Project Type IQP Submission date 2009-04-30 Authors Elizabeth Anne Hegarty, MA Julie L Hitchcock, ME Samuel Henry LaFleche, CS Matthew T Warner, ME URN E-project-043009-134958 Division Education in a Technological Society Center London, England Sponsor Science Museum Title Evaluating the London Science Museum’s Activity Boxes at UK STEM Clubs Advisors Golding, Dominic, ID Davis, Paul W., MA Availability unrestricted Abstract
The London Science Museum has developed activity boxes that contain resources for science club teachers to conduct exciting science activities. This project evaluated three activities at six science clubs. Overall, the activity boxes are successful. Interviews and observations showed that students and teachers enjoyed the activities, despite some problems including that instructions were difficult to follow and some activities did not function as planned. We corrected many of these flaws and provided guidance for future resource developers.
