Jammu, June 25: Thirteen bright students from Delhi Public School (DPS) Jammu, representing Classes 6 to 12, showcased their talent and curiosity at a week-long STEM Workshop hosted by the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Jammu from June 16 to June 22, 2025.
The participants - Mahir Singh Datta, Saanvi Kalra, Atharav Mahajan, Abhiuday Gupta, Vardaan Rastogi, Avnee Gupta, Adway Jamwal, Vighnesh Sharma, Aayush Silwal, Nizam-ul-Haq, Akshat, Rayarth Singh Datta, and Samrath - engaged in hands-on learning in Artificial Intelligence (AI), Python programming, machine learning, electronics, and real-world innovation.
The workshop began on June 16 with a session on Python programming, introducing students to coding fundamentals such as variables, loops, and control structures. On June 17, they explored Machine Learning (ML) and its real-world applications, while gaining familiarity with tools like NumPy and scikit-learn.
June 18 focused on Prompt Engineering, where students learned to design effective prompts for AI systems, including how parameters like temperature and top-k influence responses.
Following a brief technical break on June 19, the workshop resumed on June 20 with a practical session on Arduino and circuit design through the Tinkercad platform. Students built and simulated LED circuits while learning about digital logic and electronic components.
The workshop concluded on June 22 with live Physics Lab experiments, Arduino hardware projects, and an inspiring tour of IIT’s Photospace Lab, where students explored 3D printing technology. They also presented their final projects, demonstrating creativity and strong conceptual understanding.
Throughout the program, DPS Jammu students stood out for their enthusiasm, teamwork, and keen interest in technology. They shared that the experience expanded their knowledge and inspired them to explore the field of AI and electronics more deeply. Many expressed excitement about attending future workshops.
