A free compendium of astronomy education resources from South Africa

[weltevredenkaro]

Hi all,



I'm Doug Bullis, producer of the Astro. Society of So. Africa's DSO journal Nightfall. We have just released a 35-page compendium of astronomy-related education resources freely downloadable or in low-cost apps titled "Resource Guide for Improving the Quality of Astronomy Education in South Africa (https://issuu.com/douglasbullis/docs/special_report_12_resource_guide_fo r_astronomy_ed)". It is an exhaustive list of click-to resources ranging from pre-school to college-entry level in visual attraction and science content. While the title says "in S Africa", the compendium is so all-embracing it can be used by any educator as a handy ready reference.



This guide was produced as a public service and is therefore ad-free and freely downloadable. If this material is useful to any educators you may know, please pass the link along. It is in all our interests to have a sky-literate younger generation in an era in which we have less and less of it available just by walking out the door.



Good seeing to all ...
