| If you read Scientific American, the Exploratorium is "the best science museum in the world" -- a scientific funhouse and an experimental laboratory all rolled into one. With over 650 hands-on exhibits, it is known as the world's first and foremost interactive museum. It is also, through its new National Center for Inquiry, a leader in the field of inquiry-based education, one of only five sites of its kind in the nation funded by the National Science Foundation. The Exploratorium is dedicated to teacher education and science education reform and offers in-depth institutes for teachers, administrators, and others from around the country. For more information, visit the Exploratorium's highly popular interactive website, which gets over 1 million "hits" every month.
