NASA Announces Explorer Schools Program
Reaffirming its commitment to education, NASA is announcing the new NASA
Explorer Schools (NES) program, which replaces
its existing NASA Educational Workshops (NEW).
Administered by NSTA, the Explorer Schools program encourages teams of 4-5
science, mathematics, and technology educators
from a school or district to apply for a three-year partnership with NASA.
Educators will receive NASA-unique scientific content,
advanced technological tools, and sustained professional development to develop
rich learning opportunities in mathematics, science,
and technology. An exciting component of the program will engage students and
parents. Fifty school teams will be selected for the 2003
program.
For details and an application, visit http://explorerschools.nasa.gov. Deadline
for entries is April 4.
