Description:

The Canadian Space Agency's Space Resource Centres are dedicated to promoting science and technology from a space perspective. They ensure that teachers, educators, and students have full and convenient access to a wide range of information materials and resources about the activities of Canada and other space-faring nations.

Established in partnership with well-recognized institutions actively involved in promoting space science education and activities, the Space Resource Centres bring a wide pool of knowledge and resources to bear, in support of the educational community and in raising general awareness of Canada's space program.

Evaluation:

The Space Resource Centres will provide information (free or at minimal charge) on a wide range of space topics, make available an array of teaching tools, aids, sample lesson plans, and teachers' guides, keep teachers and educators well-informed about sources and resources that are available to them, act as a focus for student assignments and projects, and nurture space science activities through workshops and seminars for teachers.
