SpaceTimeKids' Mission: Engage Minds, Focus on Fun!
Our mission, as Captain Picard of the Next Generation Enterprise would put it, is to ENGAGE! And by "engage" we mean to get kindergarten through 6th grade kids engaged in science and learning. Though it is certainly a high priority of ours to educate as well, our primary goal is to get kids engaged in and enthused about learning science through hands-on, minds-on educational activities, exercises and demonstrations. And our primary tool for making this happen is our trademark focus on fun methodology, which is built into every one of our programs.
Focus on Fun
Simply put, SpaceTimeKids' focus on fun methodology is a method of making sure that every program component is fun for the specific age range of children being presented to. It, along with our "Five-E's" learning strategy, is built into the design of every activity, exercise and demonstration in our programs and is an integral component of the extensive training regimen that all of our instructors go through before getting in front of their first class.
The reasons we employ this methodology are twofold:
First: Countless educational studies, as well as our own years of experience, have shown that, once a child's attention has strayed from what is being presented, refocusing his or her attention back on the presented material is often an insurmountable task for the remainder of the presentation or class. With children in the kindergarten through 6th grade range we have found that simply making every element of the activity, exercise or demonstration fun keeps them engaged and attentive.
Second: Presenting science as a fun activity to a child in this age range has been proven to establish a long lasting science "comfort level" within the child. Once this level of comfort is achieved the child becomes much less resistant to new learning whether that learning is in the field of science or other disciplines.

Meet Our Team (1)
Ed Ludka
President/CEO
Ed has been a space science fanatic since he was a kid when he watched Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong take the first steps on the Moon. Throughout grade and high school he put together numerous astronomy and rocketry clubs winning frequent recognition for his custom rocket designs and applications. His enthusiasm continued through college where he paired a Minor in Astronomy with his Bachelor’s Degree in Communications. Since that time he has blended his career in communications technology with his amateur astronomer interests contributing the bulk of his spare time to various astronomy clubs and societies. He currently chairs a neighborhood sky watch group, manages the Douglas County-based "T-Minus-5 Rocketry Club", is the Vice-Chairman for The Space EGGsploration Foundation and serves as a Volunteer Coordinator for The Planetary Society representing the State of Colorado.
