LIVE FROM MARS 2001: Mars Conference
Mars Virtual Teacher Training Conference
LIVE from Washington D.C.:
It's the Teachers' Workshop for Live from Mars!
... the Afternoon
When reassembled, teachers became students in several demonstrations of hands-on activities
developed for the Mars Exploration Directorate by TERC and the MED team.
Whether estimating angles or handling "Mars" soil, all were very involved, even the young
Haines-Stiles who helped to demo.
The balance of the day was spent becoming more acquainted with the Live from Mars project
components (Video, Online and Hands-on activities) and the D.C. participants attended breakout
groups in which teachers gathered to discuss issues and brainstorm ideas in each of these
component areas.
