SEED is bringing workshops and activities to students everywhere with a collection of SEEDKITS: self-contained activities designed to complement the SEED Online Science Center and that can be used at schools and in homes anywhere around the world. Volunteers that would like to get involved in hands-on school projects and teachers looking for fun activities for their students should take part.
Each SEEDKIT contains the documentation needed for students to run a project with a teacher or SEED volunteer, including a workshop overview and presentation, experiment instructions, and, in some cases, training videos. You can download SEEDKIT documentation from the SEED Web site, or you can order a CD/DVD from our online stores. Order SEEDKITS in seven languages from SWPS (Schlumberger employees only) or the SEEDSTORE. Some SEEDKITS require physical materials or activity parts, like the Fruit Power SEEDKIT and Solar Water Heater SEEDKIT. These items also can be procured through the SEED online stores, or sometimes from your local shops.
