In Operation: Infinite Potential In Operation: Infinite Potential, our objective is to understand the types, forms, and transformation of energy and our global dependence on energy resources to shape an effective strategy for the future. Students will strengthen their critical-thinking skills and problem-solving skills with content directly aligned to national and state standards.

The Jason ProjectJASON's inquiry-based curricula are grounded in the principle that students learn best when challenged to apply their knowledge to exciting, real-world scenarios. Compelling scientists, taped on location with our student and teacher Argonauts, come to life for students through video, podcasts and Web casts, live chat sessions and interactive computer games.

Like NASA's Mission Center in Houston, the JASON Mission Center is the hub for online exploration. It contains all the student and teacher content, communications systems, digital experiences and other resources for the curriculum. The JASON Mission Center includes state-of-the-art resources for educators to manage, assess and track student performance.

Workshop includes the award winning curriculum, student handbook, DVD, 6 hour professional development session and access to the online community. The cost is $300 per participant.

The Jason Project JASON's theory of science education is based on lighting the spark of inspiration through sustained connections with "great explorers and great events" in core curriculum. The result is deeper student engagement, increased motivation and higher achievement.
