Today: Man believes in science: He does not believe in God

Science promises nearly miracles. How to know about our universe, how to know about ourselves. How to know about every object. But science limit itself to what it sees and what it can empirically calculate. Its domain is whatever physical and visible to the naked eye and can be subject measurement scientifically. Science does not ask about the why question , it does not venture into the nature or essence of things.

It tells us about the physics of a movement, the structure of a cell, the chemistry of fluids, the biology of organs, the genetics of DNA, the anatomy of our bodies, the astrophysics about stars and galaxies. Simply it deals what can be visible and measured experimentally. It discovers the laws that govern and regulate our world. It informs us about how to use  mechanics in order to make use of it. It tells us what illnesses are there and how to treat these illnesses.

It informs us how to get to the moon, or make a major surgical operation on television. It tells us how the world evolutes and how man undergoes life and death. It touches on a superficial aspect of what is observed, visual to our five senses and our calculating machines. But science is limited only to the how.

It deals with what is sensible as the essential and rejects whatever cannot be seen, or beyond the physical aspect of things. It never deals with ultimate questions such as the nature or essence of things, the presence of things like the universe or life or man. It does not deal with finalities for finalities cannot be treated in the laboratory of the scientist.

Whatever can be subject to experience and can be proven empirically is only accepted by scientists. Whatever cannot be subjected to chemical or physical analysis is rejected by science. Science studies and examines phenomena but never asks whether there is a Maker of phenomena.

It deals with mathematical laws and rules regulating galaxies and stars and planets but never pose the most simple question that seems evident to every human being namely, whether there is a designer and architect that has created things. It never asks the question concerning whether the universe, the subject of its investigation, was created or not, whether it is eternal or not.

Such queries remain mysterious and enigmatic for science cannot catch hold of a creator or a maker. A creator, hence is dismissed by science for it cannot subject the creator to laboratory analysis, and chemical analysis nor to biological intersession not to mathematical calculations.

Mathematics, the perfect science, as well as physics, chemistry, biological chemistry and even astrophysics, cannot figure out whether a maker is needed to make the universe or a creator is needed to create things as they are. These sciences, exact and applied, do not even venture into the origin of our universe, the control of the universe, the evolution and dilution of the universe.

God remains on another sphere of comprehension. But the scientist bent on his subject matter does not even ask himself about his own subject matter that enables him to spend his time and his life discovering , analyzing, examining, studying and concluding. He does not even ask himself how come such a subject matter came about?

Nor does he wonder what is this thing that it involves his time and attention, dedicating himself to its research, where did it come from, how come it is in his laboratory, what makes it what it is and whether there is a creator-designer for it. He does not ask himself about the structure of his subject matter whether or not there is a power or intelligence that brought things together and ordained their existence?

Scientists are blind mechanical robots they do not see more than the end of their noses.  Science reduces matter to atoms and hence every object being made of matter is made up of atoms. For matter to exist they have to be brought into existence. For things to be what they are, from an amoeba to stars and galaxies, they need to have their atoms put together, assembled together to be what they are.

Atoms must be created first and then put together in such a way that they form and shape an object or a thing. Then atoms have to remain together in their form and shape and color, Otherwise they disintegrate and perish. Then they must be submitted to exact rules and power to evolute in the way they do.

The cycle of life of everything must be submitted to the structure and function of atoms to be what they are and to move and behave in they way they do. Random, hazard and chance is certainly not responsible for the creation of such a perfect universe, order and harmony. These cannot bring atoms to form galaxies, stars and planets. They cannot form our solar system nor our Milky Way.

They cannot bring about life and the two million species of animal life into existence. They cannot be responsible for the rotation of the earth. They cannot be responsible for the exact distance of the earth fro the sun and other planets. For left alone, without control and adjustment by its gravitation to the such and the other solar planets the earth would either approach to the sun and burn out or wonder outside its orbit and freeze out having no such to keep it alive.

Forces controlling the earth orbit in its place in our solar system keeping life and things as they are need more than chaos and disorder, hazard, chance and nature to do it. This is where the mind wonders to find out what science has missed out, big issues, big questions, all lead to the necessity of an all powerful and all knowledgeable and all commanding creator.

Since man did not contribute to the existence of the universe, nor to the presence of a fly, then there ought to be something, that is not subject to scientific investigation, that is God.

The scientist and his field of study, his subject matter, all, along side planet earth where the scientist lives and dies, where he is given the mind to see ( not all for that) are created and not creator.

But the scientist with his boastful arrogance of what science can discover, for science only discovers what is and never is able to create from nothing one single thing, remain in his closed shell, self-imprisoned shell, lurking in his cave of shortcomings and limitations and does not venture to go out of his dark cave of ignorance to explore the reality of everything, the universe, the earth, life and death and what has made things as they are.

The scientist thinks he is above God and make of himself a god while he is poisoned in his cage of experimental knowledge; He is blind to the fact that all knowledge does not come from him but from the creator of science and its subject matter, the scientist and the universe where the scientist is nothing but an atom surviving on a head of pin to discover what he ought to discover and to realize the existence of an almighty powerful creator.

How blind science can be? How limited science can be? This leaves the door for metaphysics wide open. Every individual asks himself ultimate questions, where science is silent and ignorant.

Everyone has the right and responsibility to know and know everything about the real reality of his presence, his origin and finality: in short, an explanation for his own existence and a purpose for his life.

Science does not even venture to deal with such questions. This, luckely, is the domain of a tool and source of knowledge open to evey individual person who has mind to think and heart to feel and eyes to see namely: Metaphysics.

Founded in 1964 as a way to encourage the “inventiveness” of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s staff, Yissum Research and Development Company seeks to support and encourage research, development and education in their efforts to turn science into commercial products for society. Yissum is charged with the not insignificant task of protecting HU’s inventions, products and technologies. Serving as the Technology Transfer Services for the university, Yissum focuses on the ongoing assessment, protection and commercial optimization of the university’s intellectual property.

In their 40-plus year history, Yissum has perhaps surpassed expectations, with reported annual revenues in excess of million, mostly from royalties, and properties ranging from long-shelf-life tomatoes to treatments for cancer and Alzheimer’s disease, placing the Hebrew University in the world’s top 15 academic institutions as measured by revenues from intellectual property sales.

Protect, Partner, Perform

As the Technology Transfer University for HU, Yissum serves not only to protect the university’s intellectual properties, but also to partner with researchers and worldwide businesses to develop commercial markets, and through licensing, establishing companies, joint ventures and collaborative research, enhance the market value and performance of HU’s discoveries, increasing their availability to a global marketplace.

The arrangement has a track record of success. Hebrew University generates approximately billion in annual sales from products in its IP base and Yissum represents over 250 licensed technologies and 60 spin-off companies. The numbers keep adding up with over 3,000 ongoing research projects, 1,200 researchers, 1,400 registered patents and 5 Nobel laureates, all representing 40% of Israel’s civilian scientific research. The range of intellectual properties includes a diverse mix of industrial and therapeutic areas, including biotechnology, nanotechnology, medical research and technologies, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and nutrition, water and environmental technologies, computer science and software development, homeland security and more.

The seemingly endless supply of promising research projects come from the university’s research base; supported by an annual budget of over million, allowing Yissum to take advantage of Technology Transfer Opportunities by identifying appropriate commercial partners, negotiating license agreements, creating spin-off companies and working closely with local and global commercial partners.

Recent news items focus on the medical arena, with HU’s concept of using cellular technology to send X-rays and other medical diagnostics. The new technology would allow for the use of a smaller, less expensive and easier to use Data Acquisition Device (DAD) at remote patient sites, which would be connected via cell technology with advanced image reconstruction at a central site. The implications are far-reaching and could serve to bring advanced medical technology into areas that otherwise could not afford to have it at their disposal; bringing MRIs, X-Rays and other medical diagnostics into rural and third-world areas.

Technologies Supported

Reading through Yissum’s list of products and companies is like reading a Who’s Who directory of the medical and technological worlds. The lists are full of recognized names, successful products and companies that make headlines on a regular basis.

Products from Yissum include Alzheimer and dementia treatment Exelon, dry-eye treatments Cationorm and LO2A (Lacrycon, Dropyal), ovarian cancer treatment Doxil (Caeylx), UV-protection product UV-Pearls-already adopted by major companies for sunscreens and cosmetics, and a variety of other pharmaceutical products. Oh, remember those long-shelf-life tomatoes? That would thanks to BonTom Vegetable Breeding and Research Group, from HU, of course. Another agricultural product from Yissum and Hazera Genetics is the Ram Onion. On the software side, there is Making Better Career Decisions, an interactive, Internet based career-guidance and information system.

Looking over a partial list of companies shows even more diversity, touching on pharmaceuticals, biotech, agriculture and irrigation, water treatment, software development, safety, nanotechnology, and medical technologies, research, development and devices.

Water treatment technologies like En Gibton Ltd and Treatec 21 Industries Ltd; agricultural endeavors Leafsen Irrigation Systems Ltd, Kovax Ltd-vaccines for the aqua culture world, Avian Tech Ltd, and Ravgalai Ltd-detection of antibiotic residues in milk, meat and food products are just the start of the list. Technology and software development come into play with Ex Libris Ltd-high-performance applications for libraries, Mobileeye Vision Technologies Ltd-with automated, on-board driver assist systems and MusicGenome Inc-a system of identifying musical taste based on artificial intelligence.

Perhaps the heaviest area of development is in the medical and pharmaceutical arenas with a long list of companies researching and developing treatments for cancer-including Algen Pharmaceuticals Inc-basically “tricking” cancer cells into “committing suicide.” Other treatment technologies focus on infectious and autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis and improving the efficacy of vaccines; even delving into the “nutraceutical” field with carriers for nutraceuticals to be incorporated in food systems and cosmetic formulations.

Technology Transfer Services

Yissum serves the Hebrew University, protecting its intellectual properties and moving forward with innovations and technologies into commercial endeavors, ultimately, serving the world community as well as the university through applied chemistry, physics, life science and biotechnologies, water technologies, nanotechnologies, and even veterinary medicine and agricultural technologies. It’s easy to see why Yissum is so highly regarded in the scientific and academic communities and ranks among the top Technology Transfer Services in the world.

Running Head: Breaking the Technology Barrier

Breaking the Technology Barrier: Using Technology in Education

Abstract

It has long been difficult for teachers to effectively communicate the objectives and goals in a fun and exciting way that reaches the students.  In the changing times teachers need to find ways to include students into the lesson using the technology made available to them. It has long been believed that teachers need to get over their fear and use technology openly with students in order to meet their educational needs. By including students into the lessons teachers will experience a more positive classroom experience.

 Breaking the Technology Barrier: Using Technology in Education

            Technology and education have always seemed to go together. In order to prepare students for the workplace or college they need to be able to be exposed to it. Teachers in the classroom use technology believing that the students are gaining valuable information and retaining the concepts taught but in reality the students need to be involved in the lesson and actively participating in activities that include technology. Student engagement is critical to student motivation during the learning process. The more students are motivated to learn, the more likely it is that they will be successful in their efforts. (Beeland, 2002).

Uses of Technology

            There are numerous uses of technologies that are available to teachers to include students into the classroom’s lesson. These include Interactive Whiteboards, Proximas, PowerPoint games, interactive DVDs, Ventrilo chat software, Myspace, Blackboard, and scavenger hunts. To put the uses of technology into an effective practice, teachers need to help students set achievable goals; encourage students to assess themselves and their peers; help them to work co-operatively in groups and ensure that they know how to exploit all the available resources for learning (Hall, 2006). The following are how some technology is used to help students learn.

Interactive Whiteboards

            There are two different types of whiteboards. The first is a virtual version of a dry erase board. It allows students to see what the instructor or other students write or draw using a special pen. The second functions similar to a normal whiteboard but also contains a projector screen, an electronic copy board or as a computer projector screen on which the computer image can be controlled by touching or writing on the surface of the panel instead of using a mouse or keyboard. They function by connecting a projector to the whiteboard panel with the use of a computer and software. It is important to know the different functions in order to determine which whiteboard is right for the educator. By knowing the difference you can also learn the terminology and understand the basic functions of each.

Proximas and PowerPoint

            PowerPoint is a software program that is being used in the classroom as a tool to incorporate learning activities into the curriculum. PowerPoint enables teachers and students to actively create presentations with graphics, charts, diagrams, and pictures in their slideshows to help make often complicated ideas and lessons more manageable and understandable. It is a way for students to engage in research, and present information to their peers. When students are actively learning, taking an active role in the learning process, they seem to understand the information better, and enjoy the lesson. The use of a game also allowed Jones and Mungai to directly address the learning style needs of the visual (58%) and tactile learner (22%), which represents eighty-percent of those involved in the content related courses. When constructed with different learning styles in mind, games can often accelerate the learning process (Jones & Mungai, 2003). By itself PowerPoint is not a cure-all remedy, but rather a tool that needs to be understood and used properly for it to be effective as an active learning tool. It also has shown that students that did use PowerPoint as a learning tool were more engaged in the discussions (Rowcliffe, 2003). This will encourage teachers to use PowerPoint as a way to involve students into a lesson by stimulating discussion. For PowerPoint to take place in a classroom an Interactive Whiteboard or a Proxima is needed. A Proxima displays a computer screen onto a screen much like a projector at a movie theater. The user is able to display items such as websites, PowerPoint, and interactive games. A way for students to interact using this technology is through games created by teachers and used in the PowerPoint lesson. Games such as Hollywood Squares, Jeopardy, and Who Wants to be a Millionaire are created using slides and links to answer the questions. Teachers may use a blank template and fill them with different answers for the students to use as a review. Teachers may even let the students create their own review using the blank templates. This activity can also be used in a small group or team setting.

 Advantages to the Students

Learning sciences research tells us that students learn much better “by doing” rather than “by listening.” This means that passive learning – the traditional lecture – is being replaced in our classrooms by more active learning activities that emphasize student problem solving, discussion, presentation and other “authentic” learning-by-doing-activities. (Day, 2004). By including students into the lesson it opens up a realm of possibilities because students can retain roughly only 10% of what they write down.

Teacher Apprehension

            So why are teachers not using technology that engages and interacts more frequently with students? There are many reasons why teachers feel apprehensive or uncomfortable using an interactive whiteboard, proxima and PowerPoint. The first of which could be the length of time from their college prep program until now. Teachers often get exposed to and learn new technologies in their teacher prep courses. Some might not have been prepared enough upon entering the workforce. Although the availability of technology in American schools has increased (US Department of Education, 2000), information released by The National Education Association (2004) indicates that less than 35% of public school teachers feel they are “well prepared” or “very well prepared” to use this technology effectively.

            The second reason is blockage from the school’s control or security system. Teachers claim that the firewalls and filtering systems create blockage in their attempts to educate and communicate with others with technology (Murray, 2004). The teachers and other users can become frustrated when they do not understand why a certain item like a website used for a scavenger hunt or a hyperlink in a PowerPoint are not available.

            The inconsistency from school to school is another reason. At one site there may be access to all different types of technology while at another the absence is very evident. The general public perception is that our schools are using technology and managing our resources in that area well. In several surveys done some schools do show nearly 100 percent use of technology while in others the use of technology is nonexistent (Starr, 2003).

Summary

The research has shown that there are proven benefits to using technology in the classroom. The ability to integrate technology into the classroom can add valuable information and ideas to our students.

By facilitating Proximas, PowerPoint, and interactive whiteboards our teachers will be able to reach a broader audience of learners.

Information Technology and the move to a computerized infrastructure model are bringing great changes to many industries. Often it is the CIO of the company who escort this fundamental shift in the business revenue stream. Leading others through modernization, revolutionize and transformation means you must be able to make changes yourself.

Forget about asking whether technology drives business or business drives technology. Stop perturbing about whether or not technology is strategic. Silence all the confusions about how advance this technology is to that technology. In technology, there are numerous questions that if you have to ask, you probably already know and don’t like the answer. A more satisfying line of inquiry is how much of your technological horsepower is actually being used to turn the wheels of innovation.

Some people says that Technology drives business modernization, novelty, success & Innovations that opens up new doors of opportunities, improves the company’s performance on the whole, sharpens the company’s market intelligence, and makes new things possible for the clients. Another school of thought is that the Business Drives Technology, as such integration is about assisting business to facilitate their profitability by utilizing technology and other resources available to the enterprise. But realistically speaking, the driving force comes from the CEO and CIO of the company, who both endeavor to leverage technology to its fullest potential.

In a society that has become entirely dependent on computers and immediate communications, technology is becoming the heartbeat in the process of office design as decisions on layout and services. Some aspects of technology, like the computer animation & communication, are highly visible demonstration devices. But more of it is in the largely unseen infrastructure, with the emphasis on sophisticated wiring and smart communication devices to provide for an ever greater flow, and on communications and power facilities to keep operations running through almost any anticipated calamity.

In the modernization of the today’s businesses, Common business drivers include; Mergers and Acquisitions, Internal Reorganizations, Application and System Consolidation, Inconsistent/Duplicated/Fragmented Data, New Business Strategies, Compliance with Government Regulations, Streamlining Business Processes. To achieve the success in the accommodation of these business drivers, the sturdy and smart input would be required from both the parties i.e. the business as well as the technology.

In a company, you could cover every surface in your office with how to manage change. But one aspect of change management that often dodges IT Managers is how to better influence corporate colleagues. If information technology drives business decisions, the IT executives must communicate and be persuasive with other department heads on key project management issues.

Strategic planning for Information Technology is one component of an overall company vision for success. This psychoanalysis facilitates IT professionals to successfully define short and long-term goals and ascertain the resources necessary to apprehend such goals. To ensure success, the strategic plan should be developed in a thorough but rapid manner, consist of a brief, succinct compilation of analyzed data, and provide opportunities by which additional planning and analysis can occur.

Several important benefits occur as the result of a successful strategic IT plan. First, employees are provided with an understanding of how their role fits in with the overall company structure. Also, this planning allows managers to realize additional opportunities for growth and success. Finally, important relationships between technology investment and positive outcomes, such as increased market share, are revealed.

It’s now become the industry dilemma that IT people need to know more about business. They need to understand the disciplines and the lingo of business process management, business performance management, customer relationship management, supply chain management, financial management, human resources management, operations management, etc. Lacking that knowledge, communication with business people and understanding of business requirements will forever be troubled.

On the other hand the Business people should also drive their efforts to know more about information technology. As with all communication and relationship issues, this is not a prejudiced problem. Just as IT people need to become more business-oriented, business people need to be more IT-oriented. They need to understand the roles and relationships among the many different kinds of technology upon which their information systems depend, and they need to understand the dependencies among those technologies. Business people need to have a working knowledge of the technology stack as it affects their capability to get information, perform business analysis, and make informed business decisions.

Beyond the relatively straight-forward needs of business becoming IT-oriented and technologists becoming business-oriented, there lies a new challenge. We must develop common understanding and shared perspective of value, an issue that is both a business concern and a technology consideration. When business and IT have different meaning and outlook for value, conflicts are certain to arise.

Business and IT organizations often have two evidently different perspectives of value. IT expert generally take a data-to-value approach. Where Data produces information, information enhances knowledge, knowledge drives action, action produces outcomes, and favorable outcomes deliver value. Business management typically uses a goals-to-value system. Business drivers and goals determine strategies, strategies drive tactics, which in turn produce results, and positive results produce value.

Effective business/IT relationships are ultimately a question of alignment. New IT skills, new business skills, and new perspectives that sets the stage for business/IT alignment. But it doesn’t assure alignment. To achieve genuine association there are several things that must be done; some by IT, some by the business, and some collectively.

Conflicts between business and IT organizations have existed from the very beginning of automated Information Systems. We have accelerated in so many ways both in business and in technology. However, the problem still pestilences most of the businesses. The Business/IT crack must go away. The cost is high; the value is null; and the barriers that it crafts grow bigger each moment. The problem can be fixed, and the time to fix it is now!

Forensic science colleges specialize in the application of a wide range of knowledge; processes and methods used to find evidence from a crime scene, These science colleges train to aid law enforcers to bring the culprits to justice.

Forensic science originated from Latin, which means “before a forum”. Most forensic scientists are employed to verify and testify evidences in court litigations. People who master in forensic science mostly begin as laboratory scientists doing research and experiments. They are perhaps allured into the law enforcement support functions for the thrilling experience of deciphering the mysterious, the baffling, and almost insolvable crime stories. Lawyers, policemen and journalists may enroll in forensic science colleges to augment their skill sets.

Almost every toy was a science toy first!  Electricity, tops, yoyo’s, motors and light were at one time all brand new science inventions.   Even today, toys follow soon after discoveries and inventions are applied to industry.  You can find toys that use lasers, plasma physics, the latest robotics technology and embedded computers for a few tens of dollars.

Science toys come in several styles, and each has their own charm and benefit.   Many toys are fully assembled, many science toys come in kits, and other toys are described in build-it-yourself howto science books.  You can search for and select science toys in any of these categories.

First, you can buy completely assembled toys in all fields of science.  Biology science toys might include fully assembled microscopes, magnifiers, stained slides for anatomy and physiology, even ant farms or venus fly traps.  Chemical science toys could be slime or silly putty, chemical rockets, rocks and crystals, or boing balls.  Physics and electronics science toys comprise gyroscopes and tops, the yo-yo, plasma balls, magnets, motors and lasers.

Second, you can buy build-it-yourself kits.  These kits of course include the timeless chemistry set and the classical lego blocks, but many electronic kits are do-it-yourself to help you learn the science as you build.  Robot kits and robotic addons to lego toys are good examples, and electronic kits usually come with a workspace, or breadboard, and lots of parts that plug into the breadboard to make fully working electronic — or even computer — circuits.   Biology science toy kits might be a dissection set or slide mounting set, to help learn anatomy or microscope technique.  Physics science toy kits include optical assembly kits where you build your own telescope or make your own holograms.

Third, you can buy science books that show you how to demonstrate science.  Many of these books show experiments that can safely be performed by grade school kids.  Examples include how soap bubbles work, how plants grow and how plants adapt to different environments, how household chemicals react — the classic vinegar and baking soda trick! — and how to make solar power toys with parts you can buy at the store.  These books are often the easiest way to start learning science by fun.  You can literally find hundreds of science tricks in these books, and can often make these projects for free.

The internet is your best resource for learning about science toys.  It used to be that you had to shop through catalogs and toy stores to find your science toys, but now you can browse toys by category — assembled, kits, how-to books — or by science — chemical toys, biology toys, physics toys, or robots — right online, and select toys based on the best price or the most reputable merchant.  There is no better way to make learning science fun than to get these science toys and start to play!

Science is a very ancient subject. There is science in almost everything that we do these days, with the development of scientific acumen and curiosity among students, there has been a steady increase in the number of students wanting to take up science as a career after their class 12th. There are several new science colleges in India that were set up in the past decade to nurture the dreams of these young minds.

There is science in almost everything that we do these days, with the development of scientific acumen and curiosity among students, there has been a steady increase in the number of students wanting to take up science as a career after their class 12th. There are several new science colleges in India that were set up in the past decade to nurture the dreams of these young minds. Science is divided into numerous branches of studies, from biology to psychology, science is a vibrant subject to pursue, and the fact that there is so much more progress that is to be made in this field makes this field a challenging and exciting one. India has for long been very much interested in science, even from the ancient times, India has been a forbearer in the field of science education, be it the great university of Nalanda that taught students basic sciences or to the modern Indian Institute of Science which has gained a great reputation among scientist around the world.
With the economic boom in India, and the upsurge of the services industry, science has become an integral part of the economy. As India moves from a conventional economy to that of knowledge based one, there is a requirement for employees from the science field. Even though engineering and medicine remains the most lucrative career option, science is seeing resurgence and is sure to remain lucrative as India charts her great new path.
Science colleges in India usually offer B.Sc. (Bachelor of Science) and a similar post graduation course for 2 years duration called the M.Sc. (Master of Science), B.Sc. is three year courses with many optional subjects to choose from, there would be one main subject like “B.Sc in Microbiology” which a student is suppose to opt in the beginning. Science colleges in India have been planning to make the course much more lucrative and useful to students, therefore a proposal was made to the Indian government asking them to make to course to be of 4 year duration. The UGC (University Grants Commission) is looking up at this and has taken a few decisions in this regard, if Science colleges in India are able to make the course much more structured and well poised for the future, then it would surely be good for all those students who are planning to pursue the course in the near future.
With the popularity of IISc and other Science colleges in India on the increase and the number of toppers of several schools opting for science education, Science colleges in India sure to see a massive growth in employment and research prospect both in short as well as long term.

There are plenty of job opportunities that are provided to the students of these universities. Placement assistance is also given to the students to select the career according to their own choice.

Getting kids interested in science is something a lot of parents want to do. And the earlier we start, the better the results. This is because early on, kids get the impression that science is a subject that is fun and engaging. Aside from this, if they understand the easier basic science concepts, then it will be easier for them to grasp the more complex concepts later on.

So how exactly do parents go about to create an environment of fun science for kids? There are numerous books out there that can help. One of these books is “The Amazing Science Discovery Series”. This series specifically targets kids in the elementary grade levels and covers grade 1 to 5 science lesson. It’s a set of 5 ebooks designed to help parents re-discover the fun in science together with their kids.

Here are some tips adapted from this book to help you plant the seed of love for science in your little ones.

Fuel their curiosity.

If your child asks you a question the answer to which you aren’t sure of, don’t invent an answer or end it by saying you don’t know. The best way to approach this tricky situation is to find the answer together with your child. Research together. Maybe do an experiment together to check the outcome. That’s the scientific method in action.

Children learn a lot by doing. And if they see that you are enthusiastic about finding the answers and if you both are successful in finding it, it will show him that science is fun and that it is something comprehensible.

Encourage your child to ask questions and take time to help him find the answers. This will keep him interested and involved in science.

Allow your child to explore.

As parents, we can be naturally over protective of our kids. But in the interest of science, we need to give them the opportunity to get down and dirty and explore the natural environment. Go on a trip to the beach, or a fishing expedition. Go camping with them once in a while or help them plant an herb garden. All of these activities provide them with the opportunity to interact with the natural world, which is something they will learn about in their life science classes.

Letting them go out and explore will allow them to observe first hand the effects of weathering on various rock formations, the water cycle, and food chain and so much more. It will also make them aware of the need to conserve our resources and to be conscious of some of our actions that can harm the environment.

Throw a science party for your kids and their friends.

This is not as geeky as it sounds. Science parties are a great way to make science fun and cool for your child and his peers. You may not realize it, but something like a magic show can become a fun science activity for your child if the magician is also a good teacher and talks about how concepts learned in the physical sciences are used to make some magic tricks possible.

Another idea is a kite making and flying party. Through this party, your host can talk about how kites are able to fly and how the weather can affect how high you can fly your kite or how specific kite designs are better compared to others.
