Applications due April 14^th.

The NASA Glenn Research Center Office of Education is soliciting applications from youth-serving organizations (YSOs) and formal/informal education institutions in NASA Glenn’s six-state service region (IL, IN, MI, MN, OH, WI). This solicitation is requesting proposals to implement STEM content in out-of-school time (OST) settings for students in grades 5-9 from June 1, 2019 through August 31, 2019 using the new NASA Glenn Engineering Design Challenge (EDC): Spacecraft Safety or the Make it NASA: How Would You Measure the Moon? activity. This content received via this opportunity will allow students to work on real-world problems in a collaborative, team-based environment. Students apply lessons learned to solve problems that STEM professionals may face while gaining a deeper knowledge of how NASA is a part of their everyday lives.
