Science is more than conceptual learning in a classroom. Telescopes offer a real-world, hands-on experience to students learning about Astronomy. The ability to manipulate the device, locate celestial objects, and witness firsthand deep space objects is meaningful, engaging, and memorable. Throughout their course curriculum, students learn about various objects in space. Telescopes would provide opportunities for students to assess what they have learned by properly locating and identifying these various objects. Furthermore, telescopes would provide opportunities for enrichment for students of all backgrounds and academic abilities. The intention for using these telescopes would be to provide students the opportunity to demonstrate growth by identifying what they have learned about celestial objects. In the classroom setting, students would learn what a particular object is, and then in a practical field setting, they would then show proficiency by locating and correctly identifying the same objects in the night sky. Additionally, under a teacher supervised and controlled environment, student will be able to host telescope labs themselves, and instruct smaller groups of peers or family members. These activities would also give family members an opportunity to have a positive science experience that they can share with their children.
