NASA SCIENCE MISSION DIRECTORATE {SMD} SCIENCE EDUCATION

 

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) is releasing a Cooperative Agreement Notice (NNH15ZDA004C) entitled NASA SMD Science Education. The full text of the CAN can be found by going to http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ choosing Solicitations, then Open Solicitations, and searching for NNH15ZDA004C. The goal of NASA SMD Science Education is to enable NASA scientists and engineers into the learning environment more efficiently and effectively for learners of all ages. This CAN is to meet the following NASA SMD Science Education Objectives: Enabling STEM education, improving U.S. science literacy; advancing National education goals; and leveraging science education through partnerships. NASA intends to select one or more focused, science discipline-based team(s). While it is envisioned that multiple agreements may be awarded, selection of a single award to support all of SMD science education requirements is not precluded. Awards are anticipated by September 30, 2015. Issuance of this CAN is dependent on programmatic factors, including NASA receiving an appropriation and operating plan containing adequate funding within the NASA budget. Any costs incurred by prospective investigators in preparing submissions in response to this CAN are incurred completely at the submitter's own risk. A virtual preproposal conference will be held on February 17, 2015, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time to provide interested parties with the opportunity to better understand the intent, scope, and selection criteria of this CAN. Information about the preproposal conference will be posted at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ . Programmatic questions regarding this solicitation should be submitted no later than 15 days prior to the proposal due date by E-mail using the character string "Science Education CAN" (without quotes) included in the subject line of all transmissions.
