Nature Through Mobile

In order to contribute to the scientific community, gone are those days when the only individual with white coats, inexpensive laboratories, bring specimens, identify, sketch and document it. With the advent of technology and massive adoption of smartphones, every child, adult or citizen now carries a Science laboratory in their pocket. Kids learn how tools like mobile photography, apps and various other mobile tools can make a child become a well-equipped citizen scientist and contribute to the scientific community.

Highlights of the program

Introduction to photography
Introduction to nature documentation
Introduction to citizen science

Mango education... I felt so proud when I saw the article for photography exhibition in the Metro newspaper as picture clicked by my daughter was there. I don’t know if it is possible to convey in words the sense of gratitude I feel when you selected her as an official photographer to cover an event. You have inspired my daughter to achieve at a level higher than I thought possible. Your guidance and encouragement during the photography sessions was invaluable — without it Alifiya surely wouldn't have been able to achieve her passion. Special Thanks to Aasif Anna and Priyanka mam. For that I am forever thankful.

Rohan had never held a camera in his life. At Mango Education he learnt to see the world through the lens, to fix his subject within a frame and freeze them for time! He explored life and the beautiful colours of nature up close as he had never done before! From the fluttering butterflies of TNAU to the exotic birds of Nigiris’ Biosphere, Mango Education opened the doors to a new world to explore! It has been an enriching experience for him. I would recommend this to children who have varied interests. The initiative by the “bunch of engineers turned educators” as Mango Education team calls themselves has to be truly appreciated.
