CHENNAI: There is always a need for dedicated scientific platforms where young school students and teachers can learn basic process skills and attitudes towards science such as observing, classifying, communicating, measuring, inferring, and predicting,” said State School Education Minister Anbil Mahesh Poyyamozhi, at the inaugural event of ‘Every Child A Scientist’ (ECAS) programme.
He also stressed on the need for organising more such programmes. The MS Swaminathan Research Foundation (MSSRF) and Larsen and Toubro have jointly organised the ECAS programme to ignite young minds from marginalised sections of the society. The inaugural event was held at the Sambasivan Hall of MSSRF here on Sunday.
