Book Description

Funded by the National Science Foundation, Lecture-Tutorials for Introductory Astronomy, 4th Edition is designed to make traditional lecture-format courses more interactive. These easy-to-implement student activities can be integrated into any existing course structure. Presented in a classroom-ready format and requiring no equipment, each of the 50 Lecture-Tutorials challenges students with a series of questions carefully designed to engage them in critical reasoning and spark classroom discussion. Each activity targets one or more specific learning objectives based on education research; these activities lead to deeper, more complete student understanding through a series of structured questions that prompt students to use reasoning and identify and correct their misconceptions. All content has been extensively field tested and 7 new tutorials have been added that respond to reviewer demand, numerous interviews, and nationally conducted workshops–back cover.
