Task?

Why this Training NOW ?

• 1 month to go - we got limited time
• Participation of Kerala students very low
• Students deprived of opportunity 
• INDIA need better Computer Engineers who know to code 
• Would be a huge addition to school records

Why this Training NOW ?

Performance of students outside India is incomparable

Is it already Happening ?

• Govindram Seksaria Science P.U. College, Belgaum -#2 among 397 schools worldwide with 49 completed tasks 

So

What is happening in schools now ?

• Undirected student clubs
• Excess priority given to arts and games ( not the situation with Amritavidyalayam ) 
• Difficult to handle a club, without affecting the student academics
