Summer 2018 Paid Internships for Science Teachers at NASA Langley (USA) – Become a GLOBE Certified Teacher (Applications Due 01 March)
The Science Directorate at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, USA is seeking in-service and pre-service teachers to come to NASA Langley during summer 2018 and work with the science education team to become GLOBE certified teachers.
As a part of the professional learning experience, teachers will engage in GLOBE protocol data collection and analysis, learn about science connections to NASA, and participate in lectures from a diverse group of GLOBE partners serving various communities and grade bands.
As a result of the experience, teachers will gain a better understanding of how GLOBE can be implemented across a variety of school and community settings. Interns will complete an individual GLOBE protocol focus with oral presentation and summary of work, followed by a culminating activity that involves support of a GLOBE protocol training to further develop their role as a GLOBE teacher.

(Start by creating an account on OSSI by clicking “Register as a Student.” All applicants, including in-service educators, will need to register as a "student."
