New Delhi: Why the Olympian Neeraj Chopra throws the javelin at 36 degrees even though the textbook says that the projectile becomes the farthest at 45 degrees? The IIT-Gandhinagar and CBSE ‘3030 Eklavya’ online education program will have the answer.
A similar program last year called “3030 stem” got around one crore view on their online platform and became popular among fans of students, teachers and mathematics.
Safe! You have managed to throw your votelogin to see the ‘3030 Eklavya’ LakonLline ‘session will be held every Sunday afternoon starting September 26.
This program will touch topics from science and mathematical curricula for sixth grade and help in the conceptual understanding of difficult topics through interesting questions.
“The episode will include a curriculum with an interesting context and story.
For example, the first episode of Newton’s Law will talk about why the Chopra Neeraj throws Javelin at 36 degrees and Paris gun launches cannonball at 55 degrees even though it is in accordance with the textbook of a projectile running the most on 45 degrees, “said Manish Jain, Head of the Creative Learning Center (CCL), IIT-Gandhinagar.
Paris Guns is a long distance German siege weapon used to bombard Paris during World War.
“Another episode on the power will talk about the power that works on a drop of water coming out of the sprinkler (which you can make it yourself) and whether it is spiral or satellite dish.
“The episode will be a combination of science and mathematical concepts.
In other episodes, there will be discussions about pi in a straight line and how you can find this magical amount in leaves on the path,” he added.
Jain explained that the objective of the program is to maintain creativity, out-of-box thinking, conceptual understanding and learning “how to learn”.
“With the awakening of AI (artificial intelligence) and machine learning, future work will require competency-based learning and high level skills, which cannot come from the prevalent learning process today.
The paradigm of fun and creative learning is very important to restore light In the eyes of students, “he said.
National Education Policy (NEP), 2020, imagined drastic reform and was needed in the education system.
However, implementing it, it may seem intimidating for school teachers and administrators, Jain said.
“CBSE and IIT-Gandhinagar tried to fill this gap with the ‘Eklavya’ series, Demystify NEP and showcased how to effectively implement policies in the light, would be very helpful for our teachers and students to register and participate in this program,” he added .
This series will contain many activities, projects and models that help in conceptual understanding of difficult topics; Interesting questions, assignments that promote creative thinking that are outside the box and inspire DIY project videos using local ingredients that connect the curriculum to life.
“Content will have a rate that varies and will cover topics in six to 12 grade mathematical curriculum and mathematics.
“Therefore, students from these values ​​must take advantage of this opportunity to register and participate for conceptual clarity and pleasant learning.
This will not only help the exam but also equip students to develop scientific temperaments, it is better to navigate their lives, “Word Gaurav Kumar Yadav, C-Founder CCL.
