Learn how to engage your students and teach science in the context of the STS-118 shuttle mission with the first Educator Astronaut spaceflight. Using the Internet and a telephone, immerse yourself in two new NASA classroom activities: the Fit Explorer and the Engineering Design Challenge. These and other activities blend rich themes of energy, microgravity and colonization. Educators can take the training from home or work.

You will be provided with the training website address and a toll-free number when the session fills, or no less than one week before the session.

Registration is open until Oct. 15, 2007. For more information, visit: http://www.us-satellite.net/sts118
