The National Science and Technology Medals Foundation builds inclusive STEM communities across the United States. To increase visitor engagement in understanding different scientific principles, this project built web-based scientific interactive experiences (labs) integrated directly into the NationalMedals.org website. The 3 "labs" were related to principles of gravity, sight and sound.
The project required technical oversight to integrate with the existing content and website, and push the envelope of what Javascript could do.
The resulting gamified experiences increased visitor engagement, to learn the process of science along with information about the medals and their winners.
