NASA’s Education and Public Outreach (E/PO) group at Sonoma State University, founded in 1999, is a provider of educational materials for students, educators, scientists, and the public. Funded by NASA, employees work together to create educational guides, fact sheets, worksheets, posters, games, and informational websites. Most of these educational materials are related to the four major missions that support the group: Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (formerly GLAST), Swift Gamma-Ray Burst Mission, XMM-Newton, and NuSTAR. In addition to those four NASA missions, E/PO is also working an CanSat project for secondary school students and an online college cosmology course equivalent to a second year undergraduate astronomy course. == Fermi == Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope is an international and multi-agency mission that was launched in 2008. The main Fermi E/PO website is: http://fermi.sonoma.edu/. Resources provided by SSU’s NASA E/PO are: * TOPS Educational Guides: "Far Out Math," "Scale the Universe," and "Pi in the Sky" are a series of TOPS Learning Systems activity books which introduce students to the science and technology of Fermi while at the same time teaching them basic mathematics and astronomy concepts.
