Scientific Thinking Through Stories: An effective way of science communication

Abstract

School education plays a major role in nation building as well as development. A child requires theoretical as well as practical knowledge about the particular subject. It is highly applicable to science related subjects. As science involves observation, analysis and experimenting along with study. Teaching beyond books is necessary to achieve this.
One of the best methods is to show experiments to children. Another method is to narrate the stories of particular interest and explain the scientific facts to them. This is an important method for primary school children. This method is also applicable to inculcate scientific thinking in children.
