NASA eClips™ Develops New Best Practices in Education Resources

The NASA eClips project, led by the National Institute of Aerospace, aims to increase Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics (STEM) literacy and inspire the next generation of engineers and scientists by providing effective web-based, standards-aligned, in-school and out-of-school learning and teaching resources through the lens of NASA.

At the end of 2023, the NASA eClips project team developed 11 Best Practices in Education resources to help K-12 educators kick off 2024. These resources highlight educational practices that are supported by research, data, and experimentation and foster student learning. Ten overview and demonstration videos were created to support NASA eClips Educator Guides and Guide Lite activities. In addition to the videos, a downloadable Science Practices Poster Set was designed that contains graphics of diverse learners modeling practices that are essential for all students to learn. The science posters and videos are now available on the Best Practices in Education page of the NASA eClips website.

NASA eClips is supported by NASA under cooperative agreement award number NNX16AB91A and is part of NASA’s Science Activation Portfolio.
