25 NATIONAL CHILDREN’S SCIENCE CONGRESS

Vol-1. 2017-18

COMING TOGETHER OF YOUNG & BRIGHT CHILD SCIENTISTS

27th December, 2017


Ac�vity Corner/Technical Session

thMeeting with evaluators of 25 National Children Science

Congress was at SAL technical campus, evaluators had

interaction with each other.

Technical Discussion amongst evaluators:

Exchange of words with K P Madhu,Dr. Jayakara Bhandary,

and Chinmai Hemani

Discussion was based on language evolution and it's

processing. How letters of different languages were evolved

based on the pictorial representation of physical things within

environment . Cross cultural communication was discussed

in context of genetics. Apart from that, how psychological

state is affected by the multiple factors like environment,

weather, genetics etc. Furthermore Dr.K P Madhu added by

changing expression one's mood or feelings can be

changed.

In addition to that, how machine learning of character from

different regional language are discriminated in terms of their

angles of curves in letters.

The concluded message what we could extract is that the

letters what are being used through which the language is

built are based on environment so now it's our responsibility

to keep our environment fresh and more greener to prevent

the earth from pollution and other calamities.

NCSC Ki Baat

From Left to Right: Dipanksha Wadhva (Gurgaon, State of Haryana), Priya Pahwa (Ambala, State of Haryana), Muskan Arora (Karnel, State of Haryana), Mafi Madar (Karnal, State of Haryana)

We did three monkeys of gandhiji, along with that we have added one more monkey which says no to mobiles, as the young generations are very much into it which is taking them away from education and development.”

“ I am very happy to be a part of NCSC for the second time, this time it's very excellent service provided by the team of volunteers. They were right there from the Airport and they have provided excellent service. This

thbeing the 25 NCSC the facility so provided is excellent. “

“This is my third visit to NCSC, I have found that all the events that are been organised by NCSC are awesome. My experience of the entire past two events was superb, and I am looking forward to have same experience. Apart from that NCSC is a good program improving the excellence of Child Scientists.”

DO YOU KNOW THE NOBEL LAUREATES???????Name: Richard Thaler D.O.B: September 12, 1945 (Age 75)

In 2017, he was awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his contributions to behavioural economics. In its Nobel Prize announcement, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said that his "contributions have built a bridge between the economic and psychological analyses of individual decision-making. His empirical findings and theoretical insights have been instrumental in creating the new and rapidly expanding field of behavioural economics."

Thaler was the 2017 recipient of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for "incorporating psychologically realistic assumptions into analyses of economic decision-making. By exploring the consequences of limited rationality, social preferences, and lack of self-control, he has shown how these human traits systematically affect individual decisions as well as market outcomes."
