| Science Exhibition Programmes | | | Exhibitions are the principal means used by the Science Centre for the effective communication of science to visitors, both local and foreign. The themes of exhibitions are generally pertinent to educational, economic, social or technological developments in Singapore. There are more than 7,500 sq. m of exhibition space devoted to the exploration of various topics in science and technology. Currently, the Centre houses more than 700 exhibits in its exhibition halls, with each exhibit being an incubator of scientific knowledge.
Almost all the exhibition themes in the various galleries are related to the science syllabi of schools and the exhibits serve as excellent materials for complementing science teaching in primary and secondary schools as well as junior colleges. The exhibits are also visually aesthetic and inviting for visitors of all ages. In designing and fabricating the exhibits, a delicate balance is struck between the educational aspect and entertainment value of the display -- this is to capture the visitor's attention and hold his interest long enough for him to explore and understand what the exhibits are trying to convey. With interactive exhibits to touch, see and hear, students would have a better understanding of the scientific principles involved and, at the same time, appreciate the impact of scientific and technological advances on their lives.
All exhibits in the galleries are self-explanatory. Exhibit worksheets are also available to school groups upon request.
