    Indigenous belief also developed desirable values that are relevant or consistent to scientific attitudes:
    1. Motivating attitudes
    2. Cooperating attitudes
    3. Practical attitudes
    4. Reflective attitudes
    These cultural beliefs therefore can be good foundation for developing positive values toward learning and doing
    science in and in bringing science in a personal level.
