“Representation matters. For students of color in particular, but also for white students. They read The Hate U Give, and were like, ‘Do you have more like this?’ You can still teach literary skills to students reading a book of their choosing...we need to fill our libraries with books they actually want to read”.
Dr. Andrew Eyre, EXPLO Faculty Member, Director for Medical Simulation at Brigham and Women’s STRATUS Center
"You could...see how much students benefited from the environment, especially if they didn't necessarily fit in at their schools. Being a part of an environment that fostered learning just for the fun and love of education, seeing kids experiment and try new avenues they hadn't experienced before — all of this just felt like a really exciting place to be."
Aeronautical Engineering
Students catapult an eclectic array of objects using trebuchets to better understand the laws of physics.
Forensic Science
Students lift fingerprints from a variety of objects using forensic techniques to obtain the cleanest print, then compare samples against similar prints to find a “suspect.”
Medicine: First Aid + Clinical Skills
Students learn the kinds of injuries best treated by suturing, then break out the suture kits to practice some common stitching techniques.
Architecture
Students bring their structural designs into the real world by building scaled 3D models using professional architectural modeling materials, tools, and techniques.
