Education in India
ADIVI KARAWAT ‘25
In India, the education system is focused on rote memorization and academic grades which hinders the overall personality development of a student as there is less attention to practical knowledge. This is mainly because admission in some of the top colleges in India like Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) is solely based on academic performance and that one entrance exam decides a student’s future.

MycroActive Microscope
RISH KUMAR ‘24. TYLER RICHARDSON ‘25 & EMILY RANDOLPH ‘24
Under-resourced public school students in grades 5-8 and their
science teachers need increased accessibility to microscopes
because microscopes are a fundamental scientific tool that are
integral in students’ understanding of the world; but they are

maintain. MycroActive is a microscope outer shell that works in
conjunction with a website full of test slides to make the
microscope experience more interactive than virtual microscopes
and more affordable than traditional microscopes.
