Experimental education has often been proved to generate results that cannot be attained through conventional classroom instruction. Consequently, based on the success of all of our programmes at SSERD with students of all levels, we wish to introduce science to school children through the Cosmo Kit's spectacular experiments and challenges.

Fun in a Box!
Many smiles instilled,
many futures inspired,
many curious minds ignited
This is the inception of Cosmo-Kit, There is yet miles to explore
What the kit contains
Through the process of assembling and flying a glider, the students will learn the workings of an airplane and the essential components needed to make something that can fly
This map of stars customised to the geographical location of the schools will help students look and the sky and locate stars, constellations and planets
This hands-on worksheet will teach the students about different constellations through patterns and learn about the history behind them through stories
This enjoyable exercise will help students understand the physics behind the different phases of the moon by using torches and a thermocoal ball to mimic how the moon appears throughout month
This DIY activity will help the students learn about the physics behind gravity and forces and teach them about safe landings of payloads and astronauts
The Box of Wonders
This is a box of wonders filled with engaging experiments for children to conduct and learn about astronomy, aircraft, and other fascinating space-related topics. During past events of this programme, it was revealed that a major focus point is educating children to unlearn the myths they believe to be true, as well as basing everything taught on scientific fact.
Learning By Doing
The Program Idea
These kits will be funded completely via the generosity of philanthropic organisations, corporations, and governments seeking to provide young children from low-income areas with the opportunity and resources to pursue space-related careers as they mature.
The programme is not a replacement for school education, but rather a way to improve the classroom environment by including numerous methods of learning so that the students can acquire and remember information effectively.
This demonstrates the critical need for initiatives such as CosmoKit to reach as many rural schools in India as possible and provide students with the ability to move beyond myths and fables and learn real science.
Success with Cosmo-kit
The primary objective of SSERD is to assist kids in rural regions, kids from backward classes, students from government schools, kids of sex-workers and other minorities, who lack the necessary school supplies and facilities to understand mathematical and scientific ideas. Visual and Physical interactions with scientific topics will make their learning experience more entertaining and efficient. This project has been implemented effectively in several South Indian states, including Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Telangana. We collaborate with both public and private schools in these states that lack the resources or finances to provide their kids with such opportunities.
