The collection includes 300,000 web based materials, guidelines for the realization of both physical and virtual educational field trips (connected to the school curriculum or more open), lesson plans and relevant educational materials, professional development and training materials, educational projects and activities for schools, families and individuals, digital images of exhibits, videos and animations of physical phenomena and instructional descriptions and thousands of electronic publications on topics raging from everyday science topics to issues concerning scientific research.
