Science Corridor


Family Space and Robot Camps at Schools



Scientists, mathematicians, and most others who solve complex problems in business and industry, have always worked in groups, with the wisdom of experience and enthusiasm of the youth bringing compelling perspectives to ignite ideas. ScienceCorridor is an education initiative designed to offer children, their families and friends, dynamic and engaging hands-on opportunities to explore important Science concepts.

The programmes selected are representative of on-going activities for students at museums around the world. The ScienceCorridor programs use approaches backed by research coupled with the guidelines set by the National Science Teachers Association. The program uses a broad array of resources designed to introduce and enhance student’s understanding of critically important ideas in response to the everlasting question “where do we come from?”
