2001 NASA Educational Workshops
Our Workshop Mission
Our team is dedicated to helping NEW participants develop an understanding of past and current NASA research across all enterprises, as that research is relevant to classroom instruction in science, math, technology and other subjects.
Workshop Objectives
Participants will be immersed in the Dryden culture to develop an understanding of how a NASA Center works and to experience first-hand how math, science and technology are applied.
They will develop an understanding of how to access NASA programs, products and services after they leave the workshop setting. Participants will also develop personalized and individualized action plans.
