Welcome to Your FREE June Astronomy Lessons created by Dr Jamie Love Check out The Night Sky and According to the US Naval Operations Universal Time Clock it was when you downloaded this page. These two links below will direct you to places on the Internet that will reinforce specific lessons and complement your learning experience but they are NOT required for our lessons. January The January lessons are now over and we are into the February lessons (below) BUT I have decided to keep the January lessons posted because they are so important and fundamental. So ..... Introduction to the Course Please start here to learn what the course is all about and how to get the most out of it. This lesson will also address some of the most frequently asked questions. Getting Your Bearings You'll learn how to find the "North Star" and use it to figure out which way is north, your latitude and how much time has passed. You'll also learn how we keep track of the nightly motion of the stars by using "right ascension" and you will learn the terms needed to explain the location of an object as seen by an observer. The Dippers, plus URSA MAJOR, URSA MINOR, and CASSIOPEIA are introduced. The Earth's Motion The Earth's motion causes the sky to appear to move and understanding this motion is very important for understanding observational astronomy. Here you'll learn how the Earth moves, how to imagine the sky "motion" and how to keep track of it.

Assessment techniques in an online astronomy course Margaret Mazzolini, PASA, 17 (2), 141 Assessment Techniques in an Online Astronomy Course Margaret Mazzolini BSEE, Mail Box 31, Swinburne University of Technology, PO Box 214, Hawthorn VIC 3122 Australia (E-mail: mmazzolini@swin.edu.au) Keywords: astronomy education Abstract Teaching an astronomy course online involves many challenges. One major challenge is the design of appropriate, practical and challenging forms of assessment which focus both on the astronomy content of the course and on the particular astronomy interests of the enrollees. This paper will discuss the assessment approaches we have chosen for our introductory-level subjects, the outcomes obtained and the reactions of the course participants. In particular, some of the wide variety of project work undertaken by the participants will be described. 1. Overview Swinburne Astronomy Online, an online Graduate Certificate in Applied Science (Astronomy), commenced in Semester 1, 1999 with 2 introductory-level subjects (Exploring the Solar System, Exploring Stars and the Milky Way) which assume no previous knowledge of astronomy or physics. In Semester 2 1999 and Semester 1 2000 we added a three more subjects: another introductory-level subject (History of Astronomy) and two more advanced subjects (Exploring Galaxies and the Cosmos, Theories of Space and Time). Further advanced subjects are being developed for delivery in the second half of 2000 and beyond. The more advanced subjects assume familiarity with introductory, tertiary-level mathematics, whereas the general-interest subjects are open to all.

110. GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE That statement is a mistake in the course catalog used for the other sections of Introductionto astronomy. Meramec bookstore as well as from online sources, eg http://www.stlcc.edu/mc/dept/physci/astronline.htm

INTRODUCTION TO ASTRONOMY REVISED (ONLINE SECTION) PSI: 111 / SECTION AL6 INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS CONSIDERING ENROLLING GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE This section of Introduction to Astronomy is offered as an alternative to the usual presentation format. There are no regular class meetings, although there will be on-campus testing and optional on-campus help sessions. There are no on-campus lab sessions. That statement is a mistake in the course catalog. The textbook will be “Discovering the Universe” [6 th edition], the same text used for the other sections of Introduction to Astronomy. [The text is available in the Meramec bookstore as well as from online sources, e.g. www.ecampus.com The ISBN number for the text is 0-7167-4450-3. If you plan to get the text from the bookstore do it ASAP because the bookstore frequently does not order enough books for all sections. For each chapter, there is a list of key words, summaries of key ideas, and study exercises. There are also some links to related web sites. The text comes with a CD that is very helpful, so you’ll need to have a CD drive on your computer. The CD has self- tests, a planetarium program, and animated illustrations. The many animations are very helpful to students. So much of astronomy is embodied in models, and most of these models involve motion. For students to be able to see the motion, rather than just imagine it, is important to student understanding.

111. Astronomy 105 Online Set aside regular times (at least 23 times per week minimum) to do astronomy.Self-motivation is a very real hurdle to online course work. http://www.physics.sfasu.edu/markworth/ast105/startup.htm

Astronomy 105 Online Welcome to the online version of introductory Astronomy at Stephen F. Austin State University I have tried to make the course content as close to the lecture experience as I can. The course is based around Power Point presentations on the various topics. I then videotaped my lecture presentation of these topics, video switching between the Power Point, me, and computer generated graphics. The final product was then translated into the Real Video format for publication onto the internet. You will notice certain advantages to this format: You can ask me to back up and repeat a section again. This would never happen in a classroom setting. I never get tired in the Real Video segments. And you will want to take full advantage of this feature. The controls on Real Video are just like a standard VCR player. You may also find the pause button handy while you write notes. You can view a lecture at any time and place of your choosing. Many of you are taking the course in this format to accommodate work, family, or a busy class schedule. There is a danger in this advantage, however.

Online Astronomy Activities Interactive, inquiry-based lesson avaiable on Craigmont Planetarium Web site soon; more to follow by Rebecca Finley As a part of its outreach program, Craigmont Planetarium is working on an online astronomy module to be used along with the general science curriculum. Students will complete the module through distance learning, a type of education that does not take place in one classroom setting. In this course, students will be able to chat with and e-mail other students and teachers about their research, their lab work, and their outdoor observations. This type of learning is different from computer based training because the students will have an opportunity to interact with other students and teachers through the computer - not just interact with the computer. The program is targeted at upper elementary and middle school aged students, from ages nine - fourteen. Students who participate in this program should be highly motivated, but they do not necessarily have to be extremely gifted. The program is designed for fourth or fifth grade understanding, but it will accommodate readers at a lower grade level as well. The first module deals with the phases of the Moon. Students will keep a Moon journal, in which they record the phases of the Moon they observe each day of the month; participate in chat sessions; and read and study charts and other information pertaining to the Moon. There will also be optional activities and simulations in which students can choose to participate.

120. Astronomy Course astronomy, An Introduction. After ten years of presenting the astronomy courseson America online, AOL closed their online campus last December. http://members.aol.com/thestarman/course.html

TAKE AN ASTRONOMY CLASS ONLINE!! Author Gerry Descoteaux presents Astronomy, An Introduction After ten years of presenting the Astronomy courses on America Online, AOL closed their online campus last December. For those who would like to take this course, I've developed and continue to host a web-based self-study (E-mail supported) program that encompasses both the Astronomy I and II courses. About The Course: Within this course you'll find two major sections. In the first section of the course, you'll be introduced to the history and personalities of ancient through modern astronomy. Beginning with the earliest astronomers, this section will guide you through the development of astronomical discoveries and theories. This section is broken down into four main sections - AstroHistory I - IV. Each section focuses on a specific era in astronomical development. This is also an open-ended, self-study course. SECTION I Composed of four lessons dealing with the history of astronomical discovery and its subsequent evolution, the section encompasses homework assignments (research and observational) and four individual quizzes at the conclusion of each lesson. The course will introduce students to the history and personalities of ancient through modern astronomy. Beginning with the earliest astronomers, this section will guide you through the development of astronomical discoveries and theories. SECTION II The second major and much larger section of the program is aimed at learning the sky. More specifically, learning the constellations of the northern celestial hemisphere and how to see for yourself the myriad phenomena located within each area. These include star clusters, the gas and dust clouds we call nebulae and, of course, the diverse types of external galaxies. Included within this section are both area and constellation specific maps. Additionally, these maps will highlight the major tourist attractions within each constellation and when possible, photos of these enigmatic objects will be presented.
