Using local resources in the Pacific to teach Science

Objectives

Pacific Island's Science teachers should aware of all the resources available locally. know how to use them effectively to teach Science lessons, inside and outside the classroom.

Discussion

Due to lack of educational resources in the Pacific Islands' classrooms to teach science lessons, some teachers tend to rely on those well arranged or build overseas resources rather than the ones they have. As a result, science teachers tend to neglect the Science lessons or put up a very little efforts on teaching Science and so as the popularity of the science lessons for all students in the Pacific Islands. I will try to put up some creative ideas and existing ones so that all the Science teachers in the may share and develop more.
