Our Physics lab is well designed, spacious enough to accommodate around 30 students so that they may acquire skill and confidence in their measurement with accuracy. Manipulation of materials, tools, instruments, description of observations, ability to rationally defend their conclusions, reporting observations are learnt along with informal discussions in the lab. The role of Physics lab is central in residential schools as the students can construct their own understanding of Physics. This knowledge cannot be simply transmitted by the teacher but must be developed in the students by their interactions with natural processes, man-made machines and mechanisms. Meaningful learning occurs when lab activities are well- integrated into the learning sequence and experiments.
