e-Missions to Mars ~ Pinello Elementary
The district partnered with the Challenger Learning Center to provide an e-Mission to Mars for all fourth grade classrooms. e-Missions are simulated, problem-based, learning adventures delivered right into the classroom via distance learning technology. With the use of the Internet and videoconferencing equipment, these “live” scenarios are conducted in your classroom by a Flight Director at Mission Control from the Challenger Learning Center. Students are put into teams to perform calculations, create graphs, and assess the situation of the mission. Every few minutes new data is received in the classroom and teams must work together with Mission Control to solve the problem. Students use teamwork, communication, and problem-solving skills to avoid disasters and save lives.
