NASA Educator Guide to the Engineering Design Process

Resources at the Library of Congress can be used alone or in conjunction with NASA images to promote STEM and space education. Materials can be used as a form of research and inspiration for design challenges. The resources also help students connect to the past of space exploration and the people who made it possible. Students can examine the evolution of space exploration by analyzing past and present documentation. They can then take the next step in imagining the future.
