Abstract

The importance of hands-on experimentation in understanding concepts of science is well established. However, due to various constraints, every student does not get enough hands-on opportunity, and this limits their creativity and cognitive development. The Information and Communication Technology (ICT) offers various tools helpful to visualise and explain science in an effective manner. This article lists some of the available avenues for such interactive learning. It further discusses some of the possible ways of adopting emerging technologies for the purpose of science education, particularly in the context of school education.
