福克斯望远镜项目和它的教育目的简要概述。研究,以评估其在激发学生的兴奋和兴趣的影响。位于夏威夷的福克斯望远镜被用来提供图像,用于根据福克斯关于星系的两个“教育/研究”项目评估课程作业。学生们对使用望远镜和两个星系项目的各个方面的态度是通过问卷调查和自由回复评论获得的。学生们被发现对望远镜的各个方面都充满热情,并希望根据他们获得的图像进行严肃的科学调查。
The Faulkes Telescope Project and its educational aims are briefly summarised. Research to evaluate its impact in inspiring excitement and interest among students is described. The Faulkes Telescope in Hawaii was used to provide images for assessed coursework based on two of the Faulkes “education/research” projects on galaxies. Students’ attitudes to various aspects of using the telescope and to the two galaxy projects were obtained using a questionnaire and free‐response comments. The students were found to be enthusiastic about all aspects of the telescope and the idea of carrying out serious science investigations based on the images that they had obtained.
