Résumé

Astronomy leads to an understanding of the history and nature of science, and attracts many young people to education in science and technology. But, while in many countries astronomy is not part of the standard curriculum, many scientific and educational societies and government agencies have produced materials and educational resources in astronomy for all educational levels. This volume highlights the general strategies for effective teaching and introduces innovative points of view regarding methods of teaching and learning, particularly those using new technologies.
Technology is used in astronomy, both for obtaining observations and for teaching. The book also presents ideas for how astronomy can be connected to environmental issues and to other topics of public interest. This valuable overview is based on papers and posters presented by many of the world's leading astronomy educators at a Special Session of the International Astronomical Union General Assembly in Prague in 2006.
