INTERACTIVE TUTORIALS reinforce the concepts presented in the classroom, providing students with self paced explanation and practice. Developed by prominent astronomy education researchers, the 62 Tutorials present astronomy topics in a flexible multimedia environment. Topics were chosen after careful analysis of the most commonly taught subjects, with particular emphasis on which topics were most often misunderstood by students. The tutorials guide students through the discovery of important concepts, blending text, review questions, animations, video, and quizzing.
IMAGE MAPPING AND ANIMATION QUESTION TYPES provide you with varied options for testing your students. In addition to the standard multiple-choice and numerical questions for each chapter, we offer questions for visual learners. Image Mapping questions take an image from the text and ask a question that requires clicking on the appropriate section of the image to answer the question. Animation questions require students to view an accompanying animation or video and answer a corresponding question.
STUDENT RESOURCES allow students to access tools that will aid their comprehension of the course materials. Animations, videos, flashcards, and drag-and-drop exercises are all included.
