NASA Materials for the Classroom

The NASA Office of Education works collaboratively with NASA's mission directorates to promote education as an integral component of every major NASA research and development mission. These efforts result in innovative and informative educational materials that engage student interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. NASA makes these resources available in convenient ways:

Access educational resources online from NASA's Web site.
http://www.nasa.gov/education/materials

Visit a NASA Educator Resource Center, or ERC.

Purchase materials from the Central Operation of Resources for Educators, or CORE.

The NASA Web Site
NASA.gov serves as the gateway for information on missions, research, programs and services offered by NASA. The educational sections provide educators access to curriculum support materials and resources produced through collaborations with NASA's mission directorates. Educator guides, classroom activities, posters, lithographs, brochures and bookmarks may be downloaded and printed from the following location:

NASA's ERC Network
The NASA ERCs are located throughout the United States, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. ERCs offer information about NASA and its educational resources and services. Personnel provide inservice and pre-service training using NASA curriculum support materials. ERC team members also collaborate with educational organizations to foster systemic initiatives at local, state and regional levels.

MSFC Educator Resource Center
The center serves the following six-state region: Alabama, Arkansas, Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri and Tennessee.

CORE
CORE serves as the worldwide distribution center for NASA-produced multimedia materials. For a minimal charge, CORE will provide curriculum support materials to educators who are not able to visit one of the NASA ERCs, or who are looking for large quantities of materials. Through CORE's online catalog, educators can use the mail-order service to purchase NASA education materials, such as classroom modules by subject area, DVDs and CD-ROMs. Closed-captioned and audio-descriptive versions of many materials are available. More information on CORE, including the online catalog, is available at the following location:
