India Science (www.indiascience.in) is an Internet-based science Over-The-Top (OTT) TV channel. It is an initiative of the Department of Science and Technology (DST), Govt of India , implemented and managed by Vigyan Prasar (VP), an autonomous organisation of Department of Science and Technology. This 24x7 video platform is dedicated to science and technology knowledge dissemination, with a strong commitment to spreading scientific awareness especially with Indian perspectives, ethos and cultural milieu. The initiative is supported by National Council of Science and Technology Communication (NCSTC), DST.

Science and Technology are the main driving forces of the nation and fundamental to the progress and growth. But there is a distinct difference between “science” and “scientific”.

What do you think, is the difference and where do you think they relate with each other? How do the two words contribute to building and reinforcing scientific temper among the youth? Send us your views!

Scientific thinking : Please wear a mask. It's the easiest thing you can do to reduce COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths. It's not a political statement — it's a patriotic act.

Scientific approach is about systematic observation, collection of data, analysis, study and recording of outcomes with a view to test a new hypothesis. The body of science can help in projecting a desired outcome but the actual outcomes should determine the underlying proof of the hypothesis not influenced by any other extraneous influencing phenomena. It is essential to imbibe the methodologies and approach of scientific thinking and analysis among students that would help the scientific mind

We have to more practical than having theoretical knowledge . In our education curriculum many students studying for the exams to get marks even though practicals in the institution are also based on rattafication. There are more discoveries in the past compared to now because there wasn't competition and having no competition means having no pressure So that's why people wants to understand their surroundings and In the present world people wants more better technologies but don't work onit.

The Scientific temper is a way of life which uses the scientific method and which may, consequently, include questioning, observing physical reality, testing,analysing, and communicating. Scientific temper describes an attitude which involves the application of logic. Discussion, argument and analysis are vital parts of scientific temper. Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe.
