Educator Workshop: Robotics and Our Solar System When: Saturday, Sept. 23, 8:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. Where: NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California Target Audience: Teachers for grades K-12 Overview: Explore activities and methods for bringing NASA engineering into the classroom. First, get an introduction to NASA science concepts from a JPL researcher, then use Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) to help students build models, make revisions and operate within real engineering constraints. This workshop is not available online; you must be physically present to participate. This workshop is limited to educators at U.S.-based institutions and organizations. › Register Online Questions? Call the Educator Resource Center at 818-393-5917. Can't attend the workshop? Explore these standards-aligned lessons and resources online. Lesson Collection: The Design Process – These standards-aligned lessons and activities get students using the engineering design process to launch rockets, build rovers, land "astronauts" and more.  Educator Tool: Engineering in the Classroom – Learn how the Next Generation Science Standards for Engineering are used at JPL and get activities and tips for bringing them into the classroom. NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, LEGO Education and the National Science Teachers Association have teamed up with the Los Angeles County Office of Education to offer a series of professional development workshops. This is the first of three, free half-day events focused on exciting science themes and designed to help teachers bring NGSS practices into the classroom. Hosted by experts, each workshop will be an opportunity to see real-world applications of NGSS, ensuring meaningful context to take back to your students. Upcoming series workshops:  Earth Science – Jan. 20, 2018 Promoting STEAM – April 14, 2018 Check NASA/JPL Edu Events as the workshop dates near for more details and registration info.
