The group has developed a set of questions to pilot with several groups who have worked with NSF funding to increase access. These include:
- What are good examples of accessible informal science education-exhibits, programs, other media?
- What are relationships among people and projects? Could we map these?
- Why is it that efforts to expand access to informal science education (ISE) experiences are so often not sustained? What are institutional barriers? What conditions appear to make it likelier that such efforts will be sustained?
- What recommendations do we have for the field?
