Scientific paper

As an outgrowth of the International Year of Astronomy, the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, in partnership with the New Jersey Astronomy Center for Education (NJACE) developed a pilot workshop (the Galileo Teacher Training Program or GTTP workshop) focusing on Galileo's iconic observations in a hands-on approach to teaching the process of science, adding additional resources and techniques to promote more effective science teaching in the classroom. The presenter will share lessons learned from the pilot workshops as well as plans to take the concept forward in flexible and adaptive ways. This includes creating a national network (the Galileo Educator Network or GEN) to prepare master teachers to implement the workshop nationwide.
