Education and Public Outreach Goal E/PO Program Education and Public Outreach Goal We will utilize the observations and scientific discoveries of the GLAST mission to improve the understanding and utilization of science and mathematics concepts for grades 9-12.

E/PO Program Evolution LAT E/PO program proposed and accepted as part of Instrument Selection process (2/28/00, $1.27M 99$ = 1.8% thru phase D) GLAST AO :“The LAT IPI will take steps after selection to establish an overall program that integrates any other IPI E/PO programs and the IDS efforts…” LAT E/PO lead (Cominsky) given responsibility for developing project-wide program (6/1/00) Plan for project E/PO distributed 8/18/00 & presented to SWG 9/22/00 ($3.6M 99$ = 1.9%)

LAT E/PO Program Web-based materials Printed materials Space Mysteries (2004-2005) GLAST Outreach Web Site (ongoing) Printed materials TOPS Learning Systems (2002-2004) Teacher’s activity booklets and posters (bi-yearly) Educator training New teacher’s workshops yearly at NSTA, NCTM GLAST Ambassadors (2002-2005)

LAT E/PO Program Informal Education Evaluation and Assessment NASA Quest Space Scientists Online Web Chats SLAC Virtual Visitor’s Center g-ray Exhibit (2004) Evaluation and Assessment Space Mysteries has team of high school teachers for front-end assessment Formative and summative evaluation of entire program will be performed by WestEd Swift evaluation also being done by WestEd  cost-sharing for development of survey instruments

Space Mysteries Alien Bandstand Escape from the Doomed Planet Star Market Scandal Funded by NASA LEARNERS grant to SSU for 3 modules (to be released during 2001-2) Swift module planned for 2003 release Two modules planned for GLAST (2004-5) Developed with Videodiscovery, Inc.

Ambassadors Program 10 educators Selected in national competition in 2002 Work with GLAST Science Team Develop workshops and curriculum materials Must have own dissemination plan Attend GLAST launch in 2005 Help staff exhibition booth at educator conferences Paid modest annual stipend, plus travel Application, AO now available at: https://universe.sonoma.edu/ambassadors

Outreach Web Site New! https://universe.sonoma.edu

TOPS Learning Systems http://www.topscience.org/ These are fun-loving folk of no particular age, race, political affiliation, or size. Because they are clever and brave, can change sizes and defy gravity, we let them demonstrate the "how to's" in all the books we publish. Their purpose in life is to help young people achieve success one step at a time. http://www.topscience.org/

SLAC Virtual Visitor’s Center http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/vvc/home.html

NASA Quest Web Chats http://quest.arc.nasa.gov http://perry.sonoma.edu/quest.htm Four chats have been held to date, on the 4th Wednesday of each month (at 10 AM Pacific Time) and will continue throughout the academic year. A Quest Web Chat is an opportunity for students and the general public to meet and ask questions of scientific experts using the Internet. From their own desktop, people can type comments and questions into a "chat room" and receive live responses. Monthly chats shared between GLAST and Swift

Exhibit Booth Created by Joan Carol Design Group First used at HEAD in 11/00 then AAS in San Diego Mirror image of Swift booth When in adjacent locations, booth personnel can be shared Shared with PR

Project E/PO plan Includes all original LAT program elements PLUS: 5 new proposed elements: 1-2 hour PBS Special with Tom Lucas Maryland Science Center exhibit Planetarium show GLAST video Telescope Network Adds 8 educator workshops at GSFC, SLAC, Texas A&M, and MSFC Expands role of GSFC, MSFC/GBM in EPO

PBS TV Special 1-2 hour PBS Special with Tom Lucas Productions to air in 2004 or 2005 Lucas committed to raising $500K through PBS or Nova GLAST adds $250K PBS dissemination = high leverage SWG Top priority

Maryland Science Center 250 square foot exhibit in 2003/4, upgraded in 2005/6 to 500 square feet @$300/square foot =$150K to MSC Planetarium show in 2004/5, done with MSC for $75K, distributed through International Planetarium Society along with colorful brochure

Video Similar to Swift video ~ 5 minutes Distributable on CD-ROM Explains high energy gamma-ray sky Can be used by GLAST public speakers Can be part of museum exhibit Produced in 2002 Shared with PR To be done by GSFC

Telescope Network Blazar and GRB observations High School students using robotic telescopes through NSF funded Hands-On Universe project Amateur astronomers involved through MSFC GBM and AAVSO GSFC GCN used to coordinate GRB positions and times with networked observers Minimal GSFC personnel costs ($70K) Can start with HETE and Swift, be in place for GLAST

Educational Workshops NBSP at SSU July 2000 GSFC workshops in 2001/03/05 MSFC/AAVSO in 2002/04 Texas A&M Kingsville (HSI) in 2004 SLAC will help train Ambassadors in 2002/04 @ $20K per workshop*8 = $160K (does not include personnel costs)

Dissemination Plan Dissemination measured by WestEd Educator workshops and exhibits at NSTA, NCTM, CSTA, NTTI, etc. GLAST E/PO Web site NASA OSS Forums and Broker/Facilitators NASA CORE, Science/Education Gateway NASA Quest Web site Videodiscovery Web site, marketing, and catalog TOPS Web site, marketing, and catalog PBS Web site, marketing Maryland Science Center marketing International Planetarium Society Dissemination measured by WestEd

Budget Bottom Line Approved GLAST LAT Program Budget: $1.27M (includes $565K in sub-contracts and 1 FTE at SSU) Requested GLAST Project Augmentation: $2.33M ($900K in subcontracts, workshops + 1 FTE each at SSU, GSFC) Total Requested E/PO Program: $3.6M (99$ or 1.9% of $191M total project budget excluding launch) Project can support a Total E/PO program of $2.5M (99$ = $3.1M real year dollars or 1.3% of total budget) Suggestions?
