Science, Exploration, Education, and Storytelling using Foldscopes in Rural Kenya

This project is funded by National Geographic's COVID-19 Remote Learning Emergency Fund for Educators Grant. The main focus of this project was to design 10 lesson plans that would help bring the world of microscopy to students and help them bridge their personal experiences to a more global perspective on critical issues such as understanding the role of microorganisms in the ecosystem. We did this by providing students with direct access to the microscopic world using a flexible and easy-to-use Foldscopes and developing curricula together with Science teachers. With the development of these resources, we now aim to disseminate these lesson plans and continue working with teachers to incorporate more microscopy exploratory activities into curricula. We also intend to grow educational activities that will help grow a community of explorers in Africa and beyond that use inexpensive resources such as Foldscopes that bring joy into learning.
