Our work with Govt. Schools in Chromepet
We are presently working with the following three Higher Secondary Schools (HSS) in and around Chromepet:
-
Municipal HSS, Hastinapuram
-
Govt. Boy’s HSS, Chromepet
-
Govt. HSS, Zamine Pallavaram
Our work with these schools consists of 3 broad types of activities:
A. Providing assistance to the students of Class 11 and 12 in their subjects of study such as Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Computer Science, English. For this our Fellows from MIT visit the schools during 4.30 – 6.00 PM on working days and engage with the students who have been identified by the schools. Some pictures of our volunteers assisting the students of these three schools can be seen here.
B. Conducting Computer/IT Training Programs for Class 11 and 12 students in the MIT Computer Centre Lab during 9.00 – 12.00 on Saturdays. An open-ended list of topics taken up in these classes are given here. Around 70 students from these three schools have been participating in these hands-on classes from 6th July 2024 , and they are given Tea/Snacks in the morning and Lunch at noon. Some snaps of the Lab classes can be seen here.
C. Taking up wall/mural paintings in schools, engaging with interested students in music, arts, skits, videography etc.
