Experienced NASA educators at Sonoma State University, together with autism education specialists from the Education Development Center and informal education experts from the New York Hall of Science are leading a five-year program, NASA’s Neurodiversity Network (N3), that will provide a pathway to NASA participation and STEM employment for neurodiverse learners, with a focus on those on the autism spectrum. This project targets all four of the top-level goals for NASA’s Science Activation program (SciAct): we will enable STEM education for a segment of the population that is significantly underserved and our efforts will improve scientific literacy for this underserved population, advancing national education goals by providing authentic NASA experiences for autistic STEM learners.
