Visit to the STEM lab at Sirsi

On 1st January we had the opportunity to visit the STEM lab at Shree Marikamba High school in Sirsi. The purpose of the visit to the STEM lab focused on improving the skills of teachers in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). This lab was established recently with a modern, well-equipped facility designed to provide hands-on learning experiences for students in various aspects of STEM education. The lab allows the students to work individually and or in groups. There is a facilitator to explain the concepts.

This lab included the physics, chemistry, Mathematics, Biology and technology related models. In science we got to know about many models like Newton’s disc, periscope, Telescope, Electromagnetism, Potential and Kinetic energy, Newton’s Laws of Motion, Laws of reflection, Ohm’s Law, Solar energy, wind energy, Day and Night concepts etc. In Mathematics there are models to explain the Pythagoras theorem, area of trapezium, area of circle, and square and proofs of some identities. In Biology we got to know about the models like the Human heart, Respiratory system, Digestive system, DNA model and Human eye. This lab included simple chemistry experiments such as creating vinegar and baking soda reactions, acids and base test, PH value of the compound, Sodium chloride reaction and Atomic structure. Through these models students can easily understand the concepts. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the staff of the STEM lab for their warm welcome and for providing detailed information about the lab’s programs.
