| Abstract | Summary form only given. Educational outreach programs have become an important objective for many public organizations. These programs have been developed to educate the public, particularly High School students, about their organizations. NASA has been one of the strongest direct supporters on these programs through their Space Grant Consortium Grants and many fellowship programs. In addition to the large centrally coordinated outreach programs, NASA is also encouraging all individual research centers, such as the Jet Propulsion Lab (JPL), to operate outreach programs for each project. This paper looks at the outreach program in the School of Aerospace Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology for the Mars Pathfinder Mission that has been in operation since May of 1994 and how it effects Aerospace Engineering. The main objective of the project is to instruct K-12 students in the Atlanta area about Aerospace Engineering and the JPL/NASA Pathfinder Project. A multimedia program has been developed, called SpaceGuide. The original goal of SpaceGuide was to liven up the seminars on the Mars Mission with sound, animations, and computer simulations. A second goal of the multimedia program was to leave something in the schools as a permanent source of information about the Mars Mission. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
