The South Florida Science Museum will develop a three-year science education skills and enrichment project called Science Discovery. The project will serve 200 teachers and 2,400 fourth graders in Title I elementary schools in the Palm Beach County School District. The goal of the project is to instill scientific habits of the mind in effective and entertaining ways, thereby improving students’ analytical skills and helping them succeed in school and in all aspects of their lives. The project is based on the museum’s highly successful Science Passport program and is designed to provide students with critical thinking and problem-solving skills as core components of 21st century scientific literacy.
