Why is Science Education Important?

Technology has changed the way we all work, play, learn, and live.  People use social media such as Facebook to keep in touch with friends and relatives, and make new connections.  Business makes use of technologies to communicate, to work in teams, to create new products and services.  Individuals shop online and make use of technology tools that seamlessly allow them to manage information.  World economies are, or are becoming information based, and moving away from industrial based systems.

We are living in a time where information  (doubles)  find numbers    , and world societies must face  problems of poverty, food shortages, water supplies, climate change, disease and medical issues, and environmental problems.  To respond to these issues, world citizens must be equipped tomake informed decisions on the basis of real information, not just superstition or word of mouth.
