‘Workshop for Science Educators’


 
 
I proceeded to the launching of the workshop for Science Educators today at the Rajiv Gandhi Science Centre. I would like to invite suggestions and proposals from the participants on how we can increase interest for science subjects at school and make learning of science more attractive and exciting. They should tell us about the best strategies the teacher can adopt for disseminating their scientific knowledge and how my Ministry, the Rajiv Gandhi Science Centre, the Mauritius Research Council can support them, teachers to attract more students towards the scientific fields. I invite all other secondary schools to participate in this type of workshop and to request the Rajiv Gandhi Science Centre to organize more activities for science educators on a regional basis and even consider awarding a Best Science Educators Award every year to give recognition to the formidable work being carried out by educators in the teaching of Science.I wish them all fruitful interactions.
