Read the Manchester Union Leader article about the Mills Falls Charter School 4th graders participating in Orion’s Quest.  UNH Education Department’s  Dr. Lauren Provost is the teacher for Orion’s Quest, a NASA program in which school students do experiments and compare their results with those of NASA scientists.  This is part of UNH Manchester’s effort to boost interest and participation in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math – and language arts) by offering courses at the STEM Discovery Lab in the Millyard.

Watch the video showing Mill Falls Charter School’s fourth graders engaging in Orion’s Quest.

Dr. Provost will also be teaching a new course being offered during  the Spring  semester  for our graduate students:  EDUC 797/897 STEM Educational Foundations.
