Curriculum
NASA Langley Research Center's Office of Education and
Atmospheric Sciences Division will host a regional education forum
August 9 to 11. The forum will focus on incorporating global
environmental change issues into educational programs. These issues
are related to NASA's Mission to Planet Earth studies.
Five representatives from each of seven states, including
Virginia, will meet at NASA Langley and the Virginia Air and Space
Center to discuss how to incorporate environmental change knowledge
into local science curriculum. The state teams are comprised of
scientists, educators, and administrators.
The forum will begin August 9 at noon with an opening address by
NASA Langley director Paul Holloway. The forum will take place in
room 200, Bldg. 1212, 17 West Taylor St. Other forums will take
place simultaneously at six other NASA centers.
