Aerospace Education
Behind the two rows of
school children, a quieter
group sat 55 elementary
teachers who are attending a
summer seminar on aero
space education for teachers.
The teachers were listening
to R. Bruce Reski, a lecturer
with the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration
(NASA) Spacemobile
Program.
3-Week Visit
The NASA Spacemobile,
which is from the Manned
Spacecraft Center in Houston,
Texas, is spending three
weeks with the seminar par
ticipants. The lecturers with
the spacemobile are, in addi
tion to Reski, Robert Jones
and Robert Helton, who is the

Spacemobile.

Sorenson, director of summer
sessions, "but now we see that
little children, and their teach

Tn. addition to building sci

of enriching education through
using aerospace information
in other subject areas.
"In one form or another,"
said Racke, "aerospace is in

We seldom even receive a let

a part."

Views Different
Other fields oecome in

science. All that is helping
to shrink the world, said Dr.
Sorenson, is causing us to
view our world differently.
"We live in a new kind of
world, one we cannot be a
part from but must be a
part of."
As the world gets smaller,
he continued, our neighbors
get closer. The Chinese and
the Soviets can now be con

Organized Programs
The teachers taking this
course, said Dr. Sorenson, are
those who are interested in
setting up an organized pro
gram to teach about air and
space and the effect that de
velopments in these fields can
have on our lives.
Resources of NASA and the
Federal Aviation Agency are
available to the teachers. Af
ter the three weeks with the
NASA Spacemobile and its
lecturers, the seminar partici
pants will hear lecturers from
the Federal Aviation Agency.
Class members took a trip
to Wichita, Kan., to go
through three factories there
that build airplanes. Another
trip is planned to Oklahoma
City, Okla., to go through the
Federal Aviation Agency Aca
demy. Thursday seminar partici
pants will listen to a speech
hy Harold Plumier and John
Furbay, two experts in the
field of aerospace. Their lec
ture, "Aerospace Today,"
will be a highlight of the ses
sion, according to Dr. Soren
son. Three Areas
Dr. Sorenson described the
aerospace course as being
divided into three areas of
emphasis : 1. Lectures. 2. Field
trips, and 3. Study of library
materials.
"This is," said Dr. Soren
son, " a unique approach to
providing aerospace education
for teachers. Never before
