Learning scientific reasoning skills, gaining access to knowledge and being taught scientific methods – these
are essential steps for citizens of the future to develop critical thinking and for excellence to transmit within the
scientific community through time. The Académie des Sciences has a long-standing tradition of advising on these
matters: today, it takes action, even on the international level, to strengthen initial and ongoing teacher training,
renew science teaching at all school levels and ensure all young people with equal opportunity in this field.
