Call to Action: NASA Science and Learning Collaborations II


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 59324

Session Description:
The purpose of this session is to make connections with NASA science activation, collaboration, and learning initiatives.  Free resources are available, but we need broader participation with STEM experts to ensure effectiveness is achieved in a sustainable way for all learners.  Leveraging resources is the cornerstone of NASA Science Mission Directorate's vision for reaching broad audiences.  But are we doing enough in the areas of STEM equity, reaching underserved communities, and supporting those who learn differently?  Join us in the movement of enabling new approaches to learning.  We aim to answer questions like: What are we doing now?  What should we be doing?  What is working?  What are some innovative ways we can approach future challenges?  What does success look like?  By fostering communication and collaboration across the STEM learning ecosystem, we seek to share new ideas and methodologies and together, advance STEM learning and literacy for all learners.
