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 />
