Stellarium

Stellarium

Teaching approach. This activity offers an opportunity for whole class^(ta) discussion^(ta) and questioning^(ta) centred around the use of the Stellarium. It also affords good opportunities for self-directed study or homework^(ta) extensions, including perhaps the use of free mobile apps^(tool) (see below). There are also opportunities for some cross curricula⁽ⁱ⁾ discussion of geography (navigation by stars) and history or literacy in relation to the ancient world.
