The purpose of this essay is about how science can be involved in the life of young people, getting their attraction. The problem is that the majority of young people is not interested in getting new knowledge, not only in science, almost in most ways of life.
The problem is that teachers and professors, and the educational system, don´t encourage to young people to discover new things, and, of course, they don´t know how to explain this science at high schools or universities.
In my opinion, science should be explained as a game in which students can learn better about science. As the British Council says in an article in its webpage, “If children leave a science class feeling inspired and able to see the relevance of science to the real world, then the class has been taught well. Some teachers make a huge effort to inspire their pupils by coming up with inventive ways of teaching, and using real-life examples to show how science is part of everyday life — but others don’t. Children often don’t realise the range of available scientific careers and have narrow views about what being a ‘scientist’ means”.
