OVERVIEW SSI’s Education & Public Outreach (E/PO) program
is innovative, fosters collaboration, and has strategic impact on the communities
we serve. We
take great pride in successfully bridging the worlds of cutting edge research
with the multi-faceted realm of engaging and enlightening science communication.
The results are dynamic and pioneering E/PO programs that
span a wide range of audience needs and learning modalities: from web-enabled
interactive experiences to fully immersive museum exhibitions; from hands-on
teaching materials and standards-based curricular supplements to ability-enhancing
partnerships between scientists and educators, and much more.
We are also
building upon our areas of expertise and striving to expand into new educational
frontiers, such as mass media projects. Together with key partners, we
are leading the way to more meaningful, more effective, and more innovative
science education. MORE...
