Abstract :
This paper presents a framework of a platform of popular science education based on social computing, involving Wiki technique and subject search technique. On this platform, users can use the popular science Wiki to add, edit and comment on popular science information, create their own popular science resources and communicate with each other widely. Meanwhile, their self-learning abilities will be enhanced. Besides, with the search engine of popular science, users can get more professional and accurate search service benefiting from scoring search results, for their scores can affect the ranking of the results.
