. The program will teach the fundamentals of computers, and then introduce courses in Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things, Cyber security, and Robotics. The objectives of the project are to enrich scientific awareness, facilitate hands-on training with emerging technologies, enable students to think innovatively, provide technical solutions to societal issues, develop careers with current technical advancements, enhance analytical thinking, develop startup firms, and strengthen their technical skills.The project provides a forum to disseminate knowledge and enhance technical skills in Science Technology Communication for rural school students. It creates awareness on advanced technologies and allows students to explore various research institutions, research laboratories, universities, and scientific institutions around India. This will help rural students choose their distinctive careers in Science Technology Communication. |
