Teachers wishing to make use of this service should contact potential speakers directly. Audio-visual requirements, and possible travel expenses, should be discussed with individual speakers. In addition to the talks listed, many speakers may also be prepared to talk about general astronomy to younger children, or to offer advice on degree courses and astronomy-related careers; interested teachers are encouraged to discuss these possibilities with speakers in advance. Some regions of the UK contain universities which maintain their own web-based speakers lists, and internet users may access these by clicking on the appropriate hyper-linked place names below.

    Astronomy Education
    I am personally committed to the teaching of astronomy and to the public understanding of science. I believe that researchers ought actively to contribute to the teaching of their subject at all levels, and I have experience of astronomy and planetary science teaching at university (undergraduate and postgraduate),adult education, and secondary and primary schools. I am currently teaching the Geology of the Solar System course for Birkbeck College, and Introduction to Astrobiology for the Department of Earth Sciences at UCL. I regard inspiring school children with the wonders of astronomy as particularly important, both as an integral part of science education and because I think important social and political consequences follow from a proper understanding of the cosmic perspective . For this reason I am a member of the The Association for Astronomy Education , under the auspices of which I have compiled a list of professional astronomers who are prepared to give school talks . I have outlined the rationale behind this initiative in ``Wanderers in space: the case for peripatetic astronomy teachers,'' Astronomy Now , 54, (1991). I am currently a member of the Education Committee of the

    A STRONOMY E DUCATION The Observatory Education Program is conducted both at the Observatory and at remote locations. As well as tours of the Observatory, staff conduct talks for Primary Schools, High Schools, Universities and clubs. Astronomy field nights (telescopes in the open) are regularly conducted by arrangement. A telephone " HOTLINE " (9293 8109) is updated regularly, especially during times of astronomical activity of public interest. Each year the Observatory publishes an astronomy handbook for amateurs, which contains charts and easy to understand information, with times in Western Australian Standard Time. INFORMATION ON HOT TOPICS IN ASTRONOMY The following topics may be of interest: these are available as a published set as the Perth Observatory Project Kit, along with 12 A4 pictures of the planets and other objects.

    Astronomy Education: A Global Perspective

    percy@astro.utoronto.ca
    Planetarian , September 1995 Planetarians are part of a worldwide network of astronomy educators-"kindred spirits" in the communication of astronomy. This network includes planetarians in other countries, and also educators and astronomers (both professional and amateur) working in other settings but sharing the same goals. This article is written from my perspective as president of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Commission on the Teaching of Astronomy.
    Introduction
    Why, then, is astronomy so often the "poor cousin" in the school science curriculum? The same problems and issues seem to occur all over the world: (i) few teachers, especially at the elementary level, have any training in astronomy; (ii) teachers think that astronomy must be technical and mathematical, and requires elaborate teaching equipment; (iii) simple, inexpensive, "hands-on" activities are needed-preferably ones which get around the problem that "the stars come out at night, the students don't; (iv) inappropriate teaching techniques fail to overcome students' ingrained misconceptions about physical and astronomical phenomena; (v) many students (especially girls) are turned off science at an early age; (vi) scientific illiteracy is widespread among students and the public.
    Current Developments in the US
    The results of these efforts will soon be available to astronomy educators around the world. In order to facilitate this process, to co-ordinate the next phase of development of astronomy education, and to ensure that present efforts meet the needs of all students, the Astronomical Society of the Pacific is holding a major symposium on astronomy education on June 24-25, 1995 at the University of Maryland. The proceedings of this conference should be the definitive guide to astronomy education in the US.
