This action plan outlines strategic goals to enhance science education across Israel from K-12. It sets high-level long-term aspirations, such as fostering a culture of research and development (R&D) in schools, alongside short-term objectives aimed at increasing student participation in competitions like the WW ISEF. Key strategies include identifying strong scientific disciplines, developing local science fairs, and mapping existing competitions. This initiative aims to elevate educational outcomes by 2013, focusing on hands-on learning and collaboration to ensure students achieve meaningful recognition in science.
