Visit and critique at least two sites from the list below (Exhibits and Exploratoriums). This group includes a variety of interactive exhibits, many of which are science oriented. Athenaeum for Children - Museum of Finnish Art with collection organized for children by concept. Dance of Chance:Exhibit Hall - The Dance of Chance exhibit is a collaboration between the Center for Polymer Studies at Boston University and the Boston Museum of Science. The exhibit is based on current research pursued by CPS scientists, their collaborators, and modern scientists around the world. The focus of the exhibit is the emergence of patterns in Nature from physical and biological processes which on the microscopic level appear to be dominated by chance.
