Promoting Math and Science On The Wings Of Space
Flight
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and NASA have joined forces
in a new five-year project that will train 10,000 high school
teachers how to make math and science more appealing by using human
space flight and exploration materials in their classrooms.
The project, part of an Embry-Riddle initiative called
TeachSpace, will offer an intensive three-day workshop to talented,
motivated teachers of high school math, science, and technology.
Teachers selected for the three-day summer workshops will receive
housing, meals, a $100 daily stipend, and one hour of graduate
credit.
Workshops for up to 20 teachers each will be held on the
campuses of Embry-Riddle. The first workshops will take place in
July 200
