The Science Behind Pixar exhibition has been designed to let visitors experience the art, science, computer science, and math that Pixar uses to create their groundbreaking films. This website features some of the activities, videos, and images from the exhibition that describe the math, computer science, and science that go into making computer animated films. This exhibition was developed by the Museum of Science, Boston in collaboration with Pixar Animation Studios. There are free materials for hands-on, unplugged activities to use with this virtual exhibit at http://sciencebehindpixar.org/educators.
Closed Facebook group for K-12 educators so that teachers can share their experiences with digital learning plans and support each other. We're releasing a series of free online lessons through this platform that can be immediately distributed to students to ease the load on teachers and provide students with engaging content on media literacy. Our first lesson, Detecting Bias: Taking in the News From All Sides, is now available through the group's page and will help students critically evaluate news coverage. We've released a lesson on what social distancing is and how to build a plan to thrive in a world that feels isolated. More to come in the weeks ahead.
