T&L 2900: NASA-in-the-Classroom Educator PD Workshop Space Science Activities
This hands-on workshop is funded by NASA's National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program. The overall goal of this workshop is to share new teaching strategies in support of different learning modalities in NASA and STEM lessons and activities for both K-12 and informal education settings. The 2025 workshop will focus on new and innovative technologies to integrate into the classroom. Participants will be eligible to earn two Professional Development credits (30 hours) through the University of North Dakota. Workshop participants will participate in hands-on STEM investigations, tour research labs at UAF, and develop lesson plans relevant to their learners. Educators' experiences will lead to rich discussion on how to improve STEM pedagogy. Participants' feedback will also influence future iterations of NASA lesson plans. Educators will network with STEM-passionate educators and researchers.
Pre-workshop Homework:
Locate an existing STEM lesson plan. Throughout the workshop, we will integrate various strategies and tools into the lesson to incorporate different learning modalities for your group of learners. Please upload your lesson plan and bring a hard copy with you to the workshop.
