In the bustling city of Bhopal, students from 230 different schools across 31 states and UTs have come together to showcase their brilliant ideas and innovations at the 52nd Children's Science Exhibition-2025, held at the Regional Institute of Education. The National Council of Educational Research and Training, in collaboration with state school education departments, has organized this exhibition. With over 900 students and teachers participating, a total of 240 science models and projects have been presented, each addressing a specific societal challenge. In order to learn more about these innovative creations, Free Press spoke with some of the students about their models.
One of the eye-catching exhibits at the event was the "Safety Boat - Titanic 2.0" presented by Lalita Khilla from Government High School, Malkangiri, Odisha. She explained that many rivers have catchment areas where boats often tilt due to uneven distribution of weight, putting human lives at risk. To combat this issue, her model has an alarm system that alerts passengers when the boat is overloaded, ensuring a safe evacuation. Additionally, air-filled sacks are used to maintain balance and prevent the boat from tipping over.
In other news, the MPBSE (Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education) has taken a unique approach to boost the results of class 10 and 12 students. They have introduced one-liners and mind mapping notes to make studying more efficient and effective. Another interesting exhibit at the exhibition was the "Farmers Protection Stick with Multipurpose Safety Tools" created by Mohammad Abdul Aziz Mohteshim and Syed Naimatullah Sufiyan Khundmiry from All Saints High School, Hyderabad. This smart stick is designed to assist farmers in their agricultural tasks. It includes a soil testing meter to measure moisture, pH, and light intensity, a solar-powered torch for low-light conditions, and a vibration alert with a buzzer to detect reptiles. It also has features like medication reminders and tools for safe electrical repairs, making it a compact and farmer-friendly device.
Moving on to the "Digital Tools to Solve Tomorrow's Problems" exhibit, presented by Kajal from Government Girls Inter College in Ghaziabad. This model addresses the growing concerns about road safety and accidents. It features a digital system installed in vehicles that connects multiple safety components, such as alcohol sensors and buzzers, to prevent drunk driving. It also tackles issues like driver drowsiness, collisions on mountain highways, and emergency response during accidents or injuries on the road, without causing harm to nature, animals, or individuals.
Last but not least, B Keerthi Sri from Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Gurukulam, Sarvepalli, Andhra Pradesh, along with the guidance of their teacher CH Kamakshamma, showcased a model demonstrating the practical application of trigonometry. This model explains how the concepts of angle of elevation and angle of depression can be used to calculate the height of objects that are otherwise inaccessible, such as buildings, trees, and temples. By using a clinometer and applying basic trigonometric ratios, this project provides a simple and reliable way to measure unknown heights without direct physical measurement.
It is truly inspiring to see the young minds of our nation coming up with such innovative ideas and solutions to real-world problems. These students have shown that with creativity, hard work, and guidance, anything is possible. We hope to see more of such brilliant exhibits in the future.
