- 1. --: A platform for enriching scientific temper amongst youth in India (WORKING PAPER)
- 2. YOUTH, SCIENCE AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT YOUTH SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT 1
- 3. ADVANCEMENT IN S &T =/=> PROGRESS OF SOCIETY 2
- 4. WHY DOES THE GAP STILL EXIST? LOSS OF SCIENTIFIC TEMPER happened when we failed to socialise the science India is one among the world nations to constitutionalize the concept of scientific temper as a fundamental duty Of every citizen Science, Technology and Innovation policy of 2013 also stressed on “promoting the spread of scientific temper amongst all sections of society” as the first objective
- 5. CONCEPT OF OPEN SCIENCE CENTRE • an inclusive engaging and learning space where community gets on hand experience and knowledge on basic and advanced science ,in their own language. • easy and guided accessibility of science and technology at the local community level • Space where local scientific knowledge can be disseminated and processed.
- 6. OBJECTIVES OF OSC • Socialization of science and science education (basic and advanced) through effective science communication • scientific empowerment of local communities • environment generation at grass roots level for infusing scientific temper, especially among youth • platform for catalyzing research attitude among people and to engage with current and cutting edge knowledge at local level.
- 7. FUNCTIONAL METHODOLOGY • youth centered multidimensional interventions • Establishing experimental set up in OSC’s • Local resource mobilization carried out through community members themselves. • Conducting open debate, symposiums, workshops etc • Facilitating action science researches at community level • Bringing amateur and professional scientists /researches at one stage
- 8. EXPECTED OUTCOMES • Network creation of teachers, educators, volunteers, policy makers and scientists could be created under OSC which welcomes global initiatives at the ground level. • professional-amateur collaborations • Initiating a nationwide open science movement
- 9. “The strategic priority that should be given to science education cannot be solely happen by institutional framework or policy formulations. But on ground interventions should happen where people themselves being the scientists and engage in scientific activities.” And that’s what OSC intends to do.
Editor's Notes
- CONCEPT DEVELOPED BASED ON 2 IDEAS: 1: Should address “Why youth and science are the answers for sustainable global change?” (STEM subjects) advancements
- LIST OUT SOME ACHIEVEMENTS OF INDIA IN THE PAST DECADES 2: BT WE COULDN’T TRANSFORM THE SCIENTIFIC ACHIEVEMENTS INTO SOCIETAL PROGRESS AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Existence of gap
- Pin pointing scientific temper , what and why?
- OSC is a multifaceted perspective foreign nations are focusing more on developing osc with open standards Explain in detail The Idea of an Open Science Center (OSC), thus, is conceived within the frame of a larger study on devolving scientific knowledge at local sphere
- How the OSC should function and activities that can be taken up under osc functional and behavioral knowledge has to be considered
- Ultimately what OSC look forward to
- Explain about some of the activities taken up by OSF
