WHAT IS Project Exploration?
Project Exploration was founded in 1999 by University of Chicago paleontologist Dr. Paul Sereno and educator Gabrielle Lyon, to make science accessible to the public-with a special focus on city kids and girls. |
 |
We work to:
- Reduce the distance between science and the public-especially populations historically under-represented in professional science
- Inspire city kids and girls to learn and achieve through innovative hands-on experiences with science
- Connect students, teachers, and families with working scientists
Project Exploration ACCOMPLISHES ITS MISSION THROUGH:
- Youth Development Initiatives, targeting low and middle achieving minority and female Chicago Public School students ages 12 to 17.
- Services for Schools and Teachers, primarily serving Chicago Public School teachers and their students, with an emphasis on schools serving minority and low-income students.
- Public Exhibitions and Online Initiatives, serving hundreds of thousands of families, students and teachers in Chicago, across the nation, and internationally.
