Transforming Spaces: Science Museum Collaborations with Indigenous Advisory Groups
Description

This session will explore hands-on approaches to culturally-relevant STEAM activities developed through spectrUM’s “Transforming Spaces” project funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The spectrUM Discovery Area, Missoula’s hands-on science center, has partnered with a statewide tribal advisory committee to deepen and explore cross-cultural, collaborative approaches to STEM and role model engagement and weave Native science experiences throughout spectrUM programs. Participants will learn about this project and will take home curriculum and lessons to bring to their classrooms.
