Intent To Sole Source - STEM TPC (Clickers)

The mission of Air Force Junior ROTC is to "Develop citizens of character dedicated to serving their nation and community." The program achieves this through classroom education in air and space fundamentals and hands on learning opportunities in several fun and challenging curricular activities.  This requirement directly applies to AU Transformation education and outreach objectives, supporting a continual refresh/replacement of worn-out units used in every AFJROTC classroom. This innovative, cutting-edge education technology is an immersive learning tool that turns the passive classroom into an interactive, student centered, feedback-rich learning environment. It has been used to enhance the AFJROTC Aerospace Science Curriculum and provides a tool to teach and reinforce concepts that are being taught in the classroom.  Essential to the growth of AFJROTC is the ability to deliver the equipment necessary for instructors to convey the assigned curriculum. These tools are a recognized educational tool that significantly improves cadet learning and retention. As the delivery system for all AFJROTC curriculum, it is critical to instructor delivery and cadet learning.
