Welcome, Educators

You have reached the NASA, Office of Space Science, Sun-Earth Connection Education Forum (SECEF)! We welcome educators from K-12 and informal education institutions such as science museums, planetaria, and community organizations.

You probably got here because someone mentioned a great web site for finding new classroom resources about the Sun and Earth system. You may also have found our web address on any of a number of printed resources we have distributed to educators over the last few years. We at SECEF are dedicated to making your stay with us a fast and easy means of getting the latest, high-quality classroom resources that are available anywhere within the entire NASA organization.

At this site, you will find our extensive--and growing--Resource Directory, containing hundreds of "ready-to-go" classroom activities and products that have been extensively field tested and evaluated. You will find the web sites of all NASA missions that study the Sun and Earth's space environment. You will find an active "Ask a Scientist" sites from participating NASA missions, as well as collections of images, movies and artwork that will enhance and update your classroom learning environment.

Please visit SECEF and our participating NASA missions to learn about the latest discoveries in solar-terrestrial science, and how you can use them to excite your students.
