An educational program based on anthropological and biological research designed for students and adults of all ages. Teaches visitors about the origin of humans on earth and the importance and significance of both biological and cultural diversity. In each lab, visitors have hands-on involvement with the materials presented through a process known as experimental learning. Visitors work in close association with The Center 's staff and interact in small groups.
Visitors go through a series of learning stations.
Each station experience lasts approximately 30 minutes. To date, over 3,000 visitors have come through the labs. We have hosted 3rd through 12th grade students, collegiate students, and other adult groups. This population includes ESL students, those enrolled in alternative education, incarcerated youth, deaf and hard of hearing, and learning and behaviorally disabled students. Operated by the School of Education and the Department of Anthropology.
