41. EAAE - EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION FOR ASTRONOMY EDUCATION
    Improves and promotes astronomical education at all levels in all institutions involved in teaching astronomy in Europe. Contains membership information, the group s history, news, newsletters and projects.  
    http://www.eaae-astro.org/
    
    Extractions: The purpose of EAAE is to improve and promote astronomical education at all levels in all institutions involved in teaching astronomy in Europe. Aims and Means Astronomy is the oldest of all sciences. It is also pluridisciplinar; not only do its most recent developments use all the disciplines of physics, but it also has links with chemistry, biology and the Earth sciences. Furthermore, the cultural and philosophical role of Astronomy is undisputed. Studying the Universe is a means of searching for our own origins, learning to situate ourselves within cosmic infinity and developing a sense for the beauty and fragility of our Earth. It equally allows us to keep a critical approach towards irrational pseudo-sciences. Furthermore, Astronomy is extremely popular. There is a great public interest for topics such as eclipses, meteor showers, space missions, and for all the popular magazines and TV programs about astronomy. Several "test" projects within schools have shown that Astronomy is the perfect way to arouse the enthusiasm and interest of all pupils, who tend to be bored with more classical subject matters. Our aim is to develop and to promote the teaching of Astronomy in the broadest way possible. Thanks to its pluri-disciplinary nature, Astronomy can blend in harmoniously with classical experimental sciences, philosophy, history, geography etc.
