We the voters don’t demand it and it’s a shame

So the issue, we know how to teach and learn science. The problem is how to make the relationship between science and technology. The understanding of the close relationships between science and technology and how they impinge upon development is critical. This is where teacher education in Africa need to focus. While science helps us to know what exists and why it is or behaves that way, technology gives us the know-how and capability to achieve our human needs and wants. A teacher’s main goal is to help students find that link btn sci & tech
