Connecting Communities through Cosmic Careers: This panel discussion will focus on career opportunities in the space industry, virtual opportunities for partnerships to explore space careers, how to develop interactive activities for career exploration, and how to increase the impact of career connections by aligning experiences to standards and a common language. This session will bring together experienced three educators from the classroom, science museum, and business community to explain how they created a series of virtual interactive programs that impacted students across the United States using the RIASEC framework for career connections.
Objectives:
Attendees will learn about the vast array of career possibilities available to students in the region across the STEAM disciplines.
Attendees will explore virtual opportunities to explore space careers, and interactive activities designed for virtual instruction.
Attendees will explore how they can introduce their students to space careers while aligning to standards-based curricula.
