KID Museum (kid-museum.org) activates students to become “makers” who build agency, confidence and creative problem-solving skills. While the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted its traditional programs, KID Museum moved quickly to design virtual offerings that introduce students to STEM and 21st-century skills in coding, design engineering and 3D modeling, preserving the museum’s signature inquiry- and exploration-based approach in a remote learning environment.
