In cooperation with
the NASA Glenn Educational
Programs Office, the Learning Technologies Project has produced a series
of web pages containing information, pictures, and computer animations
and simulations concerning the Wright Brothers and the Centennial of Flight
(1903 - 2003). These pages are similar to those at the Beginner's
Guide to Aerodynamics and are intended to inform the student of the
process used by the Wright Brothers to achieve the first manned, heavier
than air, powered flight. It is the same process used today by NASA scientists
and engineers. Students are encouraged to learn more about aeronautics
and science through their own exploration by using kites, paper airplanes,
gliders, rubber band powered models, and the computer simulations.
Aeronautical activities
connected with the Centennial of Flight are located at "Re-Living
the Wright Way". The computer simulations and animations begin with
the Wright
Brothers Discoveries.
