The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Office of Education, in collaboration with the Science Mission Directorate, is offering the NASA Global Climate Change Education (GCCE) grant to enhance global climate change and Earth system science education. This grant aims to improve the quality of education from elementary to undergraduate levels by leveraging NASA’s expertise in climate science. Proposals are welcome from educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, and partnerships with NASA Centers. Approximately 20 small awards and 4 larger awards will be granted, with funding ranging from $150,000 to $500,000 over 2-3 years. Closing date for applications is Oct 24, 2008.

| Description: | The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Office of Education, in cooperation with NASAs Science Mission Directorate, solicits proposals for the NASA Global Climate Change Education (GCCE) project. The GCCE project is designed to improve the quality of global climate change and Earth system science education at the elementary, secondary, and undergraduate levels. Each funded proposal is expected to take advantage of NASAs unique contributions in climate science to enhance students academic experiences and/or to improve educators abilities to engage and stimulate their students.Proposals will only be accepted from educational institutions or other nonprofit organizations pursuant to the authority of the NASA Grant and Cooperative Agreement Handbook Section 1260.12(c)(2). NASA Centers, Federal Agencies, Federally Funded Research and Development Centers, education-related companies and other institutions may apply through partnership with the lead organization.Individuals from organizations other than educational institutions or other nonprofit organizations may be identified in a proposal as a Co-Investigator or other type of team member/collaborator except Principal Investigator. Proposals that include the participation of an individual from a NASA Center or JPL must include a letter of support acknowledging his/her participation signed by the Center Education Director and other cognizant officials, where appropriate.NASAs GCCE project is motivated by recommendations made in the National Research Council report Earth Science and Applications from Space: National Imperatives for the Next Decade and Beyond. This Earth decadal study identifies responding to our changing planet as one of the greatest and most important intellectual challenges facing humanity. It specifies that both the acquisition of new knowledge about the Earth system and the utilization of Earth observation data are equally important in meeting the complex challenges of global change. It is anticipated that approximately 20 small awards and 4 larger awards will be made under this announcement pursuant to the authority of the NASA Grant and Cooperative Agreement Handbook (http://ec.msfc.nasa.gov/hq/grcover.htm), Section 1260.12(c)(2). Small awards may be up to $150,000, in total, dispersed over a period of up to 2 years. Larger awards may be up to $500,000, in total, dispersed over a period of up to 3 years. |
