They conducted time-of-flight experiment to build their knowledgeof aerospace applications by predicting a projectile height, speed, time and landing site. Studentslearned about renewable energy by using an experimental kit that helped them study the effects ofwind speed and light intensity on electrical production.

thedevelopment of NASA-themed aeronautics virtual tours and virtual field trips highlights thecapabilities of various software technologies and offers design considerations. The threedeveloped virtual expeditions serve as an opportunity to engage and educate high school anduniversity students. A research plan to collect student feedback on these experiences is alsopresented.IntroductionAs the need for additional modes of learning grow, virtual reality and augmented reality havearisen as technologies that can be used to create new learning experiences for students of allages. Virtual tours created with these technologies can be useful approaches to train in differentareas such as in aerospace, aviation manufacturing, and testing, particularly in

Likewise,students frequently reported a GPA within the major field of study in lieu of an overall GPA(typically when the former was higher).The CATME Team-Maker survey includes many additional questions that we have intentionallyomitted from the BES Tool data collection instruments. Our primary motivation is limiting the teamformation problem to a tractable scope; as will be discussed later in the paper, we have found it quitechallenging to consistently generate
