Whalen1st ed. 2017.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Springer,2017.1 online resource (XII, 231 p. 67 illus., 62 illus. in color.) 3-319-23644-X Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.1.Introduction -- 2.Why start a small spacecraft program? -- 3.To build, to buy, or in between? -- 4.Starting a small spacecraft program: types of programs and their benefits and drawbacks -- 5.Forming a program - funding and organizational issues -- 6.Forming a program: funding and organizational issues -- 7.Forming a program: technical and logistical issues -- 8.Setting educational goals and formative assessment -- 9.Summative assessment -- 10.Results of prior assessment work and its utility.This book provides the information that is required to start a small spacecraft program for educational purposes. This will include a discussion of multiple approaches to program formation and build / buy / hybrid decision considerations. The book also discusses how a CubeSat (or other small spacecraft program) can be integrated into course and/or program curriculum and the ancillary benefits that such a program can provide. The assessment of small spacecraft programs and participatory project-based learning programs is also discussed extensively. The book presents prior work related to program assessment (both for a single program and internationally) and discusses how similar techniques can be utilized for both formative and summative assessment of a new program. The utility of these metrics (and past assessment of other programs) in gaining buy-in for program formation and funding is also considered. .Technical educationEducational technologyScience educationEngineering/Technology Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O43000Educational Technologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O21000Science Educationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O27000Technical education.Educational technology.Science education.Engineering/Technology Education.Educational Technology.Science Education.607.11Straub Jeremyauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061798Marsh Ronald Arthurauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autWhalen David Jauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910163988403321Small Spacecraft Development Project-Based Learning2520202UNINA
