"Innovate, invent and implement" |
|
|
The thought is basically to make school children think over some cool innovative idea in IT domain, invent something new and implement those ideas either opting board development, or either make an application or simulation that reflects the idea. If the invention results in some hardware device, try to implement that. The major focus is on the idea considerably. |
|
|
The participants will be divided into 2 groups: |
|
|
| - |
Group 1: Comprising the students from grade V to grade VIII |
| - |
Group 2: Comprising of students from grade IX to grade XII |
|
|
|
ach participant will present their inventions to the external evaluators and explain them the innovative accomplishment, the externals evaluators will be the judges of the competition, who will decide the winners of the competition. There will be 5 winners in all. All the participants will get the certificates whereas the winners will get the price money, trophy in addition to the certificates. |
|
|
Therefore the idea is to present a board model, software application or hardware device. The participants can present in a group of 2-3 people or can present solely. |
