Scientific paper

Australian National University, Canberra, Australia With the universe unfolding before the eyes of our multi-frequency telescopes, -both ground based and in space - at rates that our information technologies can barely keep pace with, most facilities are now sponsoring extensive outreach programs. One very important dimension of this outreach is curriculum materials accessible to teachers and the public online. This service is playing an important part in making the leading edge of astronomical science available to the next generation of young scientists as well as the interested public. Much of this material is both highly creative and interactive, allowing participants to access their own observation data and to process that data for understanding and classroom use. This presentation will explore a selection of some of the intriguing interactive materials that can now be found linking the public and students to our emerging cosmic frontier.
