CSATS at Penn State helps support and sustain collaborations between scientists and K-12 education.

On Sept. 1, 2007, CSATS began administering NASA's Aerospace Education Services Project, with professional development and other education services for teachers in all 50 states and U.S. territories. AESP employs education specialists and support staff at ten NASA centers who travel extensively throughout the United States.

Penn State has its own version of the PA Science Standards, with clickable links to instructional materials. It includes new secondary science lessons developed in cooperation with Penn State's GREATT project and lessons on sustainable energy developed in the e21 Project.

CSATS seeks science teachers from Pennsylvania urban schools or the Philadelphia area for funded research sabbatical fellowships. A flyer is online. If you'd like more information, please call us at (814) 865-3525.
