Education/Outreach
Education and Public Outreach at ASIAA
There are 3 goals in education and outreach effort at ASIAA:
- Bridging the
gap of astronomy education and research
- Promoting ASIAA-led projects and scientific
achievement
- Raising awareness of astronomy in Taiwan
One of the central missions of the ASIAA is to help educate next-generation astronomers
in Taiwan. ASIAA has been working with universities to train graduate students by
offering a wide range of research topics in both astronomy and instrumentation. Apart
from graduate student program, we are also working to bridge the gap between astronomy
teaching and research. The ASIAA Summer Student Program serves this purpose. In July
each year we have more than 20 students from both inland and abroad to start their
adventure in the world of astronomy research and in last August they present their first
research results.
The scope of work of Education and Public Outreach (EPO) team in ASIAA includes media relations, websites and social media, popular science write-ups and hands-on activities, educational and outreach activities and collaborations. We routinely announce ASIAA science highlights, and arrange news releases or even press conferences. ASIAA Facebook and YouTube channel have promoted the most updated information and videos. We regularly publish the IAA Quarterly (IAAQ) that has been sent to more than 150 schools in Taiwan. The educational activities include the annual Academia Sinica Open House and teachers’ workshops. We also collaborate with several museums and astronomical societies for supporting the related exhibitions and public talks. Please visit our Education and Public Outreach website for more details.
