The classroom environment must allow them think freely and raise questions without fear so that they learn fast.

A professor from NIT Warangal, V Krishnamacharyulu explained about the importance of mathematics in nature explaining the achievements of Ramanujan. He wanted classroom teaching should be in a way that attracts students towards maths.

The science centre project officer S Srinivas, resource persons K Ram Gopal Reddy, Suresh Babu, Y Venkat Reddy, DIET principal Ravi Kumar and lecturer M Somaiah, KU professor Malla Reddy and others were present.
