3d printing in schools
Tumblr media
3d printing in schools: This is a topic that will be everywhere in the coming decade just like the LED bulbs brought a revolution in many fields, similarly the next decade will be long due to 3d printing. So when we are teaching children many schools are studying 3d labs to teach them about a basic idea about 3d printing. 
Since we are on the topic of education, why not talk about 3d printing? More and more educational institutes are investing to set up a 3d lab or what its called as digital manufacturing lab. And why should not they invest?
One such school is St. Stephen’s School, Birati who has understood the importance of implementing 3d printing activities and projects in the school. They have understood the importance of learning these valuable skills that will help their students in the near future. 
Indeed as a student making their own 3d printing projects can really teach them about project management skills and team building.
The fields like mechanical and architecture have seen the most extensive use of  3d printing. 
So its evidently clear that if today the students learn about these skills from a very younger age then, of course, these skills are not going to go for a waste!
In fact, they are going to help them when they will pursue the field of 3d printing and digitization.
These skills are extremely interesting to learn. Its the pathway where students are going to build their future and career.
St. Stephen’s School, Birati is helping their children out by including these very innovative and fascinating technologies in their school. They are always concerning themselves for the betterment of the students not only when they are in school but even after that.

How to prepare for school exams?
Tumblr media
Exams! The word itself is a bit terrifying, isn’t it? Most students fear this word. But there is really nothing to worry about if they prepare for it in the right way! 
Whatever is taught in the classrooms and whatever is given as homework, the students should follow these carefully along with books and other consulting books.
We were discussing the matter with the chief coordinator Mrs.Joyeeta Saha, of St.Stephen’s school, Birati, she has informed us that after a chapter is completed it is very imperative and it is the way it is taught in St. Stephen’s School, Birati that every chapter is revised thoroughly. After the revisions are over it is very important to take the proper evaluation. The perfect way to take the evaluation is a class test. The class test provides knowledge to the teacher how the class has understood the lesson. The weak students are segregated and extra classes are taken for those students to improve the grasp of a particular subject. 
They are also arranging extra classes for students who are in need of a more thorough discussion for a particular topic. 
They are teaching them how to manage the time during exams. They are providing study and test materials for the preparation.
 Correct syllabus information is also necessary for the right preparation. The teachers make sure that the correct syllabus structure has been provided to the students. 
They are even arranging small quizzes in the classroom related to the syllabus topics. The students actively participate in it and along with that they even get to know where they are lacking in terms of the topics.
 St. Stephen’s School, Birati always says that revision is the key to get a good score in the exam. They prepare their students in these ways to get the most out of them.
