	abstract = {Scientific research activity (SRA) in comprehensive school is not a new phenomenon. Similar actions have been paid attention at various stages of education. Changes in the quality and quantity of the current stage of society development show a different situation: the pace of life increases, the {\textquotedblleft}turbulence{\textquotedblright} of the surroundings is observed, globalization and social and economical changes in various segments of society gain more power. At the moment, the education system in Lithuania and other countries is facing different changes. As for the reorganization of Lithuanian education system within the period of the last two decades, it seems to be an intensive and ambiguous process. Lithuania had to pose two fundamental challenges: first, to proceed from the so called {\textquotedblleft}soviet{\textquotedblright} system of education the one based on national identity and experience, and second, to adapt the new system to the needs for modern society fully integrating the experience of international education. The adjustment of national and international components has remained the major problem of Lithuanian education system up to now.
SRA is obviously must be developed and reach an appropriate level in all comprehensive schools, including stages from the institution of pre-school education to upper-secondary school. Thus, three crucial moments must be considered:
{\textbullet} finding / discovering / involving students as young researchers;
{\textbullet} creating a system of educating students as young researchers;
{\textbullet} training the staff undertaking SRA for students.},

The future of science education and scientific literacy of youngsters is determined by the educational policy of the country, moreover, it also depends on teachers working at schools and universities. The tasks of reported research work was to explore approachable literature about natural science education in general and to analyse corresponding educational problems particularly in Latvia.
     The tasks of reported research work was to explore approachable literature about natural science education in general and to analyse some corresponding educational problems particularly in Latvia. Particular attention has been paid to the following components of contemporary educational process: developing student{\textquoteright}s thinking skills, they skills to make connections to a known material and to real life situations.
     The author was found out that only 35\% of science teachers are paying attention to a process of organizing study process, about 40\% of science teachers become a source of knowledge to their students.
     It was stated that not much attention has been paid to interdisciplinary themes and problems, not much attention has been paid to designing positive social environment and building student{\textquoteright}s value system.
     Science teachers need to recognize that they educate students to be able to develop their skills, attitudes and awareness as members of the society through a context of science.},
