As students prepare to head back to school, remember to teach young people
about aviation, the joy of flight, and the vast career opportunities. Do your
part and introduce fellow pilots and teachers to the AOPA Pilots and Teachers
topics into the classroom with 11 easy-to-follow modules, which highlight
common questions people often ask about general aviation. PATH ties
activities to secondary school topics. It also guides pilots and teachers to
arrange a classroom visit or field trips to local airports where aviation
professionals can share their enthusiasm and knowledge of flying with
students. Request a copy or download AOPA's PATH to Aviation.

Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Rotorcraft Base R&T Program.
It was developed by NASA Ames Education.
http://rotored.arc.nasa.gov/index.html
This educational web site is designed for classroom use by teachers and
students in Kindergarten through grade 4. It is also designed for homeschool
use and for use by those who are interested in rotorcraft.
The web site is actually an on-line, interactive book about one girl's visit with
her mother to the rotorcraft research center at which her mother works. Not
only is the story enjoyable to read with its full color pictures, there is also a
lot to do on each page besides read the story. Each button within the menu
bar allows the student or user to explore other topics about rotorcraft as
well. Exploring with your cursor the illustrations on each page, and clicking on
hot spots will also bring up more rotorcraft information.
