Why STEM?

The ultimate goal of STEM education is to encourage students to take an interest in STEM subjects at an early age. This should be beneficial to them when they enter the jobs market, and in turn it should benefit the greater economy.

Many robotics labs, workshops, competitive events, teachers' training,summer trainings in schools are established to popularize stem education.

Motivate students to most exciting sides of STEM education through:

IOT: The Internet of things is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity which enables these objects to connect and exchange data.

Robotics: Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as computer systems for their control,sensory feedback, and information processing.

Aero modeling: Aero-modelling is the activity involving design, development and flying of small air vehicles. It is a very exciting and interesting way to learn, apply and understand science and engineering principles. Aero-modelling generally involves small sized flying objects like Fixed Wing, Flying-wing, Gliders.

3D printing: Also known as additive manufacturing . It turns digital 3D models into solid objects by building them up in layers.

Virtual reality Virtual reality is the term used to describe a three-dimensional, computer generated environment which can be explored and interacted with by a person.

Atal tinkering labs: ATL is a work space where young minds can give shape to their ideas through hands on do-it-yourself mode; and learn innovation skills. Young children will get a chance to work with tools and equipment to understand the concepts of STEM

Vision of Atal Tinkering Labs

To ‘Cultivate one Million children in India as Neoteric Innovators’ under the Atal Innovation Mission in schools across India.

Key Objectives ofAtal Tinkering Labs

Tinkering labs are now promoted in India. Mr. Amitabh Kant, CEO of NITI (National Institution Of Transforming India) Ayog said – “For India to grow at the rate of 9 to 10 % then India must become very innovative society.” We need culture of innovation at schools. We’re doing that through Tinkering Labs,” said Kant.

What will Atal Tinkering Labs comprise of?

Atal tinkering labs is a workspace where students from class 6th to class 12 learn innovation skills and develop ideas that will go on to transform India. The labs are powered to acquaint students with state-of-the-art equipment such as 3D printers,robotics & electronics development tools,IoT & sensors etc. The lab activities are designed to spur the spark of creativity, and go beyond the regular curriculum and text book learning. ATL labs are set up to harness the potential of gifted and motivated children-specially in small towns and remote places

“To get the better idea about what students can invent or create,one should visit such labs,Here you will be amazed to see the ideas students are working upon.”
