NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, LEGO Education and the National Science Teachers Association have teamed up with the Los Angeles County Office of Education to offer a series of professional development workshops. This is the first of three, free half-day events focused on exciting science themes and designed to help teachers bring NGSS practices into the classroom. Hosted by experts, each workshop will be an opportunity to see real-world applications of NGSS, ensuring meaningful context to take back to your students.

Upcoming series workshops: 

  • Earth Science – Jan. 20, 2018
  • Promoting STEAM – April 14, 2018
