"Thank you so much for visiting our class on Friday! The kids loved it...they thought it was pretty cool to meet a "real" Astronomer! Thanks again, Janine" | Updated December 04, 2011 Sky Scan Project Description
Sky Scan is a collaboration between the Department of
Physics at the University of Alberta and the Edmonton Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society
of Canada. This project offers a science
awareness program in the Edmonton, Alberta area using optical and radio
telescopes. Because
the Grade 6 Sky Science and Grade 9 Space Exploration units cover sometimes
difficult astronomy concepts Sky Scan helps teachers make these units a
meaningful and accessible experience.
Funding provided by the Edmonton Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, the Department of Physics at the University of Alberta, and the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada. |
