Helping People Understand Science

    It is really important for people to understand science in today's world. Science isn't something that is going away or can be brushed off. It is in everything and anything you do in daily life. Without many scientific innovations, we would not have a lot of the things we have today. Most people don't realize that you do use science everyday even when you are not a scientist. It took science to create telephones, electricity, etc. Besides using science in your daily life, it is also important to understand where we came from and how the world works. Having knowledge of how plants survive and what ecosystems are is important for everyone to know. Educating others about science is definitely important.  

    Science can be easily explained to different audiences by a variety of ways. YouTube videos that explain certain scientific topics in a fun way can be very engaging for a younger or older audience. The video linked below is the well known Bill Nye explaining evolution with emojis. Using emojis appeals to a younger audience and they get more information about evolution in a fun way. Taking a trip to a museum with friends and getting to look at the different things there would be a cool thing to do. You get to spend time with your friends and learn some new things about history and science without having to sit in a classroom and listen. You can get involved and walk around the exhibits.

    Our game was called Archie: Myth or Fact? It was a card game where you had to guess whether the statement on the card was a myth or a fact. The more you got right, the more cards you kept. Whoever had the most cards in the end, won the game.The objective of the game was to help others gain information about Archie in a fun way. The only thing that I would improve on the game would be to lower the difficulty of some of the cards, but all in all it worked out really well. The kids that played the game responded really well to it and seemed to enjoy it when they played it.
