“Kids Capture Their Universe” (KCU) out-of-school time program is an 11 week prorams for middle-school students where youth learn to request astronomical images from the MicroObservatory robotic telescope network and use image-processing software to reveal and emphasize important
details about their images, just as professional astronomers do. Participants work in small groups to organize and present an astrophotography exhibit made of several “stations,” each complete with images, written captions, 3D models, and creative poems reflecting the
science content they learn. |
