Esplora’s team members have worked on videos, graphics and animations aimed at disseminating fun content online through Facebook, Instagram and Youtube whilst school kids are at home.
The Executive Chairman of the Malta Council for Science and Technology, Dr Jeffrey Pullicino Orlando, said that “due to the current situation we had to close our doors to visitors. It is thanks to science that we will overcome this situation. Science -knowledge- will also help us to protect ourselves and our loved ones. Our team at Esplora will still be reaching out to you online.”
As of Tuesday 17 March, Esplora’s aim is to stream online engaging content such as mini Fun Science Shows via Facebook Live as well as other varied content. Team members will also be working with PBS on this initiative to ensure that we reach as wide an audience as possible.
As an interactive science centre, Esplora is responding to current events and will also be dealing with Immunity and Health and Safety due to the present situation.
More experiments that can safely conducted at home, together with scientific facts and myth busters, will be shared in the coming days. In addition, every Friday, the Esplora programme development team will be speaking about interesting science projects through the blog.
