Foundation president, Harvey Fineberg, and chairman emeritus and co-founder, Gordon Moore, discuss the Statement of Founders’ Intent with staff.
This grant to the Exploratorium supports the development and display of an innovative new method of teaching spatial and geometric concepts involving "immersive" geometric exhibits and educational curriculum. Results from the grant will be to increase the mathematical and spatial reasoning skills in over 16,000 Bay Area students and will be measured by changes in students’ math and spatial reasoning skills using comparative qualitative and quantitative research tools.
Thank you for sharing.
