As the new St. Croix Crossing Bridge rose from the St. Croix River, the school district and project partners realized the great opportunity to engage curious students with real-world science and engineering going on in their backyard. MnDOT partnered with other organizations to create an iPad-based interactive program to integrate bridge architecture, design, and engineering into a school curriculum.
Project partners include:
- MnDOT
- WisDOT
- Stillwater Area Public Schools
- Partnership Plan for Stillwater Schools
- Andersen Corporate Foundation
- Hamline University Center for Global Environmental Education
