Abstract:
Community Coordinated Modeling Center (CCMC) has developed a comprehensive set of tools and applications that are directly applicable to space weather and space science education.

These tools, some of which were developed by our student interns, are capable of serving a wide range of student audiences, from middle school to postgraduate research. They include a web-based point of access to sophisticated space physics models and visualizations, and a powerful space weather information dissemination system, available on the web and as a mobile app.

In this demonstration, we will use CCMC’s innovative tools to engage the audience in real-time space weather analysis and forecasting and will share some of our interns’ hands-on experiences while being trained as junior space weather forecasters.

The main portals to CCMC's educational material are ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov and iswa.gsfc.nasa.gov
