The Exploratorium will develop a series of Internet resources on three popular topics -- cooking, gardening, and making music -- to encourage users in science education activities in relation to daily activities. The three-year project will include the development and testing of resources that explore the science behind these topics, using the notion that we all, consciously or not, are "accidental scientists" who engage in the scientific process in the course of everyday life. Target audiences include general public adults and youth. Components of the site will feature aspects of cooking, gardening, and making music that are intended to appeal to diverse communities. The resources will also serve formal education through the Exploratorium's national and local network of educators.

探索馆将开发一系列有关烹饪、园艺和制作音乐这三个热门话题的互联网资源，鼓励用户在日常活动中进行科学教育活动。这个为期三年的项目将包括开发和测试探索这些主题背后的科学的资源，使用这样的概念，即我们所有人，无论有意无意，都是参与日常生活中科学过程的“偶然科学家”。目标受众包括普通大众、成年人和青少年。该网站的组成部分将以烹饪、园艺和制作音乐为特色，旨在吸引不同的社区。这些资源还将通过探索博物馆的国家和地方教育工作者网络为正规教育服务。
