THE CAN DO CONCEPT

 The Charleston County School District Can Do Project captures the excitement of America’s Space Program and places it directly into the classroom to enrich the learning of science. Teachers, students, educators and community volunteers work directly with NASA, leading scientists and other national organizations to actively involve teachers and students in real world hands-on science investigations. The Can Do Project provides motivation, learning experiences, and curricular support for K-12 classrooms. Can Do sees excitement and motivation as a very strong method to directly influence the success of students and continuously seeks innovative ways to enhance the learning of real world science.

The Can Do project is made up of a proven team of K-12 teachers, administrators, scientists, community volunteers, and business partners. Because of an exceptionally well trained cadre of teachers, the Can Do project continues to be invited to pioneer leading edge NASA programs including KidSat, Space Experiment Module (SEM), and NASA Space Camera. The special nature of this team is documented in prestigious publications including National Geographic, Shutterbug and National Geographic World, and in a one hour South Carolina Educational Television production.
