Sabah Al-Ahmad Center for Giftedness Spreads Technological and Engineering Awareness Through Specialized Workshops at 'Oman Science Festival'

By Mahmoud Boushahri (Photo Report) Muscat, Nov 4 (KUNA) -- Through its educational programs and experimental activities, the Sabah Al-Ahmad Center for Talent and Creativity is raising awareness about the uses of technology and the concepts of artificial intelligence and engineering, via educational workshops it organizes in collaboration with the Kuwait Foundation for the Advancement of Sciences (KFAS) during its participation in the Oman Science Festival 2026, hosted by the Omani capital. The center’s booth, located within the KFAS pavilion, offers visitors, especially young students, the opportunity to build various modular robotic units that perform different functions, providing a hands-on experience that fosters engineering thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills in an engaging manner. Through the “STEM Racing” workshop, an educational initiative endorsed by the Formula 1 Union, visitors can learn about science, technology, engineering, and mathematics skills by designing, manufacturing, and racing miniature cars. Participants can also explore the principles of aerodynamics by assembling paper cars and testing them in a wind tunnel, within an interactive workshop that connects physics and engineering.
