Space Science Testimonial
During the COVID-19 pandemic ,as a student with no
school there was nothing to do .My life usually revolved
around school and school work but when there was no
school,there was nothing to do.That was the time I found
out about the Givemefive’s online courses.It was so
wonderful to have something to do .Space science was
something we would never get to learn in school. It had
a very interactive and dedicated teacher who was ever
ready to answer your questions no matter how many
you ask or how much sense it actually made. The thing
which made the course special was it’s content ,it had a
very well refined and interesting content.I personally
would never have imagined in my wildest dreams how a
satellite worked or how a rocket contributed in the
launch of satellites.A very special feature about this
course was the activities the portions had to offer,even if
you don’t understand theoretically you can always rely
on activities like gravity and orbits which shows the
importance of the balance between gravity and
centrifugal forces! We got fun and interesting
assignments which made you think in a hundred
different angles. We have a quiz at the end of the
session which made it a point, for us to stay focused
throughout the session.The others who took the course
with me were from other parts of the world which made
me very happy because I had connections with people
from other parts of the world.Which gave me access to
different cultures and learning methods .Taking the
course with other people made it a lot more interesting
as other people have other ways of thinking .You get
answers to doubts you never thought about. The course
not only gave knowledge about satellites and space
stations it also answers questions such as, why our
solar system is completely in order?It gives us
information about the history of humans in space.It also
gives us information about different space agencies from
around the world and rules and regulations space
agencies have to follow.I had never given satellites and
space much of thought before this course but as it
started I relate everything to space.Finally this course
has given me immense knowledge about the space in
the best way I could learn which any book or the internet
could never give.
