NASA’s Office of Education’s mission is to advance high quality STEM education. Through this solicitation, NASA establishes a pipeline as well as a mechanism for learners to be inspired, engaged and educated while progressively being challenged. Research indicates that instructional approaches or learning opportunities that engage students actively increase skill acquisition and information retention; encourage more positive attitudes toward STEM disciplines; and strengthen student persistence to study STEM disciplines. Through coordinated and collaborative efforts as an Agency, utilizing STEM engagement, NASA is attracting and retaining students in STEM disciplines who will contribute to the economic growth and global competiveness of the United States. NASA is investing in the youth of today in order to meet its STEM-related missions of tomorrow. Through activities such as the MAA, NASA is cultivating talent that will allow our Nation to explore space while improving life on Ea
rth.

NASA MUREP Aerospace Academy (MAA) goals:

• Improve STEM literacy by engaging students, family members and teachers through the integration of emerging technologies.
• Educate students utilizing a STEM curriculum that meets national science, technology, engineering and mathematics standards aligned to NASA’s mission directorates.

NASA MUREP Aerospace Academy (MAA) objectives:

• Increase the number of historically underserved and underrepresented students interested in NASA specific STEM careers.
• Provide skills to parents/caregivers to work with and encourage their children in STEM activities and programs.
• Involve community groups, business, industry, museums and educational and professional organizations through mentoring, field trips, guestspeakers and other MAA activities.
• Engage students in participatory activities such as hands-on-learning, research, use of advanced technology, peer support groups, and mentoring relationships with professionals working in the STEM fields.
