Science, in spite of its growth and spread today, fails to excite most people in our country. Even those familiar with some aspects of it look at it in a rather uninspired and mechanical way.

    This almost total alienation from science has been a result of the unimaginative and unexciting ways of teaching and presenting the subject. Generally there is little or no link between science being taught and things one sees around everyday. This too is generally true for the entire process of our education, aspecially at the primary stages.

    Srujanika has been trying to develop approaches that would help bridge this gap between science as taught and as experienced everyday and to apply this approach to other subjects as well. We have been trying to present science as less intimidating a topic and more enjoyable an activity in which any interested adult can get involved easily. Our efforts in this direction are being developed and shared through publications - particularly the periodical BIGYAN TARANG, contact programmes like teachers' workshops, children's camps, Tarang clubs etc. Every year we have been choosing a particular theme and developing writings, activities and programmes on the same to achieve maximum impact.
