There is a need to disseminate information about these developments among students at all levels.

Objective of TDCS: Main objective of TDCS is to use Engineering college students to disseminate information about emerging technologies among high School children both at Rural and Urban level. Exposure to these developments at high school level will not only motivate them to opt for higher studies in these areas but also prepare them for adopting these technologies smoothly and efficiently. TDCS will also provide a platform for the part ic ipat ing col lege students to experiment with different modern educat ional tools and use thei r innovativeness in using the tools effectively.
