Abstract
Science Education is a major part of education that enhances the technological and economic development of a society. Over time, science education has been a male dominated branch of study. It is observed that the female gender pick less interest in the science owing to the fact that the field of science is assumed to be a hard nut to crack for females. Most females find themselves in the field of science and still wish they were in a different field. Some study science course and end up not practicing because they think that other fields are more interesting and simpler. The introduction of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to sciences has done a lot of improvement in the field of science. This paper looks at the values that Digital Jewelry as a wearable device adds to science Education and how these can make the study of sciences and science-related courses interesting for female scientists.
