GENERAL STATEMENT OF DUTIES:
The Program Facilitator will help facilitate many of the McAuliffe Center's in-person STEM education programs, including: simulation of space missions in the Challenger Learning Center, (the main responsibility), family engagement days, and other outreach events.
Challenger Learning Centers around the globe fly students on a variety of simulated space missions. All missions are aligned with the most current national standards and can be accompanied by lessons and activities back in the classroom. Innovative technology allows for mission adaptations based on the needs and educational levels of the group visiting the Center.
When visiting our Challenger Learning Center, students are transported to a cutting-edge Mission Control room and a high-tech Space Station. Whether their mission is flying to the Moon, intercepting a comet, visiting Mars, or studying the Earth from the International Space Station, students see classroom lessons brought to life in the engaging, dynamic simulated learning environment.
Surrounded by technology, each student plays a unique role in the mission as the team completes assignments, manipulates hands-on labs, and copes with simulated emergencies. Teamwork is crucial. If one member fails to complete a job, the entire mission can be put at risk. This differentiated approach allows for a truly personalized learning experience where students apply critical, scientific knowledge to real-world scenarios.
All McAuliffe Center programs cover a wide range of science content complemented by opportunities to practice teamwork, problem-solving, and strategic-thinking challenges. All programs contain accurate and relevant STEM principles or concepts in a way that both educates and inspires further interest in STEM learning.
The Program Facilitator is mainly responsible for the facilitation of mission simulations in the Challenger Learning Center for students in grades 5 to 9.
