INTRODUCTION TO THE ASTRONOMY PROJECT
WHAT IS THE ASTRONOMY PROJECT?
The Astronomy Project is an opportunity to demonstrate interdisciplinary
skills and knowledge while investigating a specialized area of interest
within astronomy. The Astronomy Project encompasses a research paper,
a series of progress checks, a presentation of the experience and the
products created. At its core it is meant to be an opportunity for students
(YOU) to meaningfully use their learning to create, build, invent or
experience something uniquely their own.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE ASTRONOMY PROJECT?
The Astronomy Project serves as a fitting conclusion to each student’s
high school career. It allows you to demonstration of those very skills
and abilities which you will be expected to demonstrate as college
students and
employees. In addition, the structure of the Astronomy Project will require
the independence, responsibility and self-reliance necessary for success
in life.
