面向测量级本科生的机器人望远镜实验室

Robotic Telescope Labs for Survey-Level Undergraduates

Daniel E. Reichart

摘要:

在过去的十几年里,北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校一直在开发一个独特的调查级天文学课程,主要针对本科生,目标是在全国范围内显著提高STEM入学率,并提高学生的技术和研究技能。名为“我们在太空中的位置!“,或OPIS!,本课程利用“天网”-一个全球网络的~2打,全自动,或机器人,专业级望远镜,我们已经部署在一些世界上最好的观测站点。该课程现已被20多个机构采用,我们刚刚从NSF的IUSE计划中获得185万美元,用于在全国范围内推广该课程,并为参与的教师提供资金。在线课程和在线课程一样有效。

英文摘要:

For the past dozen years, UNC-Chapel Hill has been developing a unique, survey-level astronomy curriculum, primarily for undergraduate students, with the goal of significantly boosting STEM enrollments on a national scale, as well as boosting students' technical and research skills. Called "Our Place In Space!", or OPIS!, this curriculum leverages "Skynet" - a global network of ~2 dozen, fully automated, or robotic, professional-grade telescopes that we have deployed at some of the world's best observing sites. The curriculum has now been adopted by ~2 dozen institutions, and we have just received $1.85M from NSF's IUSE program to expand it nationwide, with funding for participating instructors. The curriculum works equally well online as in person.
