6. NIE-Workshop NIE-Workshop is responsible for augmenting quality improvement in teaching–learning in the field of school education. It is supporting print media through hands-on experience by design, development and prototype production of school equipment in the form of kits. The department also provides hands-on training to students/ teachers/teacher-educators on the use of various kits produced by the NIE-Workshop. It also imparts training in plastic processing and in various trades for apprentices. The NIE-workshop has been engaged in the designing, development, experimental field trials and production of teaching-learning equipments (kits). Besides this, it trains teachers/teacher-educators on the use of kits and apprentices in different trades coming from technical institutions. It conducts various extension activities, viz hands-on activities in science and technology and participation in annual Jawaharlal Nehru Science Exhibition for the Children. The NIE-Workshop continues to design, develop and produce not only demonstration kits but also cost effective students’ kits to support textbooks, create interest and joy of learning at all levels of school education. The department has started programmes to strengthen laboratory practices through developing laboratory kits capable of replacing traditional costly laboratories. In keeping with the spirit of NCF-2005, the NIE-Workshop visualises to bring out more students kits, apparatus and relevant publications for all levels of school education. It also visualises capacity building activities for the SCERTs/DIETs faculty to initiate hands-on activities down to cluster and block resource centres through face-to-face training, uploading information on the NCERT website, developing video guides etc. Major Activities RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Review of Existing Primary Science Kit (PSK) and its Further Development in the light of fresh Textbooks A new proto-type of Primary Science Kit has been developed and field tested with Annual Report 2010-11 Annual Report 2010-11
