NASA Endeavor Science Teaching Certificate Project to Begin
Accepting Applications for Cohort 2

The NASA Endeavor Science Teaching Certificate Project
awards one-year fellowships each year to over 40 current and
prospective teachers. The project is administered by U.S.
Satellite Laboratory, Inc. Funding authorization for the
project is provided through the NASA Endeavor Teacher
Fellowship Trust Fund as a tribute to the dedicated crew of
the space shuttle Challenger.

In partnership with state departments of education, Endeavor
Fellows take five graduate courses in an innovative, online
format from the comfort of their home or school. In these
courses, participants will learn to apply research-based
pedagogical strategies and cutting-edge STEM (science,
technology, engineering and mathematics) content to their
classroom contexts while becoming a part of a special
network of like-minded educators across the nation.

Endeavor Fellows will be awarded a NASA Endeavor Certificate
in STEM Education from Teachers College, Columbia
University. In addition, 15 graduate credits are awarded
from other regionally accredited partners in higher education.

Applications for Cohort 2 will be accepted through Nov. 10,
2009.
