For teachers in grades 3-12, the Society also conducts workshops, often held in conjunction with the Society's annual summer meeting and scientific symposium which takes place each year at different locations around the country. A new program administered by the ASP, Project ASTRO, trains astronomers to work as partners with teachers and bring the excitement and ideas of astronomy into the classroom. The Society's members include professional and amateur astronomers, as well as teachers and other interested laypeople from all over the world. Email CONTACT: Robert Havlen GRADE LEVEL: 3-12 |
