The Texas High School Aerospace Scholars project is an
interactive on-line science, technology, engineering and mathematics learning
experience for high school juniors, culminating in a one-week residential
experience at NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston. Offered at no cost to the student, HAS
consists of eight online modules and a final project from January 2013 through
May 2013 under the guidance of Texas certified educators. Based on success in the online coursework,
students may be selected to attend a week during the summer where they interact
with NASA scientists, engineers and technologists to design a human mission to
Mars. Students who successfully
participate in the online lessons and attend the summer experience are eligible
to ask their high school for science elective credit.
Please direct students or other educators to the website
for project information and application, http://has.aerospacescholars.org.
The deadline for the application and supporting documentation is midnight CST,
December 16, 2012.
The project is sponsored by NASA and funded by the State
of Texas, Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, and Rotary NASA, at no cost to the
participants.
