Opis

Teaching of innovation skills to school children is being recognized as an important component of the curriculum for the 21st century and some initiatives in this regard have already been taken by the National Innovation Council in southern India. According to the Council "Innovation involves thinking differently, creatively and insightfully to create solutions that have an impact in terms of social and economic value". In the present study innovation implies the generation of new ideas and their application to yield useful products or services, working individually or in a team. This study has been taken up as an endeavor to design a programme to systematically integrate Innovation Skills in the Secondary School Curriculum.
