Techspecto, an initiative by IEEE SIGHT MEA SBC, is lighting up the tech world for 8th-grade students at Irshad School in Melattur. On September 14, 2023, from 11 AM to 1:30 PM, young minds embarked on an educational journey. Mr. Hashim introduced them to the basics of C programming, a crucial skill in the digital age.
Adding a futuristic touch, Mr. Mohammed Basim delved into the wonders of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), igniting curiosity and creativity. The highlight was hands-on learning, where students applied their knowledge to build innovative projects under the guidance of Ms. Fathimath Hanan. With a remarkable 1:3 mentor-to-student ratio, personalized mentoring was the icing on the cake, ensuring no one was left behind. Techspecto is more than a program; it’s a stepping stone towards a brighter, tech-powered future for these young minds. Stay tuned for more exciting phases ahead!
We need technology in every classroom and in every student and teacher’s hand, because it is the pen and paper of our time, and it is the lens through which we experience much of our world.
