ABOUT US
Young Scientist, A Academy of Science, is actively engaged in enriching knowledge sphere of students by giving them opportunity to learn science by doing it.
Sunday Science School is an Out of Box concept, conceived by us based on our consistent efforts in science popularization during last few years. Since last three academic years, Sunday Science School is successfully run at Mumbai and Pune with overwhelming response from students and parents.
WHAT IS IN IT...
SSS offers students a different outlook. It gives them an opportunity to handle scientific material, do their own experiments, build their own projects and while doing so, understand underlying principles.
Participants go through the following stages as part of the Young Scientist program approach: Brainstorm Apply critical thinking Optimize resources use Explore Possibilities Gain Insights Create a holistic solution
Benefit to students
Introduce them to basic design thinking methodology Help them develop critical thinking and problem solving approach Foster intuition, common sense and analytical faculty in the students Nurtures natural curiosity and creativity To enable development of abilities needed to deal with unconventional situations that require creative, unique and multiple concepts.
Benefit to school Will be seen as a progressive school that exposes students to new methods of learning Opportunity to get the teachers involved in experiential learning The projects and models can be exhibited during inter school exhibitions The methodology can be extended to school
learning
All activities, projects and experiments done by students are given to them as their own possession.
The projects and material collected during one year builds a great HomeLab for student. This becomes a pride possession for the family.

WHATS NEXT??
Students from 5th to 10th standards are usually enrolled for Sunday Science School. However, those who are students at heart can also seek admission to this course..age is no bar. Sunday Science School operates for 2 hours on each Sunday at different locations. Expert Facilitator helps students perform all activities and understand scientific principles.
