Kamla by Vijay Tendulkar is a naturalistic play. It focuses on the changed role of women in society. It was inspired by a real-life incident - the Indian Express exposure by Ashwin Sarin, who actually bought a girl from a rural flesh market and presented her at a press conference. But using this incident as a launching pad, Tendulkar raises certain cardinal questions regarding the value system of a modern success-oriented generation who are ready to sacrifice human value in the name of humanity itself. The playwright exposes the innate self-deception of this standpoint. It is the story of an unfortunate woman sold away in the flesh market and a so-called happy housewife married to a daring journalist, both having a revelation of finding themselves on the common platform of sexual slavery in this male-dominated world.

“Enki Pinki Ponki! The Man had a Donkey”

Enki Pinki Ponki! The Man had a Donkey is a children’s play adapted from Sarad Joshi’s "Ek tha Gadha". The play is about a king who always wants to be popular on the social network. His stupid announcements backfire and teach him a lesson. Even though it is a children’s play by children, it can be enjoyed by adults too.

“Gold”
Gold is a play about two friends who search for gold. By the end of the play, we realize that importance of a friend.

A commentary on art's long and complicated relationship with religion.

On the occasion of 4th UN Global Road Safety Week between 8-14 May 2017, Roadkraft is screening some road safety films on the topic. Followed by an open session for anyone to present skits, one act plays, stand up comedy, messages, etc to spread awareness on Speed and its dangers.

Motherhood is the most revered and celebrated bond. On Mother’s Day, we honour mothers, motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. Yet we have a very narrow understanding of this term. We have forgotten that this system of caregiving exists in all mammals and other species, including birds. We have somehow made this a human exclusive emotion. But in reality "A mother's love is the same regardless of the species”. We revere this mother- child bond and yet fail to think about the animal agriculture which is surviving and thriving on the exploitation of this precious relationship. Join us this Sunday on Mother’s Day for a short video screening, followed by a talk about the plight of non human mother's and how we can put an end to this exploitation.

Rediscovering Tagore through his letters (নবপরিচয়ে রবীন্দ্রনাথ)

We live in times when space and time has been boxed into the shiny screens of electronic device, our languages have suffered the metamorphosis of jumbled up abbreviated emotions and emoticons. In his times, amidst his incredibly productive life, Rabindranath Tagore took great care to write intimate letters to his friends and family. The sheer literary quality of those apparently simple letters elevate the act of letter-writing to a definitive art-form. On the occasion of his 156th birthday, we would present a collage of his selected letters complemented with his songs and dance. It is our sincere and humble effort to rediscover ourselves in discovering Tagore, again, in a new way.

With the current trends in technology and increased importance being given to Arts in combination with technology, we introduce the STEAM based Crafts and BotsTM workshop for little innovators this summer.



Crafts and Bots is a combination of Craft work and Robotics. Here the students will be encouraged to think out of the box and develop gadgets and models using things around them like cardboard and thermocol in combination with EtchBricks. EtchBricks are Electronic building blocks which can be plugged in to each other to build amazing interesting projects without the need for programming, soldering or any prior knowledge in electronics.



Using EtchBricks anyone can build projects without the need of a computer. Instead children will be building a very small computer of their own which takes inputs and gives relevant outputs. This circuit in combination with Arts and Crafts help students build amazing models. With the simplicity of building projects, children as young as 7+ years can build, make and innovate amazing creations using EtchBricks.

The short term summer workshop will have the following impact on students

1. Students will be taught, how the basic gadgets around them work.

2. How they can make gadgets on their own using the material around them in combination with EtchBricks; using concepts of STEAM which is Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math.

3. Students will be encouraged to think on their own, discuss and build projects, which will put their creative thinking, group activity and problem solving skills to use.

4. With just a short term workshop, students will gain confidence that they can build interesting projects using things around them.

5. This experience will help them think differently and make contribution to various national level science fairs along with students from various other schools.

Workshop Format:
1. Though we believe in Group Activity, we are very seriously concerned over individual learning. So there is NO group sharing of kits, each kid builds his/her own project. This allows each student gaining confidence to build and make along with bringing shy students to take a forward step who otherwise will be hidden in larger groups.

2. The students will be allowed to think practically and implement their own ideas. Once they get an understanding of the EtchBricks Kit, they will be confident and curious enough to build on their own.

3. A competition will be conducted at the end of the workshop based on a theme, the winner will be provided with an appreciation award and an interesting gift.

FEES: The fees of the Five day workshop will be Rs. 1600/- for 5 days which includes FREE take home kit worth Rs. 500/-.
Timings: The workshop will start at 11:00 AM and end at 1:00 PM every day from Tuesday to Saturday which is 16th May to 20th May.

The talk will concentrate on how the revolution occured and its consequences! It will also explore future possibilities for the socialist idea.

SPEAKER:
Dr.V.Janardhan is a professor at the Department of Sociology, University of Hyderabad. His research interests include industry and labour, and business studies. He has been a keen student of labour for nearly two decades now. As a researcher primarily but also in a limited sense as an activist, he has been associated with trade unionism in premier industrial metropolises in India.

CONTEXT:
It is hundred years since the Bolshevik revolution happened! But when it happened it shook the world and also shook many ideas, beliefs and prognoses. According to orthodox Marxian theory it was not supposed to happen there. But it happened due to certain peculiar or unique material conditions in Russia at that time, AND, in significant measure due to the presence of one man – LENIN.

Lenin took the revolution when it happened, to another phase, in the direction of socialism and communism. He was for speeding up the process of the ‘stages of history’ by immediate transcendence from a nascent capitalism in Russia to consciously building socialism, under the aegis of a workers’ state and a Party that held power in the name of the working class. The latter was not exactly the most numerous class then but by Marxist doctrinaire understanding the most ‘progressive’ class historically.

The working class, controlled by the Party which also would dominate the state apparatus, was to push towards socialism. The movement eventually went towards a totalitarian state and society, a movement which can be dubbed as ‘from Lenin(ism) to Stalin(ism)’.

These were all crucial deviations from orthodox/classical Marxism. The Russian/Bolshevik revolution attracted severe philosophical, theoretical and ideological criticism from several other Marxian tendencies.

We, The Wings creations, a team of independent film makers want to show case our films. The films talk about social issues like acid attacks, suicides, deforestation, children rights and hunger and LOVE. It is a open to all event.

Riding on a Sunbeam: Journeys through Space, Time, Life and Love … is a special and exciting travel film that follows Mauktik Kulkarni (an Engineer turned Neuroscience student turned Zen traveler) and Sammy Jo (a Berkeley undergrad taking a gap semester) … in an unconventional touristy way.

Playfully, abundantly and on occasions, acutely, they explore the contradictions of our Indian society with interesting perspectives … exploring economically developed places alongside backward regions, staunchly nationalistic mind sets side by side with the insurgency prone pockets and the socially conservative elements that co-exist with countless liberal lifestyles … All within the same India.

Through smaller stories experienced throughout with the eyes of the two protagonists … Mauktik, who now turns to his own country and Sammy, who has never seen India before. The film creates a mosaic of India that is at once exhilarating, reflective, enchanting and laughable … in a way that has rarely been seen before.

Director: Brahmanand S Siingh is an award-winning filmmaker (producer-director) and writer based out of Mumbai. His latest film, Kaagaz Ki Kashti (Paperboat … 126 mins), a biopic on legendary ghazal maestro Jagjit Singh, just ready for take-off, is already sailing on appreciative waves. His National-Award winning (among many other awards and accolades) feature-length documentary on RD Burman, Pancham Unmixed: Mujhe Chalte Jaana Hai, (113 mins) continues to enjoy an amazing, sweeping cult, critical and popular acclaim across viewing platforms.

Other recent feature documentaries like Riding on a Sunbeam: Journeys through Space, Time, Life & Love (108 mins), a fascinating travel documentary on the way non-touristy India presents itself to us; Through Our Eyes (85 mins), a group of batch-mates from a premiere Institute looking back at their elliptical journey of 25 years while continuing to dream ahead are also being extremely well-received. Even his earlier, somewhat shorter works like Ragpickers; Uncaging the Body (Apsara Award for Best Short Film, 2003-2004); A Burden of Love (on Alzheimer’s disease); Ashgari Bai (on an octogenarian legendary dhrupad singer) and a whole lot of other short, corporate and documentary films have drawn great response, highly recognized for its sensitivity, authenticity and engaging quality.

Siingh often brings out an insightful, exploring and reflective quality in the subjects that excite him, bringing out its core essence in a soulful and captivating manner. Many of his films have been screened at various International film festivals as well as on national and international television channels, and have been nominated for and won, national and international awards. He has also been invited to be on the Jury on International Film Festivals and is a consultant on selection of films in many film festivals and award platforms.

Currently, Singh is producing and directing another feature documentary, Quawwali: A Soulful Flight and developing a feature project, Jhalki … Ek Aur Bachpan (A Different Childhood) … the International buzz for which is already considered very high. He has also initiated a path-breaking venture — a series of well-researched, grippingly-told, tastefully-presented and thoroughly-distributed Biopics under Mobius Biopics Pvt Ltd.

Male protagonist: Mauktik Kulkarni, Executive Producer and co-anchor of Riding on a Sunbeam, is an engineer-turned-neuroscientist and is an entrepreneur at heart. He has been a part of two successful startups and is currently co-founder of a third startup named Wazzat Labs. He is an author, film maker, public speaker and traveler who has backpacked through more than 50 countries. His first book ‘A Ghost of Che,’ a memoir based on his solo, 8000km motorcycle trip in South America, was published in 2009 and he is working on his second book based on his one-year, round-the-world trip. He has delivered invited lectures on neuroscience, entrepreneurship, traveling, film-making and anything else that strikes his fancy. He has been a guest columnist for travel/sports and, over the past few years, gotten into film-making. ‘Riding on a Sunbeam,’ his first film project, is a backpacking film about India directed by National-award winner Brahmanand Singh. He is currently working on his second film project, which is a feature film adaptation of his book.

Female protagonist: Samantha Jo Fitzsimons is the female protagonist of the film, Samantha (Sammy) has backpacked through more than 10 countries even at a young age of 22 years.

A panel discussion (1hr discussion + 1hr Q&A) on the ocassion of International Hawkers day! Focus on sustainable consumerism and the contribution of a hawker in the value chain. Entree free for all.

SPEAKERS:
1) T. Vijayendra - Environmentalist & Ex-Trade Union Activist (Sustainability in Value chains & Importance of Hawker)
2) Sudharshan Rao - Trade Union Activist (Challenges & rights of Hawker)

CONTEXT:
Hawkers deserve support from other sections of people who benefit from their activities, as hawkers form an important section of the working class. They provide important consumer goods and services for ordinary people at affordable cost. Some times when they sell seasonal fruits, members of the upper classes also buy from them because they are fresh.

They form an important link in the chain of sustainable consumerism. Their prices are low because their over heads low. The hawker or his family does the procurement, processing or cooking themselves. They have low or zero inventories costs
Even though their prices are low, people still haggle for prices because the buyers are also poor. People don't haggle when they buy from big stores. Still in some cases, like hawkers selling tea or idlis from bicycle, the prices are fixed.

Traditional mass manufacturing methods resulted in the growth of retailing and hypermarkets. Such a value chain is mainly responsible for the excessive acquistion of consumer goods in the society. Theres a need to reconfigure these supply chains to achieve sustainability benefits. Hence, Hawkers and decentralized production chains are to be encouraged.

Hawkers face harassment as there are various channels of corruption through both govt. and non-govt. bodies, where hawkers end up paying space rent illegally.

Automation in the IT industry threatens to disrupt workforce like no other in the recent times. This, coupled with growing protectionism in several developed economies is going to take its toll on the Indian IT industry. With the startup ecosystem showing no signs of large scale recruitments either, the IT dependent workforce is at crossroads. In this context, it is imperative for IT professionals to sit together, discuss, and come up with ways and means to ensure their job security, and holistic personal and professional growth.

With the current trends in technology and increased importance being given to Arts in combination with technology, we introduce the STEAM based Crafts and BotsTM workshop for little innovators this summer.
Crafts and Bots is a combination of Craft work and Robotics. Here the students will be encouraged to think out of the box and develop gadgets and models using things around them like cardboard and thermocol in combination with EtchBricks. EtchBricks are Electronic building blocks which can be plugged in to each other to build amazing interesting projects without the need for programming, soldering or any prior knowledge in electronics.
Using EtchBricks anyone can build projects without the need of a computer. Instead children will be building a very small computer of their own which takes inputs and gives relevant outputs. This circuit in combination with Arts and Crafts help students build amazing models. With the simplicity of building projects, children as young as 7+ years can build, make and innovate amazing creations using EtchBricks.
The short term summer workshop will have the following impact on students
Students will be taught, how the basic gadgets around them work.
How they can make gadgets on their own using the material around them in combination with EtchBricks; using concepts of STEAM which is Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math.
Students will be encouraged to think on their own, discuss and build projects, which will put their creative thinking, group activity and problem solving skills to use.
With just a short term workshop, students will gain confidence that they can build interesting projects using things around them.
This experience will help them think differently and make contribution to various national level science fairs along with students from various other schools.
Workshop Format: 1. Though we believe in Group Activity, we are very seriously concerned over individual learning. So there is NO group sharing of kits, each kid builds his/her own project. This allows each student gaining confidence to build and make along with bringing shy students to take a forward step who otherwise will be hidden in larger groups.
The students will be allowed to think practically and implement their own ideas. Once they get an understanding of the EtchBricks Kit, they will be confident and curious enough to build on their own.
A competition will be conducted at the end of the workshop based on a theme, the winner will be provided with an appreciation award and an interesting gift.
FEES: This is a free workshop meant to spark creativity in girls. As most of our events are dominated by boys. We want to make it clear that girls are equally good at it.

THE PARTICIPATION FOR THIS EVENT IS BY PREREGISTRATION. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED TO PARTICIPATE PLEASE REGISTER IN THE LINK PROVIDED AT THE END OF THE DESCRIPTION
Conversations on Education is planned as a series of dialogical events to together explore the idea of education and its connection to our lives, aspirations, notions of work/employment and also engage with the implications of this with our own predicaments as learners, parents, teachers or even employers. We also hope to explore the possibilities available through more convivial educational opportunities/options available.
At this session we hope to examine some of the myths of the schooling system that we have all internalized. Can we, individually and collectively, look within and ponder over what is it that we have to root out of our belief system and explore what that change will translate into for myself (if I am a student), my child (if I am a parent) and for my students (if I am a teacher). 

This event is the second of the series . Please register here for participation in the discussion

Kamla by Vijay Tendulkar is a naturalistic play. It focuses on the changed role of women in society. It was inspired by a real-life incident - the Indian Express exposure by Ashwin Sarin, who actually bought a girl from a rural flesh market and presented her at a press conference. But using this incident as a launching pad, Tendulkar raises certain cardinal questions regarding the value system of a modern success-oriented generation who are ready to sacrifice human value in the name of humanity itself. The playwright exposes the innate self-deception of this standpoint. It is the story of an unfortunate woman sold away in the flesh market and a so-called happy housewife married to a daring journalist, both having a revelation of finding themselves on the common platform of sexual slavery in this male-dominated world.

Motherhood is the most revered and celebrated bond. On Mother’s Day, we honour mothers, motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. Yet we have a very narrow understanding of this term. We have forgotten that this system of caregiving exists in all mammals and other species, including birds. We have somehow made this a human exclusive emotion. But in reality "A mother's love is the same regardless of the species”. We revere this mother- child bond and yet fail to think about the animal agriculture which is surviving and thriving on the exploitation of this precious relationship. Join us this Sunday on Mother’s Day for a short video screening, followed by a talk about the plight of non human mother's and how we can put an end to this exploitation.

Rediscovering Tagore through his letters (নবপরিচয়ে রবীন্দ্রনাথ)

We live in times when space and time has been boxed into the shiny screens of electronic device, our languages have suffered the metamorphosis of jumbled up abbreviated emotions and emoticons. In his times, amidst his incredibly productive life, Rabindranath Tagore took great care to write intimate letters to his friends and family. The sheer literary quality of those apparently simple letters elevate the act of letter-writing to a definitive art-form. On the occasion of his 156th birthday, we would present a collage of his selected letters complemented with his songs and dance. It is our sincere and humble effort to rediscover ourselves in discovering Tagore, again, in a new way.

With the current trends in technology and increased importance being given to Arts in combination with technology, we introduce the STEAM based Crafts and BotsTM workshop for little innovators this summer.



Crafts and Bots is a combination of Craft work and Robotics. Here the students will be encouraged to think out of the box and develop gadgets and models using things around them like cardboard and thermocol in combination with EtchBricks. EtchBricks are Electronic building blocks which can be plugged in to each other to build amazing interesting projects without the need for programming, soldering or any prior knowledge in electronics.



Using EtchBricks anyone can build projects without the need of a computer. Instead children will be building a very small computer of their own which takes inputs and gives relevant outputs. This circuit in combination with Arts and Crafts help students build amazing models. With the simplicity of building projects, children as young as 7+ years can build, make and innovate amazing creations using EtchBricks.

The short term summer workshop will have the following impact on students

1. Students will be taught, how the basic gadgets around them work.

2. How they can make gadgets on their own using the material around them in combination with EtchBricks; using concepts of STEAM which is Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math.

3. Students will be encouraged to think on their own, discuss and build projects, which will put their creative thinking, group activity and problem solving skills to use.

4. With just a short term workshop, students will gain confidence that they can build interesting projects using things around them.

The talk will concentrate on how the revolution occured and its consequences! It will also explore future possibilities for the socialist idea.

SPEAKER:
Dr.V.Janardhan is a professor at the Department of Sociology, University of Hyderabad. His research interests include industry and labour, and business studies. He has been a keen student of labour for nearly two decades now. As a researcher primarily but also in a limited sense as an activist, he has been associated with trade unionism in premier industrial metropolises in India.

CONTEXT:
It is hundred years since the Bolshevik revolution happened! But when it happened it shook the world and also shook many ideas, beliefs and prognoses. According to orthodox Marxian theory it was not supposed to happen there. But it happened due to certain peculiar or unique material conditions in Russia at that time, AND, in significant measure due to the presence of one man – LENIN.

Lenin took the revolution when it happened, to another phase, in the direction of socialism and communism. He was for speeding up the process of the ‘stages of history’ by immediate transcendence from a nascent capitalism in Russia to consciously building socialism, under the aegis of a workers’ state and a Party that held power in the name of the working class. The latter was not exactly the most numerous class then but by Marxist doctrinaire understanding the most ‘progressive’ class historically.

The working class, controlled by the Party which also would dominate the state apparatus, was to push towards socialism. The movement eventually went towards a totalitarian state and society, a movement which can be dubbed as ‘from Lenin(ism) to Stalin(ism)’.

These were all crucial deviations from orthodox/classical Marxism. The Russian/Bolshevik revolution attracted severe philosophical, theoretical and ideological criticism from several other Marxian tendencies.

We, The Wings creations, a team of independent film makers want to show case our films. The films talk about social issues like acid attacks, suicides, deforestation, children rights and hunger and LOVE. It is a open to all event.

Riding on a Sunbeam: Journeys through Space, Time, Life and Love … is a special and exciting travel film that follows Mauktik Kulkarni (an Engineer turned Neuroscience student turned Zen traveler) and Sammy Jo (a Berkeley undergrad taking a gap semester) … in an unconventional touristy way.

Playfully, abundantly and on occasions, acutely, they explore the contradictions of our Indian society with interesting perspectives … exploring economically developed places alongside backward regions, staunchly nationalistic mind sets side by side with the insurgency prone pockets and the socially conservative elements that co-exist with countless liberal lifestyles … All within the same India.

Through smaller stories experienced throughout with the eyes of the two protagonists … Mauktik, who now turns to his own country and Sammy, who has never seen India before. The film creates a mosaic of India that is at once exhilarating, reflective, enchanting and laughable … in a way that has rarely been seen before.

Director: Brahmanand S Siingh is an award-winning filmmaker (producer-director) and writer based out of Mumbai. His latest film, Kaagaz Ki Kashti (Paperboat … 126 mins), a biopic on legendary ghazal maestro Jagjit Singh, just ready for take-off, is already sailing on appreciative waves. His National-Award winning (among many other awards and accolades) feature-length documentary on RD Burman, Pancham Unmixed: Mujhe Chalte Jaana Hai, (113 mins) continues to enjoy an amazing, sweeping cult, critical and popular acclaim across viewing platforms.

Other recent feature documentaries like Riding on a Sunbeam: Journeys through Space, Time, Life & Love (108 mins), a fascinating travel documentary on the way non-touristy India presents itself to us; Through Our Eyes (85 mins), a group of batch-mates from a premiere Institute looking back at their elliptical journey of 25 years while continuing to dream ahead are also being extremely well-received. Even his earlier, somewhat shorter works like Ragpickers; Uncaging the Body (Apsara Award for Best Short Film, 2003-2004); A Burden of Love (on Alzheimer’s disease); Ashgari Bai (on an octogenarian legendary dhrupad singer) and a whole lot of other short, corporate and documentary films have drawn great response, highly recognized for its sensitivity, authenticity and engaging quality.

Siingh often brings out an insightful, exploring and reflective quality in the subjects that excite him, bringing out its core essence in a soulful and captivating manner. Many of his films have been screened at various International film festivals as well as on national and international television channels, and have been nominated for and won, national and international awards. He has also been invited to be on the Jury on International Film Festivals and is a consultant on selection of films in many film festivals and award platforms.

Currently, Singh is producing and directing another feature documentary, Quawwali: A Soulful Flight and developing a feature project, Jhalki … Ek Aur Bachpan (A Different Childhood) … the International buzz for which is already considered very high. He has also initiated a path-breaking venture — a series of well-researched, grippingly-told, tastefully-presented and thoroughly-distributed Biopics under Mobius Biopics Pvt Ltd.

Male protagonist: Mauktik Kulkarni, Executive Producer and co-anchor of Riding on a Sunbeam, is an engineer-turned-neuroscientist and is an entrepreneur at heart. He has been a part of two successful startups and is currently co-founder of a third startup named Wazzat Labs. He is an author, film maker, public speaker and traveler who has backpacked through more than 50 countries. His first book ‘A Ghost of Che,’ a memoir based on his solo, 8000km motorcycle trip in South America, was published in 2009 and he is working on his second book based on his one-year, round-the-world trip. He has delivered invited lectures on neuroscience, entrepreneurship, traveling, film-making and anything else that strikes his fancy. He has been a guest columnist for travel/sports and, over the past few years, gotten into film-making. ‘Riding on a Sunbeam,’ his first film project, is a backpacking film about India directed by National-award winner Brahmanand Singh. He is currently working on his second film project, which is a feature film adaptation of his book.

Female protagonist: Samantha Jo Fitzsimons is the female protagonist of the film, Samantha (Sammy) has backpacked through more than 10 countries even at a young age of 22 years. She has recently completed her degree in Premed and Anthropology at UC Berkeley. She also did a minor in music. Before joining this film, she has tried her hand at acting, modeling and has studied film-making as well.

A panel discussion (1hr discussion + 1hr Q&A) on the ocassion of International Hawkers day! Focus on sustainable consumerism and the contribution of a hawker in the value chain. Entree free for all.

SPEAKERS:
1) T. Vijayendra - Environmentalist & Ex-Trade Union Activist (Sustainability in Value chains & Importance of Hawker)
2) Sudharshan Rao - Trade Union Activist (Challenges & rights of Hawker)

CONTEXT:
Hawkers deserve support from other sections of people who benefit from their activities, as hawkers form an important section of the working class. They provide important consumer goods and services for ordinary people at affordable cost. Some times when they sell seasonal fruits, members of the upper classes also buy from them because they are fresh.

They form an important link in the chain of sustainable consumerism. Their prices are low because their over heads low. The hawker or his family does the procurement, processing or cooking themselves. They have low or zero inventories costs
Even though their prices are low, people still haggle for prices because the buyers are also poor. People don't haggle when they buy from big stores. Still in some cases, like hawkers selling tea or idlis from bicycle, the prices are fixed.

Traditional mass manufacturing methods resulted in the growth of retailing and hypermarkets. Such a value chain is mainly responsible for the excessive acquistion of consumer goods in the society. Theres a need to reconfigure these supply chains to achieve sustainability benefits. Hence, Hawkers and decentralized production chains are to be encouraged.

Hawkers face harassment as there are various channels of corruption through both govt. and non-govt. bodies, where hawkers end up paying space rent illegally.

With the current trends in technology and increased importance being given to Arts in combination with technology, we introduce the STEAM based Crafts and BotsTM workshop for little innovators this summer.
Crafts and Bots is a combination of Craft work and Robotics. Here the students will be encouraged to think out of the box and develop gadgets and models using things around them like cardboard and thermocol in combination with EtchBricks. EtchBricks are Electronic building blocks which can be plugged in to each other to build amazing interesting projects without the need for programming, soldering or any prior knowledge in electronics.
Using EtchBricks anyone can build projects without the need of a computer. Instead children will be building a very small computer of their own which takes inputs and gives relevant outputs. This circuit in combination with Arts and Crafts help students build amazing models. With the simplicity of building projects, children as young as 7+ years can build, make and innovate amazing creations using EtchBricks.
The short term summer workshop will have the following impact on students
Students will be taught, how the basic gadgets around them work.
How they can make gadgets on their own using the material around them in combination with EtchBricks; using concepts of STEAM which is Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math.
Students will be encouraged to think on their own, discuss and build projects, which will put their creative thinking, group activity and problem solving skills to use.
With just a short term workshop, students will gain confidence that they can build interesting projects using things around them.
This experience will help them think differently and make contribution to various national level science fairs along with students from various other schools.
Workshop Format: 1. Though we believe in Group Activity, we are very seriously concerned over individual learning. So there is NO group sharing of kits, each kid builds his/her own project. This allows each student gaining confidence to build and make along with bringing shy students to take a forward step who otherwise will be hidden in larger groups.
The students will be allowed to think practically and implement their own ideas. Once they get an understanding of the EtchBricks Kit, they will be confident and curious enough to build on their own.
A competition will be conducted at the end of the workshop based on a theme, the winner will be provided with an appreciation award and an interesting gift.
FEES: This is a free workshop meant to spark creativity in girls. As most of our events are dominated by boys. We want to make it clear that girls are equally good at it.

THE PARTICIPATION FOR THIS EVENT IS BY PREREGISTRATION. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED TO PARTICIPATE PLEASE REGISTER IN THE LINK PROVIDED AT THE END OF THE DESCRIPTION
Conversations on Education is planned as a series of dialogical events to together explore the idea of education and its connection to our lives, aspirations, notions of work/employment and also engage with the implications of this with our own predicaments as learners, parents, teachers or even employers. We also hope to explore the possibilities available through more convivial educational opportunities/options available.
At this session we hope to examine some of the myths of the schooling system that we have all internalized. Can we, individually and collectively, look within and ponder over what is it that we have to root out of our belief system and explore what that change will translate into for myself (if I am a student), my child (if I am a parent) and for my students (if I am a teacher). 

This event is the second of the series . Please register here for participation in the discussion

And most of the internet is visual. We process visual information 60,000 times faster than any text which makes Visual Communication a very effective tool in the modern age. 80% of the learning happens visually but most of our education system focuses on the written word. Visual literacy is important to be an effective communicator irrespective of career choice.
