The Astronomy Center has provided educational resources to introductory astronomy educators since 2003. Over the past 20 years, the rapid pace of discovery has rendered some of our linked resources obsolete. Thus, the Astronomy Center will be decommissioned on March 1, 2022. Our highest quality resources will be retained on ComPADRE.org.

Computer Program Detail Page

written by the Contemporary Laboratory Experiences in Astronomy and the Sonoma State University
Project CLEA at Gettysburg College and the XMM-Newton Education group at Sonoma State University have created a new computer-based activity. Students analyze realistically simulated X-ray spectra of a supernova remnant and determine the abundances of various elements in them. It includes a teacher manual and a pre- and post-test for assessing the activity.
