In this web seminar, educators were introduced to the Modeling Hot and Cold Planets
educator guide. They found out how to implement a lesson that allows students to
design an experiment to determine the factors having the greatest influence on the
temperature of a planet and to test their hypotheses using physical and computer
models.

This web seminar is part of a series of electronic professional development experiences
sponsored by the NASA Explorer Schools (NES) project. NES is NASA's classroom-based
gateway for middle school (grades 4-8) and high school (grades 9-12) classrooms
providing authentic learning experiences inspired by NASA's unique missions. NES
provides free teaching and learning resources that promote student engagement in
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics and opportunities for teachers
and students to participate in NASA's mission of research and discovery through
inquiry-based experiences directly related to the work of NASA scientists and engineers.
