Description

Peer to peer planetarium (P2P) is a hands-on, informal learning project for grade 9-12 students enrolled in chabot's galaxy explorers (GE) youth development program. In P2P students learn stem content through NASA online resources and data, engage in stem career development instruction and activities, and then study and learn to utilize the NASA data and imagery to create science and astronomy themed planetarium shows for a portable planetarium dome. They will then present these shows to over 15,000 of their peers at underserved BAY area schools. The P2P project will be incorporated into the already highly successful GE curriculum. Students will attend enrichment classes to learn astronomy and science content using NASA data from the NASA web pages for educators http://WWW.NASA.GOV/audience/foreducators/index.html. They will learn how to assess, compile, and translate this data into presentation format that is accessible to the students they will be teaching as they bring their final projects into BAY area schools. They will then attend a two week summer program during which they will learn the technological aspects of creating planetarium shows using NASA data, and gain hands-on experience by presenting preliminary test presentations to visitors to chabot. They will then submit proposals for their final projects, create the projects over the next several months, and spend the next year conducting outreach sessions at BAY area schools, presenting their P2P planetarium shows to students in grades 4-12. By collaborating with sky-skan (a leading industry fulldome planetarium software and hardware developer) we will be able to supplement stem learning with the technical training needed to allow for our youth to create their own digital planetarium shows, and then present them to their peers. Chabot's P2P project will then enable chabot to explore and evaluate peer-to-peer style education in the planetarium environment, and share our findings and best practices at conferences such as astc, and with other science museums and planetaria nationwide.
