Learning Outcomes

The goal of the institute is to develop exemplary science lessons modeling the use of NASA content and resources. These exemplary lessons will benefit: (1) Science and liberal studies majors, whose instructors present student opportunities to use NASA content and resources, (2) Science methods students (elementary and secondary) whose instructors model the implementation of NASA content and resources into the curriculum, and link it to the California Academic Content Standards, and (3) K-12 teachers, who address the California Academic Content Standards with real-time data, and other NASA content and resources.<
