Later the rules of heredity, which involve permutations and combinations, are presented by making a number of labels of different shapes and working out permutations and combinations of these to understand how hybrid seeds give rise to variations in future generations. The above examples illustrate how the concepts of science can be made easier to understand in technical education, based on wider, common, shared experiences. The students can also be asked to construct models for better understanding. This is easier in the technical stream than in conventional science. The greatest benefit however should come from the continuous testing of their knowledge in the real life world. This is the basis of all science. Giving community services as part of the technical education ensures this. < Rural Development Through Education System 143
