    Title

    On Track - Undergraduate Space Education

    Description

    This session will explore innovative space education and outreach programmes dedicated to undergraduate students. This can include the development and delivery of innovative courses, project-based work, and work placements. Emphasis should be placed on how the programme is structured for maximum impact, how the impact is measured and how the lessons learned are being applied to other courses. This session will also consider programmes and activities that focus on the professional development of undergraduate educators, or on educational methodologies of relevance to undergraduate education. When submitting abstracts for this session, please: ● Clearly identify the connection to undergraduate space education. ● Provide a short but clear description of the activity or the programme. ● Include some information about the unique, original or innovative nature of your activity or programme. ● Include lessons learned, recommendations or other take away messages in the body of your abstract. If any theories are developed, please include some information about the practical applicability of the information. ● Make sure that the abstract provides a coherent idea or narrative. ● If data has been gathered as part of the work (including evaluations), please include some reference to that in your abstract.
