A New Place to Learn

The challenge of the Selfridge Military Air Museum is to inspire the next generation of aviation innovators. The museum recently completed a large 50 foot by 80 foot hangar, which is now the home of the museum’s Aviation Education Center. The purpose of which is to introduce students to the world of aviation, integrating the STEAM approach to teaching.

The Aviation Education Center incorporates distant learning technologies which allow students to participate in the museum programs from their classrooms. Also a flexible on-site classroom environment will accomodate class field trip experiences.
