The Frontiers of Flight Museum is hosting its STEM Career Days from Sept. 30 through Dec. 10.<\/p>\n

Named one of Dallas ISD\u2019s Learning Voyage Destinations, the museum expects to welcome approximately 9,000 eighth-graders from 58 Dallas ISD schools to explore STEM careers through presentations and hands-on learning activities.<\/p>\n

According to Rosalie Wade, director of education at the Frontiers of Flight Museum, this year\u2019s STEM Challenge is \u201cEggstronauts,\u201d where students will learn about NASA\u2019s Artemis missions and their landing systems by designing, building and testing their own egg landers.<\/p>\n

The goal is for students to have their eggs land as slowly and safely as possible, similar to how spacecraft are designed to safely land astronauts.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we were lucky enough to form a partnership with Dallas ISD to join their Learning Voyage field trips,\u201d Wade said. \u201c[Dallas ISD] does a specific field trip for each grade level to locations around the Dallas-Fort Worth area.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s STEM Career Days program will feature 25 speakers representing Texas Woman\u2019s University, Lockheed Martin, the City of Dallas Department of Aviation, Boeing and other organizations.<\/p>\n

The speakers will give students an opportunity to learn about different STEM careers and the educational and professional paths that can lead to them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Photo by Lisa Petty for Advocate Media The Frontiers of Flight Museum is hosting its STEM Career Days…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":451872,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[26582,155335,102,104,155336,103,7462,4020,1911,7468,155337,2690],"class_list":["post-451871","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-dallas","tag-boeing","tag-city-of-dallas-department-of-aviation","tag-dallas","tag-dallas-headlines","tag-dallas-isds-learning-voyage-destinations","tag-dallas-news","tag-frontiers-of-flight-museum","tag-lockheed-martin","tag-nasa","tag-rosalie-wade","tag-stem-career-days","tag-texas-womans-university"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/451871","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=451871"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/451871\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/451872"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=451871"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=451871"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=451871"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
