The Council of Scientific and Industry Research (CSIR) in India and the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) signed an MoU to connect students and scientists via the “Jigyasa” program back in 2017. Now, the CSIR has introduced the first-ever virtual science lab in India to help students interact and connect with scientists across the country and learn about science and technology right from their homes.

Now, coming to the kinds of content that students can access on the CSIR Virtual Lab, there are a lot. There are educational games, comics, simulations, videos, and other interactive content that could help students learn about the basics of science and technology.

The platform also contains other forms of educational content such as educational comics and graphic novels, simulations and videos of various scientific activities, and infographics content to help students explore and learn about the vast universe of science and technology.

Now, coming to the language support on the CSIR Virtual Lab, the platform currently only supports English, which means that all the content is in the English language as of now. However, as per the ministry, support for Hindi and other regional languages will be added to the platform in the coming days.
