Project Work on Science Education
The perception of
science fair has been explored from European education pattern and their
culture.They firstly thought "Science fair must be based on creativity by
cultivating knowledge and intelligence of the learners". In continuation,
science fair has been approved in science education to augment laboratory
skills among the young learners.
The
concept of science fair has been explored from European education pattern and
culture. They firstly thought "Science fair must be based on creativity by
way of cultivating knowledge and intelligence of the learners". Indeed,
science fair needs to be introduced in different educational institutions by
considering its pedagogical phenomena based on practical knowledge and skills.
Hence, there is no alternate of practical knowledge to gain proper education in
the field of Science and Technology and hence the expansion of science fair is
needed in order to gear up creativity and awareness for acquiring knowledge of
the students. Hence, the steps for science fair in the educational institute
are ideally envisaged and contemporary.
In our country, every year science fair is held in different
educational institute annually to create motivation of research work and
enthusiasm. The teachers first collect the names and list them that they will
create a project based on science and technology. The students who are found
interested to introduce a new science work take a challenge and become capable
of showing a different creative work. He selects a project and thinks over the
work and the nature of technology behind it. Actually, he becomes responsible
of inventing something like a scientist. He sometimes shows something different
from modern age. They can project from ancient and medieval age.
The authority of different schools and colleges arrange science
fair in order to show the eagerness of actual knowledge and skills among the
students. At this, a congenial atmosphere is developed in the institution
because, they are concerning their heads about new inventions and discovery and
they become conscious of awakening their ideas and thoughts. In the context of
Bangladesh, every year different schools and colleges arrange science fair.
They first invite names from the interested students who are willing to make
the project work and to focus it in the science fair. They, like the scientists
carry on research work like making law, hypothesis and theory. They seek
respective ideas from different books and the achievement of scientists of the
world. At last they present their creativity and thus a systematic project is
reflected.
It is hoped in future that the steps to arrange science fair is
a predominating criteria to strengthen the cultivation of knowledge in applying
the definitive sense of technical know- how of science. A science fair is quite
different from other fairs existing in our country like a village fair and an
industrial fair and so on. These fairs serve the purpose of the business where
the commodities of qualitative nature are sold and displayed for making profit
in question. Here, the commodities are served in the market in such a manner,
where the companies good will and the nature and quality of product are vividly
disclosed so that the people are much attracted to purchase it to a great
extent. Besides this, in organizing science fair, the business importance is
not treated as the prime factor; rather the pedagogical manifestation to gear
up the intensity and potentiality of the students is given priority. Actually,
the eagerness for knowing the unknown world is reflected and a better
environment is flourished among the students in any educational institute where
science and technology are studied extensively. Even though, there has been
provided a wide range to the students in European countries for creating a
broad based project as a part of their education. The students who are found
attracted for learning technological skills and knowledge generally shines in
life by contributing a lot in the field of education. Like western country,
appropriate environment is needed where necessary equipment will play a vital
role. In many cases, only theoretical teachings are offered beside practical
knowledge and skills. It is a matter of great regret that the students are
deprived of gaining actual knowledge in the relevant field. Besides this,
technological instruments need to be placed in different institutions so that the
utilization of those equipment are properly made in a systematic manner.
The teacher should select a number of topics before allocating
on the project work to the students and they should give knowledge on the steps
of spreading and analyzing the topics in question. He should engage himself in
creating awareness and necessary skills in the field of the application of
mathematical model of science based on constructive exploration of modern
appliances. The teacher should set problems on practical model. The problems
must be based on practically oriented which set forth the topics covering
science and its technological aspects of nature.
In view of the above, it is obvious that the role of teachers for science education is unforgettable and as such they should chalk out programs in the laboratory to teach the application of modern science like exploring something in real life situation. If the educational institutions emphasize technological aspects on science education, the integrity to work in the field of science will be strengthened intensively. As a result the country will be much benefited in due sense of science education..
