Space, Weather Programs on WayElementary school students will benefit from two new programs to be created at the Center for Educational Technologies® and the Challenger Learning Center® housed here.
The 2008 budget signed by President Bush includes $470,000 in funding for the two programs. The Challenger Learning Center received $282,000 to build the Micronauts Education Simulator. In the other project the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is providing the Center for Educational Technologies $188,000 to develop science education tools for students in grades 4-6 using the existing distance learning capabilities of the Challenger Learning Center.
