CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS TO SURVEY ASTRONOMY EDUCATION RESEARCH LITERATURE See Bibliography to date Download MS Word version of Bibliography It has become clear that the astronomy education community needs a comprehensive canvas of the educational research literature to create an annotated bibliography of articles describing astronomy education results. As these articles are spread across many different journals, we are asking for volunteers to complete a survey of one of the following journals. Although there are probably no more than 6-10 articles in any 10 volumes of a journal, it would be an enormous task for just one person. For each of the journals listed below, we need one person to volunteer to go to their library and record the formal reference for articles on astronomy and space science education topics and create a 25-word description of the work. We anticipate that this task should take approximately 2 hours; please use the format listed below . The complete list will be distributed on the AAS Education WWW site. If you are interested in helping out in this astronomy and space science education project, please select a first and second choice from the journal volumes listed below and email Dave Bruning (University of Wisconsin-Parkside) at

Amateur Astronomy Foundation O n l i n e A s t r o n o m y E d u c a t i o n ALL COURSES FREE !! The foundation has been establish to provide free access to astronomy education. It is the aim of the foundation to encourage the public understanding of astronomy through the use of online resources. Membership; to the foundation is free and open to everyone over the age of 12 The foundation hopes to provide astronomy education at two formal levels. Firstly, a certificate of amateur astronomy is an introduction to the science and hobby of astronomy, and secondly, the diploma course is a more intensive study of various aspects of astronomy and some advanced amateur techniques. The courses are divided into a number of modules. The certificate course has two modules while the diploma course consists of five separate modules. Each module may be studied separately, however completion of all modules is required to obtain the formal award. Although no textbook is required for completion of the course below is a selection from Amazon.com which you may find useful.

Naperville Astronomical Association Glen D. Riley Observatory Photo taken 5-11-01 by K. Kulzer The N.A.A. has operated the Glen D. Riley Observatory since it's construction was the new club's first big project, back in 1973. The observatory has been an anchor for the club in all the years since, and the focus of many club activities, both public and private. Thousands of visitors, young and old, have had chances to view the wonders of the heavens through the facility's main telescope and many portables out on the lawns as our guests. Club members can become keyholders to the observatory, and make use of it at their leisure. In 1990, the observatory was relocated to a new spot on the large parcel of City of Naperville land which has always been its home. At that time, the small, 10' diameter building was replaced by a larger one, allowing larger groups to be served, as well as providing storage and warm-up space. In return for the use of the City's land, and the security it provides to our facility, we provide regular opportunities for the public to visit us. For information on our public evenings, see the More Information page; for information on scheduling observing sessions for community, school, and youth groups, see our

Astronomy Education: The Current Status in Zambia G.Munyeme* and P.Kalebwe Physics Department, P.O. Box 32379, University of Zambia, Lusaka, Zambia email: Pkalebwe@natsci.unza.zm *Current address: Debye Institute, University of Utrecht, Princetonplein 1, Utrecht 3508, The Netherlands Abstract. Sommaire. Introduction The government; External agents; The interests of individuals or groups of scientists and teachers. The above three factors have strongly influenced the past and present status of astronomy education in Zambia. We will address the combination of these factors within the context of current activities in space science in Zambia to explain their influence on the development of astronomy education. Curriculum development Zambia's educational practices are based on conceptions of education and science derived from colonial experience. Our history of colonial rule, combined with the post-independence government policy on science education and research has unfortunately resulted in low levels of scientific and technological progress. A central body, currently known as Curriculum Development Centre (CDC), has always developed the school curriculum, during both colonial and postcolonial eras. CDC is a government body and its approach to curriculum development is largely determined by government policy on social and economic needs of the country. CDC is responsible for developing curricula for all primary and secondary schools, pre-schools and preservice primary school teacher training programs.
