Thank you - Kathryn Treml - SERCH Program Manager ---------- The Initiative to Develop Education through Astronomy and Space Science (IDEAS) Grant Program Call for Proposals is now available on the IDEAS Web site at http://ideas.stsci.edu. The deadline for submitting a proposal is Friday, 26 October 2001, 5:00 p.m. EDT. The IDEAS is a funding opportunity administered by the Space Telescope Science Institute Office of Public Outreach for NASAs Office of Space Science (OSS) that provides modest start-up funding for innovative, creative educational programs featuring active collaboration between astronomers/space scientists and education/informal science professionals. Through this effort, IDEAS aims to enhance science, mathematics and/or technology education in the United States for K-14 students and the general public by promoting partnerships which look for ways to translate astronomy/space science into contexts that will stimulate the interest of students and the general public as well as help them understand the information. The range of funding available through the IDEAS grant program is: - Up to $20,000 for programs which must be completed within one year; OR - From $21,000 to $50,000 for more ambitious programs which may require two years to complete.
