From a noted specialist in astronomy education and outreach, this
Brief provides an overview of the most influential discipline-based
science education research literature now guiding contemporary
astronomy teaching. In recent years, systematic studies of
effective and efficient teaching strategies have provided a solid
foundation for enhancing college-level students' learning in
astronomy. Teaching astronomy and planetary science at the
college-level was once best characterized as professor-centered,
information-download lectures. Today, astronomy faculty are
striving to drastically improve the learning environment by using
innovative teaching approaches. Uniquely, the authors have
organized this book around strands of commonly employed astronomy
teaching strategies to help readers, professors, and scholars
quickly access the most relevant work while, simultaneously,
avoiding the highly specialized, technical vocabulary of
constructivist educational pedagogies unfamiliar to most astronomy
professors. For readers who are currently teaching astronomy at the
college level-or those who plan on teaching at the college level in
the future-this Brief provides an indispensable guide.
