    Houston Astronomical Society. Rice distributed
    CDs on weather and the Astronomical Society
    set-up telescopes for observing the Suns
    activities. We are presenting planning a Mars
    Event in January 2004. This event will include
    the following participants Passport to
    Knowledge, University of Texas at Brownsville,
    Scholars Academy at University of Houston
    Downtown and, Houston Geological Society, and
    teachers and
    students from Brownsville area of Texas.

FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • This program is absolutely necessary to the
    success of our students. We must give students
    the ability to think and use every tool
  • available to solve problems. The ability to think
    through and solve a problem will give students
    life skills for success....
  • yes, technology is a great benefit in this world
    and our students must learn to put it to work
    however, they must be able to recognize and use
    what they have at their disposal....
  • to solve problems. Life is a Problem Based
    Learning experience.
  • Teacher in Integrating Strategies and Technology
    in Education Practice

FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • This program inspired me to change the way I
    teach and has provided me with valuable resources
    I can use in the classroom.
  • This has been the most beneficial class I have
    ever taken. It has helped me in my professional
    growth and my personal growth. I am a much better
    teacher due to the knowledge I am taking with me.
    My technology content has increased dramatically!
    Now I am once again a goal setter and this can be
    attributed to this program. I have left with new
    and exciting ideas that have become goals.
  • I am now considered an "expert" in my school.
    Where before I was always the one asking
    questions.

41
FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • As an educator, I have been involved for a NUMBER
    of years with NASA and other related programs.
    ISS EarthKAM is, by far the most educationally
    valuable program I have EVER worked with. The
    fact that it is REAL SCIENCE appeals to and
    inspires the scientists of tomorrow. I often
    think of a NASA scientist I met in San Diego when
    I brought my class to CAL Space in the 90's. She
    told of working as a student with the mapping of
    Mercury and how it had inspired her to devote her
    life's work to NASA and space exploration. THIS
    is what ISS EarthKAM is doing for the next
    generation of space explorers! One of our
    students involved in ISS EarthKAM who is at
    Purdue in aeronautical engineering, another is
    at Rochester in astrophysics and yet another is
    working in the field at Stanford! THIS is, I
    believe, is a DIRECT RESULT of the REAL SCIENCE
    that only ISS EarthKAM can provide!

42
FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • The research that I am currently performing is
    based on the project description. My aspirations
    have been to create a reusable launch vehicle
    that is not as expensive to launch as the current
    vehicles in use. I learned about the existence of
    current programs such as the X-37 and the White
    Knight that are intended to perform these tasks.
    I know that in the upcoming years I will have an
    opportunity to get involved on one of these
    projects. (USRP Student)
  • Prior to my participation in USRP, I was
    concentrating in aeronautics at my university. My
    experiences at Kennedy Space Center have
    inspired me to learn more about space and change
    my concentration to astronautics.

43
FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • Participation in this program has completely
    changed the direction of the type of research I
    am currently performing. The knowledge I have
    gained by working for NASA has provided the
    background needed to actually form a research
    project and conduct productive research. My
    experience at NASA has provided me a valuable
    resource upon which to draw my conclusions during
    the research process.
  • Before working for NASA, my research skills were
    literally non- existent. Through this NASA
    opportunity, I have become proficient in
    conducting research and assisting others in their
    efforts to come to valuable research conclusions.
    Due to my participation in this program, I have
    been able to use some of the ideas formulated
    during my research to assist in the formation of
    my own research project for graduate school.

44
FY 03 EDUCATION EVALUATION
  • Participant Feedback and Results
  • We have made great strides in implementing fuzzy
    control of propulsion systems, which holds out
    hope of improving safety and long-term viability
    of various engines. Moreover, I will be
    continuing to work in this area when I return to
    school in the fall, since we are collaborating
    with NASA in this area (UA has the jet engine
    testbed that is being used to test NASA
    software). I will be tasked with integrating the
    external code that uses fuzzy logic with the
    engine control environment already executed under
    LabView I have basically spent the summer
    reserching fuzzy logic and practicing techniques
    to prepare for this task (learning LabView,
    simulating an open-loop engine controller,
    debugging real-time data acquisition, etc.). In
    the long run, we could be on the path to an
    "intelligent engine" that would know when it is
    malfunctioning and what to do about it.
