Yes.Science is fascinating for anybody who values knowledge, because it is a body of knowledge as well as a method to acquire more knowledge. Indeed the word science is derived from the Latin word scire, meaning, “to know”. ... This is so because scientists are always on the look out for new knowledge.

Science education aims to increase people's understanding of science and the construction of knowledge as well as to promote scientific literacy and responsible citizenship. We can use science communication to increase science-related knowledge among adults, in particular.

Real-life scenarios, peer-to-peer teaching, hands-on activities, science projects and field research journals are effective teaching techniques in the science curricula. Instruction in science often can foster greater interpersonal skills and independent thought.

Depending on the grades they teach, science teachers may be expected to be knowledgeable about basic ideas and content from at least five academic disciplines: biology, chemistry, earth science, mathematics, and physics.
