What's new for the NASA Langley HPCC K12 Program.
Available Grants
Objective
The HPCC (High Performance Computing and Communications) K-12 education program developed at NASA Langley is a pilot program
which focuses on enhancing the science and mathematics curriculum
by transferring NASA's computational technology to the primary and secondary
education area. This includes Internet access for K-12 students and teachers.
The objectives of the program are:
- Investigate the integration of computational science in the K-12 education area.
- Use NASA Langley researchers to train teachers in the use of workstations, software,
and networking.
- Investigate and develop low cost networking models with full internet access
- Make available to other schools/agencies the successes and failures of the program.
