Well this is not exactly the same thing, but at Colonial Williamsburg 
this year, one of our Electronic Field Trips was on science.  This is not 
actually at the museum, but an outreach program using films  and live 
segments broadcast by satelite from the museum.

   The program was The Pursuit of Science, and it was a mixture of 
scientific history and science itself.  I havfe done similiar things with 
math and science before, though usually it did still have a historic 
element.  Having children "chainmen" doing figures in an 18th century 
surveyiong program would be an example.
