Workshop on Hand on Optics:
This workshop will train attendees on the use of Terrific Telescopes, a hands-on activity kit intended to engage and enrich the math/science learning experience for students in the middle grades. It was developed as part of HOO, a four year program funded by a $1.7 million dollar grant from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) to design and implement a science enrichment program for students.
The instructor for the workshop will be Mr. Dirk Fabian (Student Services Lead, SPIE).
Presentations from each chapter:
The invited chapter representatives will be sharing their activities and other related stuff in their respective chapters. This will again give an excellent scope for all the chapters work in hand in hand in future and will pave way for greater communication between us.
Company Talks:
This particular session is being held to give the students a feel of what the companies are into. The companies will also be talking about possible career opportunities in their respective companies.
Apart from the technical events, we will organize a trip to a local tourist place in Singapore.
