FILMS & AUDIO FOR SCIENTIFIC TEMPER

Since 2012, we screen life-story films on formal as well as grassroots technological innovations from the hinterland of India with students. It has been our major activity which attempts to aid and enrich learning of scientific concepts. We called it as Search For Truth And Return To Science through Films and Audio for Scientific Temper (START FAST).
