Wildflowers in the Sky: Astronomy for Mid West Schools Project now online

Wildflowers in the Sky is an ASISTM project linking ATNF and other partner organisations with five schools in the Mid West region of Western Australia.

Students are engaged by hands-on activities and inquiry-based learning to observe the day and night sky using a range of technologies from the unaided eye through to remotely controlling telescopes via the internet. They collaborate with students in other schools and work with young scientists and educators from ATNF.

The project web pages are now online. They include details about the project, student contributions, photo gallery and some activities and resources. New material, including teacher professional development reources will be added as it is developed by project partners.
