EarthWorks Overview
A crisis is coming to a crescendo in the wetlands. A flood has washed away surface soils and drastic erosion is occurring. Excited young scientists gameplan solutions to save the ecosystem at EarthWorks.
EarthWorks is an innovative, hands-on Immersive Learning product of Experiencia, Inc. Through a partnership with the Family Resource Center of New England homeschooling student scientists ages 8-11 will work together at EarthWorks in Taylor, MI to restore the life-sustaining levels in four North American habitats.
Student scientists are prepared through 40 hours of on-line curriculum to immerse themselves in "on-the-job- training." They explore 25 different scientific careers in a full-day experience at the EarthWorks facility.
Homeschooling students in elementary grades become environmental scientists at EarthWorks, where they work together in four lifelike habitats filled with live animals, dramatic natural events and state-of-the- art scientific equipment. They are challenged to use these tools and their knowledge to rebalance the ecosystems.
