Organisation of CBSE Science Exhibition 2011

The purpose of Science exhibitions is to develop scientific attitude in the young generation of our country to make them realize the interdependence of science, technology and society and the responsibility of the scientists of tomorrow. These objectives may be achieved by presenting the exhibits as an exciting experience of creativity of children, innovations through improvisations of science kits, and various devices and models for providing solutions to many present and future socio-economic problems particularly those confronted in the rural areas, using available materials and local resources.

The exhibitions will help children and teachers to learn from each other experiences and motivate them to design and develop something new and novel. It will also provide a medium for popularizing science and increasing awareness among the public towards it. The objectives of organizing science exhibitions may briefly be put as follows:

  • Stimulating interest in science and technology and inculcating scientific spirit in younger generations;
  • Exploring and encouraging scientific and technological talent among children;
  • Inculcating in them a sense of pride in their talent;
  • Providing exploratory experiences, encouraging creative thinking and promoting creative thinking and promoting psychomotor and manipulative skills among children through self devised exhibits or models or simple apparatus;
  • Encourage problem solving approach and developing the appropriate technologies, especially for rural areas and integrating scientific ideas with daily life situations;
  • Popularizing science among masses and creating an awareness regarding the role of science and technology in socio‐economic and sustainable growth of the country;

The Board has initiated many steps in the recent past to provide such experiences. One such step refers to organisation of Science Exhibitions at Regional and National levels.
