Engineering Design Challenge: Lunar Plant Growth Chamber
|
Participants of this web seminar learned how to incorporate exciting space exploration
problems into their technology and life science classes. Teachers found out how
they can use the engineering design process to have students design, build, and
evaluate the effectiveness of a lunar plant growth chambers while engaging them
in research and standards-based learning experiences.

This web seminar is part of a series of electronic professional development experiences
sponsored by the NASA Explorer Schools (NES) project. NASA Explorer Schools invests
in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics educators to inspire and engage
a whole generation of future scientists, engineers and technicians that NASA needs
to continue our journey. NES gives educators of grades 4-12 free access to NASA’s
people, missions, research, and facilities. We take the work out of searching through
thousands of materials on the NASA website and provide a comprehensive set of teaching
materials for dozens of STEM concepts. For additional information about the NASA
Explorer Schools project, visit
