Norfolk Technical Center in Norfolk, Virginia, carpentry students in Jordan Crawford\u2019s first-year class aren\u2019t just learning how to measure and cut wood\u2014they\u2019re discovering how their skills can serve a greater purpose.<\/p>\n<p>When the NASA Science Activation program\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/nasaeclips.arc.nasa.gov\/\" rel=\"noopener\">NASA eClips project<\/a>\u2014led by the National Institute of Aerospace\u2019s Center for Integrative Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education (NIA-CISE)\u2014needed help building weather instrument shelters for local schools, Norfolk Public Schools\u2019 Career and Technical Education (CTE) team saw an opportunity to connect students to something bigger than the classroom. The shelters are used to house scientific equipment that K\u201312 students rely on to collect data using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globe.gov\/\" rel=\"noopener\">GLOBE<\/a> (Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment) protocols\u2014a set of standardized, internationally recognized methods for gathering environmental data such as temperature, soil moisture, and cloud cover. These observations contribute to a global citizen science database, giving young learners a meaningful role in real-world environmental research.<\/p>\n<p>Originally, shelters were being ordered from a national supplier to support GLOBE training sessions for teachers in GO (Growth &#038; Opportunity) Virginia Region 5, an economic development region. These training sessions were funded through a generous grant from the Coastal Virginia STEM Hub (COVA STEM Hub), which supports regional collaboration in STEM education. But when the supplier couldn\u2019t keep up with demand, Norfolk Public Schools CTE Specialist Dr. Deborah Marshall offered a bold solution: why not have local students build them?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s when the project truly took off. Under the guidance of Jordan Crawford, students took on the challenge of building 20 high-quality shelters in spring 2024, following precise construction plans provided through the GLOBE Program. Materials were funded by the COVA STEM grant, and the students rolled up their sleeves to turn lumber into lasting educational tools for their community.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs an instructor, you look for opportunities that challenge your students, allow them to do things bigger than themselves, and let them see a project through from start to finish,\u201d Crawford said. \u201cThis project allowed my students to hone existing skills and build new ones, and I saw incredible growth not just in craftsmanship but in teamwork. The most rewarding part was seeing the impact of their work in real schools.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And the students rose to the occasion\u2014taking pride in their work, learning advanced techniques, and developing new confidence. One of the most challenging parts of the build involved crafting the louvers\u2014angled slats on the sides of the shelters needed for proper air circulation. Student Zymere Watts took the lead in designing and building a jig to make sure the louvers could be cut uniformly and precisely for every unit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuilding the weather shelters was a fun and challenging task that pushed me to strive for perfection with each one,\u201d said student Amir Moore. \u201cAfter completion, I was delighted to see the faces of the people who were proud and happy with what we built.\u201d<br \/>\u201cIt was an extreme pleasure working on this project. I would love to work with NIA again,\u201d added LaValle Howard. \u201cI am proud to be a part of this vocational school and team.\u201d<br \/>Jaymyson Burden agreed: \u201cIt was fun and great to be exposed to the carpentry realm and install them in the real world. It was gratifying to know what we have done has an impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After completing the shelters, the students volunteered to install them at seven Hampton City Schools. Their work completed the full circle\u2014from building the shelters in their carpentry classroom to setting them up where younger students would use them to collect real environmental data.<\/p>\n<p>Their dedication did not go unnoticed. The team was invited to NASA\u2019s Langley Research Center for a behind-the-scenes tour of the NASA Model Shop, where they met Sam James, a Mechanical Engineering Technician and Fabrication Specialist. James showed the students how the same kind of craftsmanship they\u2019d used is essential in the creation of tools and components for NASA missions. They also learned about NASA summer internships and discovered that their hands-on skills could open doors to exciting careers in STEM fields.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was an honor to help where we were needed,\u201d said student Josh Hunsucker. \u201cAssembling these gave us a new perspective on the importance of duplication and how each step impacts the result. We\u2019re happy to help wherever or whenever we\u2019re needed\u2014it provides a learning experience for us.\u201d<br \/>Kyra Pope summed it up: \u201cIt\u2019s been a great amount of work over the past few months, but it pays off\u2014especially when you\u2019re giving back to the community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Sharon Bowers, Associate Director and Senior STEM Education Specialist for NIA-CISE, the project demonstrates what\u2019s possible when regional partners come together to empower students and educators alike. \u201cThe financial support from COVA STEM Hub supported sustained educator professional learning within our STEM learning ecosystem. Work with the Norfolk Technical Center truly made this a real-world, problem-solving experience. This is just the beginning for more collaborative work that will bring the region together to engage educators and learners in authentic STEM learning experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This collaboration wasn\u2019t just about building boxes to house thermometers. It was about building bridges\u2014between technical education and science, between high school students and their futures, and between local classrooms and global research. With each shelter they crafted, the students created something that will outlast them, reminding others\u2014and themselves\u2014of what\u2019s possible when learning is hands-on, meaningful, and connected to the world beyond school walls.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Betsy McAllister, NIA\u2019s Educator-in-Residence from Hampton City Schools, for her impactful contributions and for sharing this story.
