Innovation in Practice

Innovation in Practice is a team of motivated changemakers striving to address the issue of climate change and low access to learning tools (microscopes) in under-resourced communities.

Our team involves the following roles:

1. Model Designers: Work to improve the design and functionality of the microscope.

2. Marketing Team: Publicize the developmental process of the microscope, spotlight volunteers and community partners, and showcase the team's journey on our website, social media pages, and more. 

3. Logistics Team: Plan sessions with volunteers, get progress reports from the volunteers, and create a network of volunteers for easier connections.

4. Volunteer mentors: Teach volunteers the process of making the microscope and guide them throughout their journey in the project.

5. Volunteers: Learn how to make the microscope and then teach the students of our community partners how to make it.

We accept members at any time of the year.

 We learn, design, and teach grades 5 - 7 students in underfunded schools on how to create and use an eco-friendly microscope. They then use these microscopes for practicals in their science lessons which enriches their learning.

Alongside this, we address climate change by using materials such as cardboard, old pipes, and paper instead of metal to make the microscope eco-friendly.

Our current microscope design is as below:
