Earlier we visited to Paschim Mayong High (23/08/2018) and interacted with about 150 students but, what we found that explaining foldscope to such huge crowd would not be fruitful in two or three hours time. So, in Chandrapur High School (27/08/2018), we targeted 15 student each from Class 9 and 10. They were trained with two experiment to see cheek cells and onion cells. these students were given task to explain the foldscope to their fellow classmate. We have given one foldscope for this trial. After, one week the feedback would be collected from Principal of the school. During, the training three /four students were very active and could prepare very neat cheek cells smear slide. Girls were slightly slow as they were more concerned that their white chadar would get stained we they do it fast. Paschim Mayong girl students were much better in learning the instrument, they helped five groups to prepare onion cell temporary mount.
