Science on the Move

Science on the Move K-12 STEM outreach program at Florida State University. Bringing innovative physical science investigations to K-12 classrooms.

The mission of Science on the Move is to both inspire students and support teachers in STEM education. The program provides resources, materials and training on innovative physical science investigations. These blend content with scientific practices and link learning to real-world experiences. Science on the Move serves elementary, middle and high school students. The program is offered free of charge to the Big Bend region surrounding Tallahassee, Florida, for in person visits and Florida-wide for virtual visits. Science on the Move is a collaboration between the Office of STEM Teaching Activities and the Department of Physics at Florida State University. The program began in 2000 under the direction of Lance King and has impacted the lives of over 100,000 students and teachers.
