The goal of this project was to create a portable, hands-on STEM water exhibit and educational kits for the Santa Fe Children’s Museum (SFCM) to promote water conservation and understanding of the water system in Santa Fe. The project aligns with the SFCM’s mission of fostering learning, play, and community, specifically addressing water supply and usage issues in the city of Santa Fe. Through a mixed methods approach, the team evaluated the design elements for effective water exhibits, clarified the educational goals and exhibit design criteria, and developed, tested, and refined prototype exhibit elements and educational kits. We assembled 140 kits for the SFCM to distribute and recommended how the museum could further evaluate and improve the kits and exhibit in the future.
