Distance Learning is coming to your school! If you have videoconference capabilities, your class can participate in virtual field trips to the Buffalo Museum of Science without even leaving your building. Students will be guided through 45 minutes of hands-on experiences and lessons taught by Museum staff and facilitators. Informational Activity Packets that incorporate important learning objectives of the New York State Standards are included to prepare students and to enhance the experience. You will also receive an Activity Box containing reproduction pieces, models, or other equipment relating to the topic, (Note: Activity Boxes must be postmarked and returned 1 week after the scheduled program. The school is responsible for return postage.).
Distance Learning courses are offered Monday through Friday and require 3 weeks advanced notice for scheduling, and schools are required to pay all line fees for ISDN or fiber optic connections.
