Free booklet for teachersA resource for teachers of students in Years 9-10

Window to the Universe is a new teaching resource designed for students in Years 9-10 across Australia. Comprising 21 lessons arranged in three sections, it first introduces students to waves, then tackles the key concepts and components in the Universe and lastly covers astronomical techniques and technology. The resource uses a wide range of activities and styles to engage students. Lesson topics can be used and adapted individually but also form an integrated unit that engages and challenges students by exposing them to an exciting area of science in Australia.

This teacher resource was developed as part of the Questacon-Scitech SKA Education project funded by the Department of Industry, Innovation, Science and Research with support from an experienced team of science teachers form the Science Teachers Association of NSW and coordinated by an experienced astronomy educator/teacher from CSIRO Australia Telescope National Facility.
