Calendar Scavenger Hunt
Developed by Beth Thomas. Here is a worksheet for exploring various ways of measuring time: worksheet (pdf) and answer key (pdf)
Interacting Binary Star System Activity
Developed by Beth Thomas. This completely self-contained activity was originally designed for a Spitzer Teacher project (from round 3). Download the pdf here.
Simulation of an Eclipse of WZ Sge Activity
Developed by Beth Thomas. This completely self-contained activity was originally designed for a Spitzer Teacher project (from round 3). Download the pdf here.
How do you find variables?
Based on materials developed by Peter Plavchan, NStED/IPAC
Classifying variables in the Kepler data set
Based on materials developed by Peter Plavchan, NStED/IPAC -- still under construction
Measuring eclipsing binaries in the Kepler data set
Based on materials developed by Julian van Eyken, NStED/IPAC
NanoKepler -- Hunting for Planets with Kepler
Based on materials developed by Kaspar von Braun, NStED/IPAC
Hunting for Planets with CoRoT
Based on materials developed by Stephen Kane, NStED/IPAC
