This virtual team collects all independent research presented in 2008, and done by Spitzer alumni with students outside of a formal Spitzer team. Mr. Spuck's students worked on classifying galaxies in the Spitzer observations of the Taurus Molecular Cloud.
Student involvement in authentic research is an idea whose time has come.
I’m thinking I’ll have my 6th graders each do a project on an observatory in our astronomy unit. There are so many!
I will definitely be using the skills and the knowledge that I acquired in the NITARP program in the future for my own and for my future students’ research.
