Philippine Science Centrum | Interactive and hands-on museum

Aside from growing, learning should not stop as well, this is one of the training that I am still carrying as of today. Even though I am now currently working, acquiring new things and bumping into unknown waters still excites me. Graduating from college was one of the best feelings I felt where I thought studying, home works and the burden of learning things thru not your preferred ways are needed, but I was wrong. I thought the hardships of the term we so call "school" was finished, but then again I was wrong. Now, I realized that learning must be a continuous development like change where it is constant.

In looking on the other side of it, learning must not be solely associated with work, hardship, and boredom. Learning can be fun in ways where one can enjoy the experience, and our next feature is one great example of this.

Introducing the Philippine Science Centrum, also known as PSC is a 2,500 sq/m facility that can accommodate about 3,000 guests in a day or 500 visitors in any given time slot. They are located at Riverbanks Center.

The PSC is a recognized hands-on science center museum by the Department of Education (DOE), Department of Tourism (DOT) and Department of Science and Technology (DOST) as a great place of learning for school field trips and a good venue for a fun-filled group tour destination for everybody.

PSC is open to the general public hence not limiting anybody to visit.

The Philippine Science Centrum has over hundreds of hands-on exhibits categorized in eleven (11) exciting galleries (Bodyworks, Lights, Electricity & Magnetism, Mathematics, Vision and Perception, Infectious Diseases, Water, Earth Science, Kids’ World, Mechanics and Space) and a lot of educationally fun activities, socially-responsible programs and trainings complementing the DOE‘s K to 12 education curriculum on upgrading the level of science education in the Philippines.

Some of their main attractions are as follows:

Van Degraaff Generator

Bernouli Blower

Frozen Shadow

When I visited the place, first I noticed is their schedule - it is jam-packed where reservation is I think recommended before going to the place. Other than that, all things are good; The area is very spacious, clean and comfortable to go around to. There is a lot of awesome stuff to see where everywhere you go there are some things to deal with every time.

Those were the times that reading such written materials (explaining different phenomenons with the help of science) is not that boring to read because you know you can experience it in that particular moment. When you truly understand what really happens behind our weather, climates, natural phenomenons and natural disasters, when explained in detail, that is where we appreciate it more looking at it never as the same as before. Those are the times as well that we thought of things that may prevent it from happening or otherwise do such things to avoid being too much affected by its negative effects.

I am sure that not only the kids will enjoy their experience inside the museum but their parents as well since they know that the fun their children are experiencing is bagged with new learning to take home. You'll not get bored inside the museum other than walking towards the next attraction, very nice, isn't it?

But wait there's more! PSC also offers other services such as rental of exhibits for corporate & school events, venue for birthday celebrations, training, seminars, and other science-related events. The PSC is the flagship program of the PFST or Philippine Foundation for Science and Technology, a private foundation engaged in promoting science education in the Philippines.
