For years EiE^®, Museum of Science, Boston has been partnering with National Grid to make an important impact in the lives of thousands of students and educators across the country. Through this partnership we’ve been able to provide world-class professional development to educators and distribute free engineering and computer science activities to make an impact in the classroom. 

Learners who are ready to make advancements that will shape the rest of the century and beyond tend to be excited by flexible, open-ended, project-based, real-world learning situations. These types of problem-solving opportunities not only teach content skills, but instill curiosity, which is fundamental to lifelong learning, and help to develop communication and teamwork skills — as well as the freedom and responsibility that comes from taking charge of their own learning.

As educators, we know the importance of providing students with a well-rounded education that prepares them for success in the real world. We also want them excited and engaged along the way. One sure way to achieve this is through cross-curricular integration. Cross-curricular integration is the practice of connecting a topic which is traditionally taught as a stand-alone subject - such as ELA, math, science, social studies, engineering, or computer science - to a different subject area.

While we create our resources with your classroom’s success in mind, no one knows your learners like you do. That’s why we make sure our products are adaptable to suit your needs!

Recently, one of our expert educators spent months coordinating with educators in Paris and Lebanon to bring EiE® units to classrooms in Beirut — that had an “impact beyond expectations,” according to educators there.
