Abstract :

Natural science and technology education improvement remains actual. In the context of decreasing youth interest in natural sciences and technology, it is important to search for the ways and devices of effective motivation, interest formation. 2nd International Baltic Symposium on science and technology “BalticSTE2015”, having taken place in Siauliai, was devoted to this. Its major topic is the improvement of natural science and technology education of the young generation. The symposium was organised by scientific methodological centre “Scientia Educologica”. The main symposium partner is Education sciences and psychology department at Siauliai University. Such kind of symposium was organised in Lithuania for the second time after the restoration of Lithuanian independence in 1990. It is worth remembering, that the first symposium on the same theme was held in 2015 in Siauliai as well.
