Science Bee (Bengali: সায়েন্স বী) is an online educational platform in Bangladesh founded in 2018 by education entrepreneur S M Mobin Sikder.[1][2][3][4]

History[edit]

In 2018, a student from Jahangirnagar University named S. M. Mobin Sikder founded Science Bee with the idea of disseminating science education in Bengali for free throughout the country via Internet.[5][6] In the beginning, they did not have a website and used social media Facebook to publish informative infographics and news for students. In 2019 activities started through the website[7] that used to publish various science topics and news in Bengali, then accelerated with the help of social media.[8] Next came the Q&A site where there is an opportunity to earn points besides the service of asking questions and getting answers. Finally, e-book services were added.[9]
