THE REACH OF THE EXPLORATORIUM’S EFFORTS
in education and learning extends far beyond our
local community. Educators around the globe use
our online resources, making interactive learning
accessible to students in far-reaching areas. An
educator in Pakistan shares with us:
For the past seven years I have been a regular visitor
to the Exploratorium’s website. I have benefited hugely
from the workshop guides produced by the Institute
for Inquiry and have used them to conduct workshops,
which have always been well received.
The participants have been Pakistani teachers from
low-income schools in working class areas with very
limited resources. . . . I have had to translate handouts
into Urdu, scout around retail markets to get supplies,
identify carpenters to make scrapers, blocks, etc. But
it has been a vastly enjoyable journey. I have been
enriched.
Every year, thousands of
educators bring hands-on
science to their classrooms
through our teacher
education programs and
hundreds of Bay Area
high school students
develop leadership
skills while investigating
scientific phenomena with
Exploratorium visitors.
