Haystack Young Scholars Program -- Early Alert

* 9555844萨拉赫 马萨诸塞州理工学院干草堆天文台将启动一个为期3周的夏季通勤青年学者项目，为60名进入8年级和9年级的学生提供为期一年的天文学、物理学和数学学年后续方案。项目活动将把物理学和数学应用于实验观测和无线电发射的天文学来源的研究;距离、速度和矢量的测量，板块运动数据的分析和地震研究;以及地球大气层、其变化和人类对环境的影响的调查。学生将参与课堂讨论，小组活动，研究和实地考察。每个学生都将有机会与一位科学家或数学家一起工作，他们将担任导师。天文台的仪器和计算机将用于收集和分析数据，并用于学生之间以及与天文台工作人员的电子网络。全年还将有小组活动，并与科学教师和班上其他学生进行强有力的互动。 ***

*** 9555844 Salah The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Haystack Observatory, will initiate a 3-week, summer commuter, Young Scholars project with a year-long academic year follow-up program in astronomy, physics and mathematics for 60 students entering grades 8 and 9. The project activities will apply physics and mathematics to experimental observations and studies of astronomical sources of radio emission; measurements of distances, velocities and vectors, analysis of plate motion data and studies of earthquakes; and investigations of the earth's atmosphere, its variations and human effects on the environment. The students will engage in classroom discussions, group activities, research and field trips. Each student will be provided an opportunity to work with a scientist or mathematician who will serve as a mentor. The Observatory's instrumentation and computers will be used in the gathering and analysis of data, in the electronic networking of the students with each other and with the Observatory staff. There will also be group activities throughout the year and strong interactions with the science teachers and other students in the class. ***
