Field trips to science museums are important, but they often come with a lot of logistical challenges. Coordinating transportation for an entire school, organizing chaperones, and ensuring students remain engaged during the visit can be overwhelming for educators. Mobile Ed’s STEAM Museum offers a direct, hands-on experience without the challenges of a field trip. Designed to inspire students in grades K-8, this hands-on museum is a traveling exhibition that focuses on hands-on learning, STEAM education, and explorative learning.
By bringing the STEAM museum to your school, you can skip the transportation and scheduling hassles while still providing an immersive, educational experience that rivals any field trip. Students get to engage with interactive exhibits at their own pace, right in their own school, ensuring a stress-free and enriching experience for both teachers and students. Let’s take a virtual tour through the STEAM Museum to get a behind-the-scenes look at this incredible learning opportunity for students.
Welcome to the STEAM Museum!
The virtual tour begins with an overview of what STEAM is all about. STEAM education integrates science, technology, engineering, art, and math into a cohesive learning model based on real-world applications. It encourages students to think critically, solve problems creatively, and collaborate with their peers—skills that are essential for success in the modern world.
As students enter the STEAM Museum, they are greeted with interactive, hands-on exhibits designed to ignite curiosity and foster a love of learning. From engineering challenges to robotic demonstrations, each exhibit presents a different aspect of STEAM, ensuring there’s something to engage every student.
Exhibit 1: Virtual Reality
The first stop on our virtual tour takes us to virtual reality! Travel through time and space with our high-quality virtual reality expeditions! These advanced VR headsets give students a very realistic and immersive journey through the solar system, prehistoric eras, and important landmarks. Volunteers will help students use the virtual exhibits and guide them through the virtual tour. Multiple students can use this exhibit at one time.
Exhibit 2: Robotics
Next, we step into the exciting world of robotics. In this exhibit, students can witness robotics demonstrations and learn how to program robots. There are several different robots at the STEAM Museum that students get the chance to program. From rovers to humanoid robots. Some can even dance or speak to your students! One of our favorite robots advances students’ understanding of coding and their ability to code by using a tablet to program and control the robot's movement! The robots are many students’ favorite exhibit at the STEAM Museum. The goal of this exhibit is to demystify robotics and show students that they, too, can learn the skills needed to build and program their own robots.
Exhibit 3: 3D Printing and Technology
The next stop on our tour introduces students to 3D printing. This groundbreaking technology allows users to create three-dimensional objects by layering materials according to digital designs. Students can watch demonstrations of 3D printers in action and see how everyday items are brought to life through technology.
Exhibit 4: Microscopes
These high-tech, state-of-the-art digital microscopes allow students to experience the world around them in a way they’ve never seen before. Whether they put a coin or a leaf under the microscope, they are bound to be amazed by the new close-up perspective they get when using the powerful magnifying lens. Several different slides of unique and interesting objects are available to provide the best and most interesting experience possible.
Exhibit 5: Art Meets Technology
In this final stop of our tour, students see how art and technology can work together to create something amazing. Using teamwork and principles of physics and simple machines, students get to make unique art that they can take home with them and hang on their walls. While one student peddles on a stationary bike, another uses non-toxic paint to create their masterpiece on a spinning wheel. Students will enjoy experimenting with how different motions, colors, and hand movements change their art! This exhibit emphasizes that STEAM isn’t just about numbers and science—it’s also about imagination and creativity.
And Much More!
There are many more exhibits featured in our STEAM Museum, and you won't want to miss it! Mobile Ed’s STEAM Museum brings science, technology, engineering, art, and math to life in a way that excites and inspires students. Bringing Mobile Ed’s hands-on exhibits, the STEAM Museum, offers an unforgettable learning experience right in your own building.
A Hands-On Experience with a Real Impact
If you’re looking to inspire the next generation of problem solvers, inventors, and creators, the STEAM Museum is a perfect way to introduce students to the world of STEAM. Here's what one school said about the STEAM Museum this month:
"We loved being able to provide this experience to ALL of our K-3 students. It's such a cost-effective and efficient way to provide a museum experience without leaving the building. The kids loved it, and I hope you continue to provide this experience in the future!"
