Garden City,
NY- The Pan Am Museum Foundation (www.thepanammuseum.org) is seeking experienced STEM (Science,
Technology, Engineering and Math) teachers to create original, rigorous, and
relevant STEM lesson plans for use by the PAMF Education/STEM initiative.
The
Foundation is seeking middle and high school level STEM lesson plans that
conform to Next Generation Science Standards and/or Common Core Math Standards.
Lessons that relate to aerodynamics, aeronautics, mechanical design and related
topics are preferred. Lessons should be of a nature that would be utilized in most
classroom settings and address topics/formulas that teachers would find useful.
Collaboration with the museum’s Educational Programming Director will ensure the
plan fits into the program’s lesson plan template and relevance to Pan Am
history.
Lessons will
be provided free of charge for use by teachers, students and parents through
our physical location, website and education blog. Plan authors will be
credited.
The Pan Am
Museum Foundation is offering a stipend of $100
for each completed lesson.
Please

information at guy@thepanammuseum.org
