There's no question that raising interest in science and technology among students, even very young ones, is an important task for any school system. The question is how - textbooks and diagrams on the blackboard often do little to ignite students' imagination. That's one reason why several organisations - including the Czech Brain Project - put their heads together to take science out of the classroom and into the streets, where kids could enjoy hands-on technology. For two days trains, model airplanes, and yes - robots - took over the city to children's delight.
