The Space Age on the Space Coast
Two one-week workshops for 72 educators on the space race, technology, and civil rights during the twentieth century.
The National Council for History Education (NCHE) proposes partnering with the Astronauts Memorial Foundation (AMF) at Kennedy Space Center on a National Endowment for the Humanities Landmarks of History and Culture Grant, entitled The Space Age on the Space Coast. The workshops funded by this grant, which will take place from July 11th-15 and July 25th-29th of 2022, will be focused on the unique history and culture of Florida’s Space Coast. This project will allow K-12 educators of multiple disciplines from around the country to explore the ways in which politics, science, and culture collided in a unique geographical location in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, and where they continue to intersect today.
