After the Program
At the conclusion of the presentation the group is released to the general supervision of the attending teachers and chaperones. The tour is self-guided as students explore the museum and answer their field trip questionnaires. In some cases, there will be a museum volunteer who accompanies the group to help navigate the museum.
Field Trip Questionnaires
Each student will receive a field trip questionnaire to be completed while touring the building. The Hall of Fame also supplies pencils to the students. The questionnaires are designed to encourage students to interact with the Hall's colorful and exciting exhibits while practicing such critical thinking skills as comparing, hypothesizing, evaluating and conceptualizing. Questionnaires are grade appropriate. Copies will be provided the day of the visit to the group.
