How Can We Help Educators? As NASA explores frontiers of science, math, and technology, it seeks to assist teachers and students to explore them as well. NASA also seeks to encourage youth to explore careers in math, science, and technology. Through its broad dissemination network, NASA provides educational materials, information, services, and other resources to our nation's classrooms. Educator Resource Centers are a part of this network who serve both formal educators (public school teachers) and informal educators (homeschool parents, etc.) for the state in which they reside. To better understand how NASA can help educators, we invite you to read "NASA Education Communication Strategy," an Acrobat PDF file. If you have further questions about NASA or its mission, need NASA related classroom materials such as lesson plans, pictures, videos, computer software, help with workshops, etc., please contact the center for your region. Your local Educator Resource Center can best help you with educational needs specific to your state's standards and objectives. A complete list of addresses and contacts can be found at the NASA website. You'll also want to visit the large collection of resources at the NASA Central Operation of Resources for Educators (CORE) website and NASA's main website. Now, whenever NASA releases new educational materials to the public, you can learn of and access these materials easily. Join the EXPRESS mailing list for educators to receive announcements of new NASA education publications, Central Operation of Resources for Educators (CORE) multimedia materials, and other opportunities for educators.
