Promoting the use of demonstrations in the popularisation of science |
|---|
 |
| OmniScience is an organisation that has spent the past 10 years using demonstrations to promote the public understanding of science. Dr Bryson Gore, who previously spent 17 years working at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, has used his experience to bring the excitement and fun of science to audiences ranging from primary and secondary schools to the general public. Working in live shows in schools and on television he has helped people to see science in action. Through his books he has introduced many children to some of the amazing facts about the world around us and how science can provide an explanation for what might easilly be considered a 'mystery of the Universe'. Today he splits his time between taking live schows out to schools all over the UK, writing polular science books and scripts for other groups, and developing a website to enable people to bring together the wealth of knowledge about using practical science to promote the public understanding that exists on the web. |
