EdExploreSRQ.com was created in partnership with the Sarasota County Schools, the Arts and Cultural Alliance of Sarasota County, the Science and Environment Council of Sarasota County, and the Patterson Foundation. EdExploreSRQ.com is an online resource that supports the needs of K-12 teachers by providing centralized access to explorations, such as field trips and classroom resources, and curricular support offered by area arts, science and history organizations for students. The explorations align to state instructional standards, thereby ensuring that the programs help students learn the content they are expected to master during the school year. The website allows teachers to search for explorations by criteria such as grade level, subject matter or benchmarks, and to find possible sources of funding for student participation. |

Inventors Wanted!
Have you ever wanted to invent something—and build it from scratch?
Around the world, citizen scientists and grassroots tinkerers are doing exactly that. You name it, they’re building it—from a lawn-mowing robot to a GPS sheep tracker to an alarm clock that crawls away when you hit the snooze alarm. Often, the place they’re building these gadgets is in a fabrication laboratory—or “fab lab” for short.
Who can work in the Fab Lab?
YOU!
How?
