National Science and Technology Exhibition Programme
The program emerged at the end of 2009 when science fair activities shifted from being organized by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation to being coordinated by the Education Secretariat of the Ministry of Education. Science fairs are an educational proposal and method of working in the classroom that pose pedagogical challenges of various types (educational, communicative, cultural, etc.).
In its various states, it constitutes a space for the exchange of educational experiences between participants: students, teachers, scientists, technicians, artists, researchers, officials, society and the general public. It is the latest example of a long-term educational proposal that poses pedagogical challenges of various kinds: educational, communicative and cultural, among others. It includes work from all curriculum areas and across all levels and modalities of the national education system.
