$2000 Stipend for 9-12 Science Teachers

Eyes in the Sky II is a long-term professional development program that prepares high school science teachers to use NASA data and visualizations along with other geospatial information technologies. Throughout the program, teachers and students investigate both global and local environmental issues.

The program includes four parts:

1) a 12-week online Web course, consisting of three 4-week modules;

2) a 7-day face-to-face summer workshop held onsite at a NASA research center;
Note, you need provide own transportation to workshop site.

3) one year of classroom implementation, ending with a virtual student showcase; and

4) an ambassador program for providing professional development for other teachers in participants’ schools or districts.

Teachers receive a $2000 stipend.
