There would be still some need of supplying teaching aids and materials from outside which would have to be spe- cially designed to reduce costs. It is essential also to prepare books of instructions and text books to suit a fairly wide range of needs. These are difficult tasks which would call for extended study and research by scientists of high calibre with a serious interest in problems of science education. As basic conditions in underdeveloped countries are likely to be similar to a large extent, it may be possible to evolve broad general methods for science education which would be capable of being adapted without much difficulty to suit differing local conditions. 6.3. A great deal of pioneering research would be necessary for this purpose for which the help of advanced countries is indispensable. A good deal of experimental studies will have to be undertaken under conditions actually prevailing in under- developed regions. In the beginning, the studies would have to be organised on a small scale with the help and support of the local authorities and of such teachers and scientists as may be available to cooperate of the local authorities and of such teachers and scientists as may be available to cooperate in the venture in the underdeveloped country itself. The project can be gradually extended, in the light of experience, to cover different subject fields at different educational levels, and also [rom one underdeveloped country to another. Fortunately, even one or two scientists can start the work in one single country. The important point is to make a beginning at the earliest opportunity. 6.4. I may now mention a second type of programme. Cer- tain facilities for scientific research are already available in India and other developing countries. In most of these coun- tries, scientific work is being hampered for lack of small repla- cement parts, additional accessories and instruments, and sup- ply of essential consumable stores which have to be imported from the advanced countries. It is often difficult to secure 147 Mahalanobis I - pao. »8
