Abstract
This thesis combines concepts from art and science museum education to create an accessible education program titled “Let’s Leap!”. The program is designed to meet the needs of all learners with special attention to the Autism Spectrum Disorder community. I have selected three major methodologies as vehicles for teaching. The methodologies are the universal design for learning by Anne Meyer and David Gordon, visual thinking strategies formulated by Phillip Yenawine and Abigail Housen, and the 5Es designed by the Biological Sciences Curriculum Study.
