DBTI-Makati Celebrates Science Week 2009

Posted August 4, 2009  


            The High School Department  of Don Bosco Technical Institute - Makati celebrated the 2009 Science and Technology Week from 27 to 30 July 2009 with the theme “Responding to Global Challenges through Science and Technology”.  The celebration sought to deepen the appreciation and understanding of the role of Science and Technology in modern global concerns as well as in the everyday life of people. This event also aimed at identifying the most important global challenges that needed to be prioritized, describing how these challenges were addressed in the past by Science and Technology and what remains to be done in the present, and identifying who should be involved in the process.



           This year, the celebration was conducted in five clusters: (1) the Science Entrepreneurship Festival sponsored by the Chemistry teachers, (2) the Inter-House Science Quiz Bee held in the Joy Center, (3) the Flora and Fauna Show Competition conceptualized by the Biology teachers, (4) the Balancing Act Via Frog Dance organized by the Physics teachers and (5) the various Science games facilitated by the General Science teachers. 

 

           The opening ceremony held in the Savio Dome recognized the winners of the Investigatory Projects for School Year 2008-2009.  The weeklong Science - Technology Exhibit was also opened for public viewing.  Deserving students were awarded medals and certificates of recognition last Monday,  03 August 2009.
