Good session yesterday from representatives of Nasa/Goddard that I wasn’t able to post at the time. They have a tool called My Nasa Data. Very cool online tool that provides “micro-sets” of data that students can work with. Includes leveled data sets for elementary/intermediate/advanced. Includes a science glossary and pulls its data from a range of satellites including weather data. Students can find science project ideas and teachers can browse through tons of pre-developed lesson plans. Also mentioned a ‘mentor network’ where users can sign up to be a mentor or can ask a question at the website. Check it out.
