The Youth Authority is proud of teachers like Laurie Folweiler who care enough to develop innovative ways to reach our challenging student population. More than 700 educators submitted applications to participate in the NASA Educational Workshops. Folweiler provided information detailing her academic and professional experience, interests, and affiliations. In addition, she answered three essay questions describing the needs of her students, the development of a post workshop action plan, and how she incorporates the national standards and state instructional framework in her classroom. Three letters of recommendation were also required.
