Educator Comments:
We began doing Distance Learning programs with the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History last year. I know any program I book with them will be informative and enjoyed by both students and teachers. Teachers are requesting and recommending programs they have previously taken part in. FWMSH does an excellent job of interacting with the student and keeping their attention. They are willing to work with the teachers schedule to make the programs work. All of my experiences have been positive. The student is their main focus.

I was extremely pleased with the program. The Museum's staff kept the students totally engaged with her activities and her questioning style. My students haven't stopped talking about it yet.


The Fort Worth Museum of Science and History provides great materials to teachers for use before, during, and after the videoconference. The videoconferences have enriched my students' understanding of different concepts. Museum instructors have accomodated my teaching schedule to allow all my students in different classes to participate.


I have never seen a bad program from this provider. The content is great. The presenters are some of the best I've seen and they know how to engage the students. All their programs are interactive and require good student participation. Students leave the sessions but continue discussing what they learned. Students also receive a free admission ticket to the museum which I think is a great way to encourage parents to take their children.
