NASA CONNECT is a series of, 30-minute instructional programs that use NASA projects, facilities, and researchers to enhance the teaching of elementary (grades 4-5) and middle school (grades 6-8) math and science. NASA CONNECT links math and science concepts and skills to the workplace, joins classrooms with NASA researchers, and supports national math and science standards. Each program includes a lesson, a classroom experiment, and a Web-based, on-line, interactive component. NASA CONNECT is produced by the NASA Langley Office of Education, with support for online activities provided by the LTP. All NASA CONNECT resources are free; there are no fees or charges associated with the program or Web site. Educators are encouraged to tape the broadcast (which are available through many PBS affiliates and NASA TV) and copy the teacher materials.
