Hope CSI: Interactive Science ShowsHow They WorkOur interactive science shows can be done in a classroom setting or an assembly setting. Shows typically last 20 to 30 minutes presented by Hope College student volunteers (with supervising faculty) and encourage audience participation when it is safe and appropriate. Each show includes a list of MI Physics High School Content Expectations (HSCEs) that are covered. Please see our list of Classroom Activity Resources that can complement school visits.
