Portable science sets

Investigate It portable science set

At-Bristol and the Science Learning Centre South West have developed a unique collection of portable science sets designed to encourage active discovery-based learning in children of all ages.

 

The sets give students the opportunity to explore scientific phenomena through a collection of stimulating and engaging science centre style portable interactive mini-exhibits.

They are designed to develop important observational and critical thinking skills and to inspire students to discover more for themselves.

The current sets are made up of a number of thematically linked mini-exhibits covering the following topics:

The portable interactive mini-exhibits are primarily intended to extend the reach of the hands-on science centre, taking exciting science to schools and colleges that would find it difficult to visit. Investigate It portable science set easily fits into the boot of a car.

They can however be used in many different ways or environments with a variety of audiences - all that is required is a table and access to a mains electricity supply.

Each set easily fits into the boot of a car.
