The teaching of science, particularly technical and vocational science, faces many challenges. These include motivation of students, luck of substantive materials which students see as relevant and connected to their common experiences. Many students find science unattractive because science seems outside of any cultural framework. As the result many students do not take physics, mathematics and chemistry courses.
This project aims to enrich the science and technology curricula be having students develop related multimedia materials. The study of the bicycle offers the proper mix of simplicity and complexity in both technical and cultural aspects that will allow it to become the vehicle for multidisciplinary topic for students.
