About This Provider

 

Challenger Learning Center at Wheeling University (West Virginia)

Wheeling, WV
United States

In addition to offering award winning, state-of-the-art programs in an on-site space simulator, the Challenger Learning Center, thanks to technology, brings its innovative programs to distant classrooms around the world through its electronic distance-learning programs, known as e-Missions. The CLC flies more than 800 e-Missions for schools, many located in traditionally underserved districts, each year. We provide FREE virtual Teacher Training sessions for any of our distance learning programs.

The Challenger Learning Center® also offers adult and student learners the chance to climb aboard a space station and complete a mission in the role of astronauts, scientists, and engineers with its Corporate Missions. A successful mission requires critical thinking, leadership, cooperation, and problem solving.

Program Details

Format

As members of the Spectrum Wave Analysis Team (S.W.A.T.),students will be given the task of investigating waves to determine their characteristics, sources, and potential uses. They will be given partial information about different waves, and will work together to complete a report on their assigned wave to learn more about how it affects our everyday lives both on Earth and in space.

Objectives

Participants will learn about the various waves, their usefulness, if they are harmful or not, etc. They will also use their lab journals to document their observations of the demonstrations and explanations given by the Lab Director.
