Project Title: STEM-Focused Programming For Middle and High School Students.
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Orion\u2019s Quest (OQ) is a non-profit, 501c3, that provides education outreach to researchers whose study is currently being conducted aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Our primary audience is classroom teachers and their students, who receive our program at no cost. Established in 2004, OQ has served over 450 teachers in forty-one states and 11 countries, empowering more than 60,000 students by actively involving them in world-class research being conducted on ISS. Although we currently focus on middle and high school students, a facet of our \u201ccore mission\u201d is to expand the number of participants and include a K-5 component consisting of age-appropriate STEM programming based on the input and recommendations of K-5 classroom teachers.<\/p>\n
Internet-based and managed, Orion\u2019s Quest partners with researchers from academia, industry, and private institutions to create an education program that meets the scientist’s needs while addressing the requirements of today\u2019s classroom based on National Science Teaching Standards.<\/p>\n
OQ provides all curriculum via video\/digital downlinked from ISS. With 20 years of exceptional educational outreach experience, OQ has established a reputation as a leader in STEM education. Students worldwide are actively involved in observation, analysis, and creating hypotheses. OQ\u2019s inclusive program provides any necessary classroom support materials with the aid of a dedicated OQ staff member who assists the teacher. Students can hone their STEM skills throughout this project while actively engaging in today\u2019s Space Program. <\/p>\n
To continue providing this unique and beneficial program at no cost, Orion\u2019s Quest is requesting $5,000. We want teachers to teach and not deal with the distractions of trying to find funding through activities that take their focus away from their students\u2019 academic goals. Your support will be an investment toward making STEM accessible to students nationwide and globally, increasing their skills in creativity, innovation, and team-building.\n<\/p>\n
