C.R.S. Section 22-81-201
Legislative declaration

The general assembly hereby finds that one of the greatest challenges facing schools and teachers is determining how to stimulate and engage students so that they actively seek learning experiences, especially in the areas of math and science and technology. The general assembly finds that too few students are interested in pursuing careers in math and science and technology and that this lack of interest has the potential for creating a shortage of persons who are interested in or capable of discovering the answers to the questions of increasing population, decreasing availability of resources, increasing loss of natural habitats, and decreasing effectiveness of antibiotics and other issues that challenge society’s future. The general assembly further recognizes the inherent excitement of space exploration and the opportunity it provides for integrating math and science skills and the use of technology into real-life applications and stimulating students’ natural curiosity and desire to learn. The general assembly therefore finds that facilitating the creation of opportunities for students to participate in science and technology education activities that center on simulated space exploration activities promotes the best interests of both students and the state.
