 * [|MIT After School Astronomy Project] - "ASAP is intended to build the capacity of after-school organizations to deliver innovative, science-based out-of-school programming to urban youth by providing training on the ASAP curriculum for after-school professionals and providers in the Boston area. ASAP is based on learning astronomy as a way to promote an understanding of science as inquiry and to develop youth computer skills. ASAP makes use of a ten-week modular curriculum consisting of a combination of hands-on classroom activities and of explorations of the night sky using MicroObservatory. Through MicroObservatory, youth gain access to a network of educational telescopes (controlled via the Internet), software analysis tools and an online community of users."
