Scientific paper

The Internet has made data that was previously available only to professional astronomers available to anyone with an Internet connection. Several programs have developed over the years to attempt to bring this data into the classroom.
There are many challenges to introducing astronomy data in the classroom. These can include issues of computer use, finding the correct data analysis tools, the learning curve associated with your tools, and time constraints. I will discuss how to bring astronomy data into the classroom and how to address some of the common challenges teachers face.
