NASA HEAT Student Activity Featured in TIME’s Top 100 Photos of 2024
Pasadena, Calif. – Jan. 13, 2025 – NASA’s Hands-on Educational Activities for Teachers (HEAT) student activity was recently featured in TIME’s Top 100 Photos of 2024. The photo, taken by NASA photographer Bill Ingalls, shows students at the University of California, Berkeley, participating in the HEAT activity.
The HEAT activity is a hands-on learning experience that teaches students about the science of climate change. Students use a variety of sensors to collect data on temperature, humidity, and wind speed. They then use this data to create a climate model that can predict future climate conditions.
The HEAT activity is one of many educational resources that NASA offers to teachers and students. These resources are designed to help students learn about the science of space exploration and inspire them to pursue careers in STEM fields.
“We are thrilled that the HEAT activity was featured in TIME’s Top 100 Photos of 2024,” said HEAT project manager Jennifer Glass. “This recognition is a testament to the importance of hands-on learning in STEM education.”
The HEAT activity is available to teachers and students free of charge. For more information, visit the HEAT website at www.nasa.gov/education/heat.
Additional Information:
- The HEAT activity was developed by NASA in partnership with the University of California, Berkeley.
- The HEAT activity has been used by more than 10,000 students nationwide.
- The HEAT activity has been shown to improve student learning outcomes in science and math.
- The HEAT activity is aligned with the Next Generation Science Standards.
