Description

This external study by J. Sickler Consulting, LLC. explores findings from the evaluation of the Unseen Oceans temporary exhibit, which ran from March 2018 - August 2019. This exhibition sought to spark excitement about ocean exploration, spotlight the work of scientists, demonstrate the diversity of habitats within a vast ocean, and highlight the impact of human activities. Using a suite of qualitative and quantitative methods, the multi-pronged summative evaluation study was designed to address targeted evaluation questions and provide overarching insights about the impact of the exhibition and associated teacher and public programs.
