How might we design science tasks with accessible entry points, and the potential for extended thinking?
The Academy is reopening to the public on March 17! In-person lectures and events remain paused for the time being, but we hope to resume them later this spring. Until then, explore Academy @ Home for mind-expanding virtual science resources!
Allow structured data:
Mind-expanding talks and presentations by the brightest stars in the field of astronomy.
The Academy regularly brings brilliant speakers to the Academy to lecture on everything from anthropology to zoology.
We host virtual PD on Zoom, as well as in-person workshops at our museum in San Francisco.
Deepen your connection to the natural world with an Academy science class.
