Project Description: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
||
|
Hands on interactive laboratory for kindergarten - 12th grade students with emphasis on middle school children. Using aviation and aerospace-related interactive activities the students will learn applied mathematics and science, as well as explore various careers in highly technical areas. |

Measurable Outcome Anticipated: |
|
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Expect thousands of middle school youth to learn about careers in aviation and aerospace. By participating interactively at the workstations, the students will have the opportunity to apply math and science theory and skills. This will teach them the relevancy of the theory they had learned in their classroom environment prior to visiting the activity center. Another outcome will be more students enrolling in math and science high school classes as a result of the motivation the activity center provides. This activity center will be a State of Florida resource. |
