Abstract:

One of the most important earnings of an effective pedagogic schedule (at various levels) is showing attractiveness of science. This attractiveness is a tool for lifelong learning and keeping audiences tune to education provided. In formal education,the educators cannot provide these effective attractiveness because of some limitations (e. g. educational spaces) but in science centers and science museums, there are no such limitations and the educators or facilitators can use various techniques, tools and methods for making pedagogic attractiveness.In this paper, the activity of some famous science centers in Iran are monitored and the influence of their activities to their audiencesare evaluated. The data was collected from audiences after visiting museums/ science centers. In conclusion, I found that the audiences have better feelings about science after visiting a science museum. At last, I propose the quadruple rule for designing and making a better / more effective science center in Iran or in other developing countries.
