- 1. COMENIUS PROGRAMME 2007-2009 European collaboration of students through the study of the Sun Partnership: Partnership Scuola Secondaria 1 grado "G.G.Belli, Rome, Italy Lycee Charlie Chaplin, Lyon, France Mehmet Akif Ersoy 聴lk旦retim Okulu, Merkez, Malatya, Turkie 17 -20 June 2009 Final Meeting in Rome
- 2. THERE IS NOTHING quite like the study of astronomy to capture the imagination of our students, to make them understand phenomena, and introduce them to the fundamental ideas of science and mathematics and to the methods of science in general.
- 3. Aims The aims of the COMENIUS project: To promote European co-operation between pupils (ages 12 to 18) from different schools in the area of (solar) Astronomy To undertake experimental work that can be shared and used by pupils to enrich their understanding of the role of the sun in their daily lives and in the use of solar energy To develop linguistic and communication skills of the participating pupils through a variety of means, including the use of ICT To enhance awareness of the role of the Sun in our common culture
- 4. Activities constructing models of the local horizon to investigate the motion of the Sun in the sky observing the transit of the sun on the local meridian determining the latitude of the school by measuring the altitude of the Sun during solar noon and by measuring the altitude of the Polar star determining the longitude of the school using GPS and maps orienteering determining the difference between solar noon and 12.00 a.m investigating the equation of time determining the duration of the day and the night and how it varies at the different seasons constructing different types of sundials using the sundials to investigate the apparent motion of the Sun monitoring the sun through a solar telescope constructing and using spectrometers studying the path of the Sun through some ancient solar monuments drawing comics about the myths of the sky writing a science-fiction novel about the Sun and the Cosmos and MUCH MORE!!
