Learning By Making

We in India are busy boasting about our economic growth rates and geopolitical rise but have lost sight of the deep weakness of our society. Our political and social system, for their provisional and personal benefits have been always running behind increasing Literacy Rate for showing development in Education. But, we strongly believe that Creativity now is as important in Education as Literacy, and we should treat it with the same status. So, literacy rate without any index of innovation and creativity might not be a sustainable model for 21^st Century Education System. It is widely known that India is falling behind in educating students in the fields of Science, Technology, Education, and Mathematics (STEM) in respect of Research and Innovation. We are here to put full of our efforts to grow a generation of students who are “makers of things, not just consumers of things.”  In technology-based fields such as Engineering, rural students are shockingly underrepresented to the environment of Making, Tinkering and DIY. There is also another problem in technological fields. Often, rural students are not given the opportunity to engage with STEM subjects in a fun, hands-on manner. This lack of opportunity to spark interest in technology limits their desire to pursue STEM careers and is part of the reason why they are so underrepresented in technology-related fields. The rural area students lack the proper resources for proper education and upbringing. We believe that we can get a lots of inventors and entrepreneurs from these areas if given proper guidance. We will not solely concentrate on the rural areas but also target the schools and colleges of the urban. So vounteers of MAKE INDIA will go to the students in primary schools and will teach them by learning by making.We need to democratize the tools and skills necessary to design and make anything from scratch, Make India Workshops and Make India Fairs at school level
