 Snapshot of ''In Search of Ramanujan''
Posted by Shanthi on Thursday, December 01 @ 03:23:17 EST (427 reads)
Introduction:
Most of the underprivileged children land up in blue collar jobs just after their X Std or XII Std. Most of them cannot even dare to dream of entering a College due to their constraints though they possess the potential. Through our Nurturing the Genius activity, we aim to give an opportunity to the underprivileged talented children to expose their talent and pursue higher education and frame their career on what they are best at. By doing what they are best at, they not only change their lifestyle but inspire as role models and instil hope and direction to their peers and future generations.
As a first step, we had launched the In Search of Ramanujan (Nurturing the Genius – Maths) project to identify and nurture the Maths genius hidden in the rural areas and underprivileged sectors.
With the required support in terms of
· free coaching
· useful reference books
· transport charges
· Talent search exams registration fees and travel expenses to the venue,
These underprivileged yet talented children can bring their dreams of higher education and a career in Maths to reality.

A Snapshot of ''Have fun with English''
Posted by shanthi on Sunday, July 24 @ 08:04:44 EDT (497 reads)
In rural areas, the children are taught in their native language. To be specific, in rural areas of Pondicherry, the rural schools follow Tamil medium. Guess what is one of the fundamentals that brought you to where you are now? Yes, the one what you are reading in - ENGLISH. This language opens the door to prospective careers, computers, web resources, technical books, magazines, foreign education and career opportunities and what not. (Atleast in India, that's the case) To peep throught the door of such avenues, these less privileged children need English. We had launched a career counselling programme for the rural children in Abishegapakkam on Februrary. Since they were Tamil medium students, we conducted the whole programme (Test, reports, counselling) in Tamil. That is where we identified the need for English. Furthermore, our plans of "Professional coaching for competitive exams", "Fun filled camps on subjects such as Maths, Science, Computers" and "Nurturing the genius" are not able to take off as basic knowledge of English is required.

A Snapshot of "Career Counselling"
Posted by shanthi on Sunday, July 24 @ 08:01:27 EDT (1040 reads)
Now we see a lot of career counselling done in schools. This is easily available for an urban child. Apart from the other hurdles they face, the rural children do not have the right orientation for what they are best at. Lot of children just pick up some profession what they are exposed to or just leave the choice to the fate. If this situation has to change, the individual should atleast know what direction of career and education would be best for him/her. Having this in mind, we set our steps to provide career counselling.

One guy called Subramani, who is a Marathon athlete from a poor family background approached us for sponsorship for his food and athletic training. That led us to ponder further into the state of talented athletes in rural areas. We found that the students of Zone 3 and Zone 4 of Pondicherry which comprises the rural areas of Pondicherry were not able to compete with the students of zone 1 and 2 (town areas of Pondicherry) for the following reasons:
