Science Extension Education is an educational process
intending to transfer scientific knowledge to the
community to foster better family living. It is a two
way process. On one hand, information from education
and research institutions is disseminated to the
families; on the other, the problems and suggestions
are fed back to the information/ technology
generation system for mid-course corrections.
