Encouraging interest in science has never been more important
• In the 4th grade, two thirds of boys and girls like science.
• Too many students do not knowwhat scientists do or who they are.
• Many students do not see the relevance of science, or connect it to the real world.

Young people have an image of scientists as eccentric old men with wild hair, smoking cigars, deep in thought, alone. Basically, they think of Einstein.
We need to change that image and give our children a much richer, nuanced view of who scientists are, what scientists do, and how they work.
