Educational Services

The Educational Services of the Museo di Scienze Naturali of Brescia are proposed as a link between the scientific and naturalistic culture and the educational experiences of literacy and naturalistic, environmental and ecological study.

The objective is to support the development of a natural heritage education, with a focus on the environment, ecosystems, geo-biodiversity and sustainability, in line with the project “UnFilo Naturale” (“A Natural Thread”). A community that participates in transforming the challenge of climate change into an opportunity.

The educational role of the Museum and its relational approach highlight the value:

  • of the participation of children and young people through workshop-based activities designed for and with schools and groups, within a context oriented toward listening, dialogue, direct experience of the tangible world, and the construction and sharing of scientific-naturalistic knowledge and current sustainability issues;

  • of the engagement and broad participation of families with children in the life of the museum service.

The idea is to gather children and young people who are active, sensitive, competent holders of rights and builders of meanings.

The laboratories proposed allow participants to experience significant aspects of the scientific method: observation, analysis, connection and understanding through direct experimentation, reflection and discussion. The Museum promotes and cultivates different ways of relating to the world of life. The direct experience of the perceptible world is combined with the educational experience and together they aim at developing a scientific investigation habit. The nature “teaches” the value of knowledge, utility, beauty and care, presenting itself through its simple complexity to be discovered and investigated.
