open educational resources are freely accessible, openly licensed documents and media that are useful for teaching, learning, and assessing.
astronomy educational resources have high quality standards
IAU astroEDU workshop (Saturday) IAU astroEDU Open Review (Tuesday, 11 Aug)
MOOCs, learning analytics, crowd learning, learning from gaming, maker culture, citizen-science, etc.
baseline: 10 000 - 50 000 teachers trained per year (to be verified)
tools: Common teacher training resources and templates. Accreditation is essential.
next steps: Share best practices, reports and templates on common platform. IAU-level discussions on accreditation.
Baseline: Unknown number of countries with astronomy as part of the curriculum at some pre-tertiary level.
Tools: Astronomy Literacy document as a baseline.
Next steps: identify potential entry points and work with national. Develop literacy document
baseline: dozens (if not hundreds of resources produced) annually
tools: Open Education Resources Framework and IAU astroEDU
next steps: Increase number of submissions to astroEDU; work on localisation of astroEDU platform.
Baseline: approx. 500 articles published in 2013
Tools: Better training and resources on evaluation, impact assessment and reporting. Excellent initiatives: Journal of Astronomy & Earth Sciences Education / Latin-American Journal of Astronomy Education
Next step: IAU C.C1 Working Group (?). Turn the findings relevant to practitioners.
by 2020 astronomy education is structurally part of astronomy funding*. * with a ~2% budget by all the astronomy departments,
baseline: education and public outreach budget of the international agencies (ESO, ESA, NASA, etc.) is between 0,5 - 1,5 % for their total budget.
tools: Results and impact of our work.
next steps: Work with our own organisations to set an example. Lobby our astronomy research colleagues and funding agencies.
Please take part in the survey: www.unawe.org/outreach/
What do you think about public outreach in astronomy?
Let's make public outreach aneffective practice in our community!
