Title | Astronomy Education Volume 1: Evidence-based instruction for introductory courses |
Author(s) | Impey Chris (ed.);Sanlyn Buxner (ed.) |
Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2019. |
Description | xxi, p.1-1 - 12-24 |
Series | (AAS-IOP Astronomy) |
Abstract Note | Astronomy is a popular subject for non-science majors in the United States, often representing a last formal exposure to science. Research has demonstrated the efficacy of active learning, but college astronomy instructors are often unaware of the tools and methods they can use to increase student comprehension and engagement. This book focuses on practical implementation of evidence-based strategies that are supported by research literature. Chapter topics include an overview of learner-centered theories and strategies for course design and implementation, the use of Lecture-Tutorials, the use of technology and simulations to support learner-centered teaching, the use of research-based projects, citizen science, World Wide Telescope and planetariums in instruction, an overview of assessment, considerations for teaching at a community college, and strategies to increase the inclusivity of courses. |

Title | Astronomy Education Volume 2: Best practices for online learning environments |
Author(s) | Impey Chris (ed.);Matthew Wenger (ed.) |
Publication | Bristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2020. |
Description | xix, p. 1-1 - 9-6 |
Series | (AAS-IOP Astronomy) |
Abstract Note | Astronomy is a popular subject for non-science majors in the United States, often representing a last formal exposure to science. Online learning environments are increasingly important in the landscapes of higher education and lifelong learning. The number of students taking online classes is growing, and more instructors are being asked to take their teaching online. This practical guide is intended for astronomy instructors who want to develop their first online course as well as those who want to add new tools and experiences to their existing courses. It explores online course design, integrating new and social media into online learning experiences, adaptive learning systems, massive open online classes (MOOCs), and the use of virtual worlds and virtual reality to teach astronomy. |
