Science Buzz

The Science Museum of Minnesota's current science web community.

by bryan kennedy last modified 2007-03-02 11:33

Some time today, you'll probably hear or read a news story related to questions, discoveries, or claims made by scientists. But what do these discoveries and questions mean to you? To our society? To the world? You've probably heard a lot of conflicting or incomplete science information in the news, too. This can be frustrating or confusing. Science is a messy process. And many of us don't know how to be savvy consumers of science information.

We're trying to create exhibits and web content that offer opportunities to dig deeper into science headlines, and give you a chance to talk with each other and with scientists about your questions and concerns.

Interactivity

I really like this idea of building up a community and like how the user input can be fun based (see the comments on 'guess the object' section) as well as serious. People love to joke around - why not give them the opportunity to do so.
