Improving the Astronomy in Schools

Click here for a full color 2-page PDF brochureThe
workshops here are designed to cause the teachers to become
knowledgeable and confident in their knowledge, using research-based pedagogical techniques.
How the Workshops are
Arranged 1. We will, of course, have an introductory chat with you
on your needs. We often recommend an
anonymous pre-visit content
questionnaire
and a survey to determine concerns and topics that the teachers
want to go over, in advance..
2. An
appropriate set of lessons, covering the alloted time is created. These include
correcting
misconceptions. While teachers will often take back
activities they can use or adapt in their classes, we proceed on the
fundamental principle that we are hereto teach the teachers (in teacher
workshops) so that they are more knowledgeable about the content than
they have to be. All lessons are
interactive, hands-on, full of content and useful pedagogy.
3. A
post-visit questionnaire and certificate of attendance can be given to
document learning and participation.
Costs
vary with time, complexity of the topics and numbers of teachers.
