动画费米-艺术学生和天文学家之间的合作

教伽利略？了解Riccioli！一个被遗忘的意大利天文学家可以教学生科学是如何运作的

Teaching Galileo? Get to know Riccioli! -- What a forgotten Italian astronomer can teach students about how science works

物理系的学生能从那些答错答案的科学家那里学到什么？学生们很少接触科学史，他们所接触到的通常是把科学家描绘成有正确答案的人。但是那些得到错误答案的人可以告诉学生，在科学中，答案往往是难以捉摸的--不是在书的后面找到的，也不是在天才的大胆一击中发现的。17世纪的天文学家乔瓦尼·巴蒂斯塔·里乔利（Giovanni Battista Riccioli）认为，科学支持一个以地球为中心的宇宙，他的论点在当时的知识中是有意义的-这就是这样一个人的例子。

路灯作为标准蜡烛：学生活动，了解天文距离测量

Street lights as standard candles: A student activity for understanding astronomical distance measurements

天文学家使用标准烛光测量我们银河系以外物体的宇宙距离：已知固有亮度的物体，其在天空中的视亮度被视为它们与观察者距离的指示。在这个活动中，我们使用路灯和数码相机来探索标准蜡烛的方法以及它的一些局限性和可能的误差来源。

Video Killed the Writing Assignment

An introductory Astronomy survey course is often taken to satisfy a college graduation requirement for non-science majors at colleges around the United States. In this course, material that can be broadly categorized into topics related to "the sky", "the Solar System", "the Galaxy", and "cosmology" is discussed. Even with the wide variety of topics in these categories, though, students may not be 100% interested in the course content, and it is almost certain that a specific topic about which a student wishes to learn is not covered. To at least partly address these issues, to appeal to all o…

Primarily Undergraduate Institutions and the Astronomy Community
