The students of Government Higher Primary School, Basaweshwara Nagar found the Foldscope a very useful tool for observing samples found in nature and to work on their curiosity. Most of the students were of the opinion that it would be good initiative if schools were given Foldscope as many schools don’t have access to microscope which is expensive.
