The Sun, our star, affects everything on Earth. It provides us with the energy, warmth and light we need to live. It is a fundamental part of our lives, and the centre of the solar system. We think of it as being a rather constant, 'yellowish' disk of light, but it is far from this. It is a highly dynamic ball of very hot gas, which sometimes produces huge explosions which can shoot material far out into space, sometimes even hitting the Earth's environment. The solar atmosphere, the corona, seen during a total eclipse is over a million degrees. Viewed from space, in the ultraviolet or with X-rays, the Sun is amazingly beautiful and very dynamic. The aim of this project is to provide information and resources for schools about the Sun and its effect on the Earth, which can excite the interest of students and support teachers. This will be achieved through further development of the Sun|trek (www.suntrek.org) website, by personal contact with Dr Helen Mason (participation in teachers' workshops, talks to school students, visits to schools), and also by helping and supporting young solar researchers throughout the UK to engage in outreach work. The Sun|trek website, launched in 2007, has been a huge success, far in excess of expectations. It is used worldwide, with the main usage from the USA, followed by the UK, but also reaching to the far corners of the world. The Sun|trek project is led by Dr Helen Mason (University of Cambridge) with support from Dr Dave Pike (now retired from the Rutherford Appleton laboratory) together with the software company IMDC. It has been funded by STFC SiS grants.Solar astronomy has great advantages for schools, since the Sun is accessible during the daytime (sometimes!) and projects can be based around various activities, for example with solar telescopes, sunspotters or UV beads. The images and movies of the Sun from space are also spectacular and can engage children (and adults!) of all ages. In addition, studies and discussions about the Sun can be tailored to all ages, from the very young (primary) to A-level students. Different aspects of the curriculum can be linked in - from the motions of the planets, seasons, day and night, big and small, to the Sun's magnetic field, electromagnetic radiation, gravity, the Earth's energy resources, space weather and climate change. The schools targeted in this project would be mainly state schools in inner city areas, with diverse ethnic catchments.Sun|trek covers many aspects of school science and links these with the most recent solar observations from space. The aim of this project is to further update Sun|trek, and to incorporate more classroom projects and ideas, linking with the use of modern technology (use of whiteboards, facebook, i-pads etc). International links (with the USA/NASA, Europe/ESA and other countries, India and S.Africa) will be developed further. Dr Helen Mason is an internationally well known solar scientist, who has worked on many solar space missions. In 2010, she received one of the 'Woman of Outstanding Achievement' awards for her outreach work. She is frequently asked to participate in workshops for teachers (eg those organised by the Institute of Physics) and to visit schools and to talk to students. She has even participated in outreach activities at summer music festivals. She has a particular interest in encouraging girls to take an interest in science. She intends to also target women's groups (for example the WI) and write some articles for women's and girl's magazines.The project 'Our Dynamic Sun' provides an opportunity to share with others (especially teachers and students) the fascinating images, movies and information being provided by solar space observations. In addition, students will be encouraged to explore the close connections between the Sun and the Earth. The ultimate aim is to excite the interest of students in science, in an era which depends more and more on technology.

太阳，我们的星星，影响着地球上的一切。它为我们提供生活所需的能量、温暖和光明。它是我们生活的重要组成部分，也是太阳系的中心。我们认为它是一个相当恒定的，“黄色”的光盘，但它远非如此。它是一个由非常热的气体组成的高度动态的球，有时会产生巨大的爆炸，这些爆炸可以将物质发射到遥远的太空中，有时甚至会撞击地球的环境。日全食时的太阳大气层，日冕，温度超过一百万度。从太空，在紫外线或X射线下观看，太阳是惊人的美丽和非常动态的。该项目的目的是为学校提供有关太阳及其对地球影响的信息和资源，以激发学生的兴趣并支持教师。这将通过太阳的进一步发展来实现|Trek（www.suntrek.org）网站，通过与Helen Mason博士的个人联系（参加教师研讨会，与学生交谈，访问学校），以及通过帮助和支持英国各地的年轻太阳能研究人员从事外展工作。太阳|2007年推出的trek网站取得了巨大成功，远远超出了预期。它在全球范围内使用，主要使用来自美国，其次是英国，但也到达世界的遥远角落。太阳|Trek项目由Helen Mason博士（剑桥大学）领导，Dave Pike博士（现已从Rutherford Appleton实验室退休）和软件公司IMDC共同支持。太阳天文学对学校有很大的优势，因为太阳在白天是可以接近的（有时！）项目可以基于各种活动，例如太阳望远镜，太阳观测仪或紫外线珠。来自太空的太阳图像和电影也很壮观，可以吸引儿童（和成人！）所有年龄段的人。此外，关于太阳的研究和讨论可以针对所有年龄段，从非常年轻的（小学）到A级学生。课程的不同方面可以联系起来-从行星的运动，季节，白天和黑夜，大小，到太阳的磁场，电磁辐射，重力，地球的能源，空间天气和气候变化。该项目的目标学校主要是市中心地区的公立学校，有不同的民族聚集地。|《跋涉》涵盖了学校科学的许多方面，并将这些方面与最近的太空太阳观测联系起来。该项目的目的是进一步更新Sun|跋涉，并纳入更多的课堂项目和想法，与现代技术的使用（使用白板，Facebook，i-pad等）相联系。将进一步发展国际联系（与美国/美国航天局、欧洲/欧空局和其他国家、印度和南非）。海伦·梅森博士是一位国际知名的太阳科学家，曾参与过许多太阳能太空任务。2010年，她因其外展工作获得了“杰出成就女性”奖。她经常被邀请参加教师研讨会（如物理研究所组织的研讨会），参观学校并与学生交谈。她甚至参加了夏季音乐节的外展活动。她对鼓励女孩对科学感兴趣特别感兴趣。她还打算以妇女团体（例如WI）为目标，为妇女和女孩杂志撰写一些文章，“我们的动态太阳”项目提供了一个与他人（特别是教师和学生）分享太阳空间观测提供的迷人图像、电影和信息的机会。此外，还将鼓励学生探索太阳和地球之间的密切联系。最终目的是激发学生对科学的兴趣，在这个越来越依赖技术的时代。
