Distance Learning

Experience live, interactive Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum programs right in your classroom! Our dynamic, knowledgeable educators use videoconferencing technology to share science demonstrations and activities with your students, engaging them in an active, hands-on learning experience. All programs address National Science Education Standards and align with the Michigan Grade Level Content Expectations.

Each Distance Learning program includes

A 45-minute interactive program
A kit with materials for interactive experiments for 30 students
A Teacher’s Guide to prepare you, your classroom and your students for the experience
Extension activities and resources for further exploration
