Ellen Ochoa Web Quest Activity | Diverse Voices Project | 3 Part Web Quest
This Ellen Ochoa activity is part of an exciting new project designed to increase diverse voices in Social Studies classrooms. This Ellen Ochoa activity is a 3-part web quest. In Part 1 (READ), students engage with Ellen Ochoa's legacy, her career as an astronaut, being the first Hispanic woman to enter outer space, and her educational pursuits, and her career as the Director of the Johnson Space Center. Part 2 (WATCH) is a short video that students watch to reaffirm Ochoa's amazing impact on American History as she challenged gender barriers by pursuing a career that was not open to females at the time. In Part 3 (INTERPRET), students engage in a primary source analysis related to Ochoa's legacy, specifically in regard to her successful patents on optical devices used in outer space.
