Description:
The project « Behind the Scenes of Space »
purpose is to design a space-themed virtual
livestream field trip for young students
(from kindergarten to grade 12) specific to
Space Exploration. The main objectives are
to highlight Canadian contributions to space
exploration and innovation through engaging,
interactive virtual trips that visit
Canadian industries that are involved in
these contributions in various ways
(robotics, space exploration, science) and
to generate interest and encourage youth to
pursue studies and careers in space STEM
programs. Participation in our virtual field
trip will help encourage a new generation of
Canadians to develop the skills that will
allow them to be a part of Canada's space
legacy, expand their scientific literacy,
and contribute to the workforce of tomorrow.
A recorded version will be made public and
viewable to all Canadians.
