The National Museum of Science and Technology director general, Muhammad Munir Chowdhury, at a seminar on Wednesday urged the teachers to play an active role to motivate the students of remote areas to practice science and ethics.
The NMST organised the seminar titled Ethically Enriched Science Education: Initiation of Nation Building for 120 teachers from 73 colleges across Bangladesh visiting the museum, said a press release.
Mentioning that teachers are the guides of the nation and they should be honest, the DG said, ‘Teachers should play an active role to motivate the students of remote areas to practice science and ethics.’
Students are now becoming inattentive to studies due to mobile addiction, leading to loss of talent, he said, adding that irrespective of how much salary they got every month, they teachers should be devoted to nation building.
Munir Chowdhury also said that if the students of the remote areas could be engaged in the science museum’s science exhibition and space observation through the telescope and various science-based competitive events, the awakening of knowledge practice would be created in the country.
Earlier, the trainee teachers of Bangladesh Institute of Management visited the Museum.
