GEN: New NASA programming

[Jan Wee <jwee@MAIL.ARC.NASA.GOV>]

Dear LM_Net Members,

Thought this would be of interest to this group!  If you haven't
had a chance to participate in the NASA Sharing projects be sure
to take a look at the web site.  There are wonderful projects
NeurOn, Women of NASA, Live From Mars, etc. and the new Learning
Technologies Channel which will help you and colleagues integrate
the Internet & technology into the curriculum.

Please copy and share this with your staff and other educators
who might benefit!

-----------> ALERT! NEW NASA PROGRAMMING!<---------------


Hello,
Here's a last minute update on some new online programming.

Perhaps you've heard whispers of the Learning Technologies Channel
(LTC). There are lots of cool, realtime events happening and planned.
The full details are available at http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/ltc

On October 21st we listened to live audio from a submarine which was
exploring parts of the ocean floor never before visited by humans.
In November, we'll have virtual tours of NASA's practice space
station (on the ground at JSC/Houston). That's where astronauts
practice Station experiments with realistic configurations.

Thursday October 23  we start a regular series called
Sharing NASA 101.  Each week we will look in-depth at another
aspect of the Sharing NASA series; topics will include chats,
student publishing, etc.  The time for these events will be
4:00 pm to 5:00 pm Pacific (7:00 pm to 8:00 pm Eastern.)
See http://quest.arc.nasa.gov/ltc/sn for all of the details.

We are very excited about the great programming we're planning.
To stay abreast of this rapidly evolving new teacher/student
resource, visit the web site frequently or sign up for the maillist
by sending email to: listmanager@quest.arc.nasa.gov
In the message body, write these words: subscribe updates-ltc

I hope I see some of you online for the Sharing NASA 101 series.
In NASA's best tradition, we think we'll be exploring new ground
and we want you to come along for the adventure.

Yours,
Marc Siegel, Manager of Sharing NASA Projects
NASA Ames Research Center
