Evaluation Results: At the conclusion <strong>of</strong> this workshop, the following questions were asked on<br />
an evaluation fonn. The results, <strong>of</strong> this evaluation, are based on a 100-point scoring system with<br />
100% strongly agreeing with the provided statement, 80% = agreeing with the statement, and<br />
so on.<br />
I-My exposure to this project has increased my knowledge/understanding in space, aerospace,<br />
space-related science, design, and technology. Score = 94%.<br />
2-Student exposure to this project should increase an interest in space, aerospace, space-related<br />
science, design, and technology. Score = 93% ..<br />
3-This project has the potential to increase secondary (pre-college) student recruitment,<br />
experience and training in the pursuit <strong>of</strong> a space or aerospace related science, design, or<br />
technology pr<strong>of</strong>ession. Score = 79%.<br />
4-The project has self-sustaining/replicable qualities due to the fact that the participants are<br />
trained and supplied with the basic materials to go out and duplicate in their classrooms the work<br />
that was incorporated in this workshop. Score = 93%.<br />
5-The project meets the goal <strong>of</strong> Teacher Training which is defined as successfully educating,<br />
training, and exciting teachers about the math, science, technology, and history pertaining to<br />
spaceflight. Score 93%.<br />
6-This project has the ability to expose and prepare the next generation <strong>of</strong> scientists to aerospace<br />
related fields. Score = 83%.<br />
7-1 have a better understanding <strong>of</strong> how our spacecraft and flight support work together.<br />
Score 83%. .<br />
8-The instructors were knowledgeable about the subject matter that was being taught.<br />
Score 100%.<br />
9-The workshop was well organized. Score = 96%.<br />
10-The instructors' presentation style was well suited for the audience in attendance.<br />
Score =91%.<br />
II-As a workshop participant, I feel significant pr<strong>of</strong>essional growth by having attended this<br />
workshop. Score = 88%.<br />
12-The pacing <strong>of</strong>the workshop was well suited for the audience in attendance. Score 83%.<br />
13-1 am pleased with the infonnation and materials that I received as part <strong>of</strong> this workshop.<br />
Score 99%.<br />
14-What is the total number <strong>of</strong> students that you teach per day?<br />
*Based on the number <strong>of</strong> instructors present and their teaching assignments, a total <strong>of</strong> 1302<br />
students will be positively impacted by this workshop.<br />
15-How do you plan to implement this material into your classroom curriculum?<br />
*The following are highlights <strong>of</strong> responses to this question: I will use these activities to help<br />
them to understand gravity and various spacecrafts. I plan to work with other instructors and use<br />
materials for demos and inspiration. I will use these activities in my lessons about gravity and<br />
the solar system. 4th grade does a unit on space, also some <strong>of</strong> the science/math concepts can be<br />
placed easily with other units. Grade 8 science / grade 8 math. I will use the lab activities,<br />
materials, etc. The hands-on materials will work well in class. I plan to use the materials to<br />
demonstrate the different stages and I will definitely use the center <strong>of</strong> gravity activities with my<br />
students. Earth science astronomy class. Definitely will use in 3 rd grade space & solar system<br />
curriculum. Will incorporate with large groups in grade 2 through standards applying to science<br />
and technology. Demos/projects with freshman physical science/space units.<br />
