位于旧金山的加州科学院是一家主要的自然历史机构，它将开发一个关于进化的大型永久展览-生命通过时间，将向参观者展示鼓励他们触摸和探索的一系列展品，并向他们提供信息和挑战。展览将涵盖地球上生命的历史，科学家如何识别和评估随时间发生的变化，发现的科学方法和过程，以及进化的影响。与教师培训课程一起，将开发一套教师教育资源包，其中包括实践材料，供学校使用。展览将吸引相当多的观众，每年有超过100万零1人次参观。此外，每年有44%的旧金山小学生受到学院讲解员的访问，移动教室覆盖了7,000名旧金山湾区居民，超过5,000名儿童和成年人在学院上课，每年有10,000名学生参观博物馆。

The California Academy of Sciences, a major natural history institution located in San Francisco, will develop Life Through Time, a large permanent exhibition on evolution that will inform and challenge visitors as they "walk through" a series of exhibits which encourages them to touch and explore. The exhibition will cover the history of life on earth, how scientists recognize and evaluate change through time, the scientific method and process of discovering, and the impact of evolution. A teacher's educational resource kit with hands-on materials will be developed for use in the schools along with teacher training courses. The exhibition will reach a substantial audience, over a million and a half visitors per year. Additionally, 44% of the San Francisco elementary school children are visited each year by Academy docents, the mobile classroom reaches 7,000 Bay Area residents, over 5,000 children and adults take classes at the Academy and 10,000 school children visit the museum each year.
