摘要: In this paper, a robotic telescope-centric high-school level astronomy education project, Our Solar Siblings (OSS) is outlined. The an LCO official partner, was formed as institution-independent non-profit collaboration of volunteers officially in 2014, although the first version curriculum materials and approach initially designed 2010. We outline five goals project three approaches (formal classroom, independent student research providing support to similar endeavours) we implement try achieve these goals. materials, central part are outlined their connections various curriculum. aspect recent activity presented. article concludes with brief update on OSS evaluation which drives educational design project’s future directions 2017.
