" Jago Engineer Jago "
( A national campaign to create awareness about engineering
discipline among the youth and the people )
" Jago Engineer Jago " is a campaign planned to be launched so as to make the discipline of Engineering and engineering to regain its nobleness among the youth . It is unfortunate that despite producing largest number of engineers in India, people are not aware of what ENGINEERS do and what Engineers are supposed to be doing.
It is my personal experience that..most of the engineering students do not know who is / are the greatest engineer( s ) of India.. Is it not S A D ! Further, even best engineering students do not / cannot recall BEST engineering marvels in India !
We feel there is need to build awareness about engineers and the work they do. This will motivate the new generation of youngsters to get attracted to Engineering discipline.
When this campaign will be launched ?
We are choosing - Engineers Day - as the best day to launch this campaign..
This event " Jago Engineer Jago " will be launched coinciding with Sep 15.. Engineers Day.... Which is birth day of one of the Greatest Engineer of India. Bhrath Ratna Mokshagundam Vishveshwarayya who is proudly called Sir M V..
The campaign caption for this program will be..
" I will also become a
engineer like Sir M V "
My Bhee Sir M V
Jaisa Engineer bhanoonga !
What the campaign will involve .. ?
Engineering students in the country are motivated to campaign about Engineers and Engineering on this day. Engineering students are assigned to campaign one of the wonderful educational toy ( which has got the BEST of engineering principles embedded as part of it ) at a affordable price. The educational toy will targeted to school going students. Educational toy will have relevant slogan for school going students viz., - I will be Sir M V One Day..
Engineering college students by campaigning the educational toy will ( 1 ) learn about Sir M V, ( 2 ) Help and motivate school going students of who is Sir M V and why to become Sir M V.. ( 3 ) Help the students to understand some interesting engg. principle through the educational toy that is campaigned for them.
What are the benefits of this kind of campaign ?
Young students are helped to understand of Sir M V. and motivated to emulate Sir M V ..
Engineers day will be celebrated with much more interest and involvement by the Engg. College students
People in general need to await for Engineers Day just because of educational toy that is being campaigned as part of Engineers Day..
Why educational toys are being campaigned by the students ?
The issue here is.. how to share a message about engg. in a most effective way to most of young students is the issue.
Something concrete is needed to carry this message. Further, how young people can connect and re collect about engineering in a concrete shape, and size so that people do not forget about engineering so easily..
These are the questions what we addressed in arriving a engg. related educational toy as best medium for this.
We believe that a good engineering toy which any student can play with and understand engineering principles are selected and used as campaign toys in Jago Engineering Jago program
What are the benefits of this kind of campaign ?
Educational toys having special features will be picked up for this event..
- Toys which extreemly interesting engrossing, and engaging the young talent in learning their academic subjects
