AEROSPACE EDUCATION
Update this page:
Teaching Ordinary Subjects in Extraordinary Ways
Civil
Air Patrol (CAP) promotes and supports aerospace education, both for its
own members and the general public. CAP educational programs help
prepare American citizens to meet the challenges of a sophisticated
aerospace society and understand its related issues.
CAP offers national
standards-based educational products, including a secondary textbook,
Aerospace: The Journey of Flight, and the middle-school-level Aerospace
Dimensions. Teachers can get free classroom materials and lesson plans
from CAP by joining CAP’s Aerospace Education Membership program.
Educators
from across the country learn how to use aviation and space in a variety
of subject areas by attending the
National Conference on Aviation and Space Education (Note: This link

NCASE is the nation's premier conference in this field. CAP has
sponsored NCASE since 1967.
CAP also sponsors several
prestigious awards for those who promote aerospace to the public.
