IHS is proud to have sponsored 20 educators from Nigeria and Brazil to the Limitless Global Educator Program to help enrich their teachings and expand their worldview to offer deeper education to their students. Earlier this year, educators from Brazil and Nigeria visited @explorelsi in Houston, Texas for a week of immersive learning, as part of the program and this week, #IHSNigeria are pleased to host the LSI team in Lagos. During a stakeholders’ roundtable, we discussed strategies to enhance STEM education in Nigerian classrooms through the lens of space exploration. Hearing testimonies and views from educators has been truly inspiring. Together, we remain committed to building a brighter future for STEM education in Nigeria and across our markets.

General manager of the SpringHill Suites Houston NASA Webster will not come to the hotel to fix a breaker issue with the electricity. All of the businesses around us have power. We are in a hot, dark hotel because this general manager won’t show up. This is awful. @Marriott

Talented instructors at @iFLYDetroit #girlpower #STEM #STEAM #skydiving #indoorskydiving

Awesome field trip to @iFLYDetroit to tie in our current physics curriculum. Students were able to fly and build/test an airfoil. ✈️ #stem #steam #physics #flight #skydiving @AirCampUSA @CivilAirPatrol @AFA_Air_Space @AFA_Air_Space

TEN @CubesInSpace experiments sent out! TY Brock Howe @Nanoracks Suzanne Foxworth (Jacobs @NASA_Johnson) Paul Scheer (@cranbrooksci). Proposals: trash bag material, protein per, carbon steel, melatonin, battery fans &motors, sutures, sulfa-drugs, Kevlar & Aerogel. @CKMS_Girls

My 8th-grade science classes have been spending a few days learning how to solder and tying it into real-life careers such as satellite deployment devices on the International Space Station w/@Nanoracks @NASASTEM @STEMgirls @STEMGirlsClub @Space_Station @SpaceStnExplore

My 8th grade @CubesInSpace students had a unique opportunity today to meet Major Gervé Tillman from @SpaceForceDoD . They learned about the role of USSF and aerospace careers they could pursue. Thanks to @AirForceAssoc office of STEM engagement for coordinating. #STEMtoSpace

Students had a BLAST learning about how aerospace engineers design ablative shields to protect astronauts from re-entry into the atmosphere. I would say this was a pretty epic week! ☄️🚀 @NASA @NASAEducation @NASASTEM @SpaceCampEdu @NASA_Orion @SpaceX @blueorigin @clubforfuture

@CKMS_Girls alumnae turning in their @CubesInSpace experiments to be shipped to Virginia this week! These tiny experiments will be launched sub-orbitally to space later this month from @NASA_Wallops Proud of their continued space-related research! @CranbrookSchool

I am excited to share my experiences about girls in STEM for teacher appreciation week! @CKMS_Girls @NASAEducation Teachers Spark Spirit of Exploration in Artemis Generation nasa.gov/feature/stem/t…

Mars Rover Design Competition! @NASAEducation @NASASTEM #GirlsInSTEM @CKMS_Girls

Students apply their knowledge of velocity, acceleration, forces, friction and mass in their Mars Rover Design Project. W/@smithscience1 @CKMS_Girls @NASASTEM @NASAEducation #GirlsInSTEM

Here's to the continued INTERNATIONAL STEM education of our girls!! Excited about the possibilities! Application submitted! #dearMoonCrew #dearMoon @yousuckMZ

Thank you @amfcse and @LynnDotson78 for welcoming my family to @ExploreSoaceKS @NASAKennedy. I was so proud to show them my name on the Alan Shepard Award plaque and share this special place.

Building Mars landers in class today! #countdowntomars

Here is another fun video I am showing my students on our #CountdownToMars Enjoy! @NASAEducation youtube.com/watch?v=HfyyGC…

In honor of the Mars Perseverance Rover landing next Thursday, I am showing my students fun, informative videos about Mars everyday to pump them up for the big event. Here is one of them. Enjoy! #CountdownToMars @NASAJPL youtube.com/watch?v=gYJsMB…

Science class can wait...

Dmitri Mendeleev visited our class again this year. He maintained social distance but managed to scare a student out of her chair 😂 @ Cranbrook Girls Middle School instagram.com/p/CKCZd_xjmFuc…
