Educators are tasked with an enormous responsibility: to teach STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) disciplines physically and virtually to an ever difficult-to-reach classroom.

We make that task a bit less daunting by delivering hands-on, inquiry-based learning opportunities that apply to real-world situations. Using the automobile as the base for learning, we not only present lessons in a way that students understand, we also ignite the imagination of new auto enthusiasts.

Bring state-of-the-art technology and interactive exhibitry to a museum-based classroom that connects STEM disciplines and real-world applications.

Create hands-on STEM activities, curriculum and online content for learners of all ages.

Fuel the imagination and spark the inspiration of students from underserved communities by underwriting school field trips and other educational outreach with community partners, such as Boys and Girls Clubs.

Teach young people valuable life skills, exploring potential career paths and connecting with mentors.

FUELING STEM INNOVATION FOR SCHOOLS

Our outreach curriculum currently reaches more than 15,000 3rd- through 8th-grade students each year with hour-long sessions followed by museum visits. Increase in our ability to scale this curriculum to serve more schools and students across North America.

ONLINE LEARNING

Create online learning and downloadable lessons for teachers and parents. Organize high school influencers to build online content and digital engagement around the evolution of automotive technology and the future of transportation.

FAMILY EDUCATION NIGHTS

These free, family-friendly monthly events are where Museum visitors of all ages can participate in fun science-based activities, like bridge building and egg crash tests.

POWERING THE FUTURE LEARNING LAB

Enabling young people to explore the evolution of auto technology and the future of sustainable transportation, the Learning Lab provides for hands-on interactives and data-rich discovery. Upcoming additions will include the Innovation Center and Makers’ Space for after-school robotics programs and youth car clubs; virtual reality simulators; and smart phone-guided exhibits that help students understand the interconnectivity of science, engineering, arts, and math.
