Scientific paper
This past summer five researchers associated with the Center for Gravitational Wave Astronomy at the University of Texas in Brownsville presented a course in gravitational wave astronomy in Nanjing, China. Eighty Chinese graduate students attended and represented twenty universities and four astronomical observatories. The instructors implemented cooperative learning throughout the course, a teaching strategy that was unfamiliar to many of the students at this level. More than 95 percent of the students indicated that this type of training and the content taught were excellent. As a result of this school, UTB, Nanjing University, and Beijing University continue to collaborate in an exchange of students and professors. UTB will host a professor and two graduate students in 2006-07 and will return the summer of 2007 to again conduct another course.
