A River Runs Through It
University of Dayton - RiverMobile
|
In mid 2012, Exhibit Concepts, Inc. and students from the University of Dayton's Rivers Institute teamed-up to design a vision: to educate schoolchildren about the history, benefits and preservation of the Great Miami River watershed.
The vision was realized in early 2013 and The RiverMobile hit the road. Converted from a 53' semi-trailer, this mobile classroom makes the rivers more accessible to the region's schoolchildren and teaches them about their role in protecting local waterways. |
The RiverMobile consists of five learning zones that were designed to meet Ohio Science and History education standards for sixth to eighth graders. Each zone illustrates a unique aspect of the Great Miami River watershed: geology, anatomy of an aquifer, natural habitat and wildlife, river geography and global impact.
Each zone includes simple hands-on activities, engaging video presentations, colorful murals, theatrical lighting and natural scenic elements. |
As one of the key contributors to the project, Exhibit Concepts donated design services and was contracted for converting the trailer, fabricating the exhibits, designing and producing the graphics, developing multi-media and wrapping the exterior of the trailer with graphics.
The RiverMobile will be a key asset to fulfilling the mission of the Rivers Institute and we are proud to have worked with such a talented group of students on such an important initiative.
