PTTS aims to address the educational gap in India by improving physics education at the undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) levels. We focus on training motivated students and teachers, particularly from rural areas, to enhance critical thinking, inspire teaching, and foster upward academic mobility.
Since 2015, we have conducted workshops, schools, and training programs, reaching UG/PG students and teachers across the country.
Our flagship programs are intensive 2-3 week training sessions for undergraduate and postgraduate students. These programs include interactive lectures, collaborative problem-solving tutorials, and experimental physics courses designed to inspire critical thinking and hands-on learning. In addition to this, we conduct workshops for teachers to introduce modern teaching methods and active-learning pedagogies. We also organize shorter, region-specific mini-programs tailored to address local needs and challenges.
Our programs emphasize active learning, where theory courses encourage students to engage in interactive Q&A sessions and collaborative problem-solving activities. A key highlight is our experimental physics module, where students design and execute experiments on a challenging budget of Rs. 300. This approach fosters creativity and practical problem-solving skills. We also focus on diversity and inclusion by prioritizing the participation of women, rural students, and individuals from underrepresented regions.
These programs reflect our continued commitment to advancing physics education through innovative workshops, discussion meetings, and regional training initiatives.
