DIY Planetarium Update   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1434 of 1526 |
Hi everyone.  I have been working on developing an outreach program through Colorado State University utilizing Planetariums.  I have started a 'DIY Planetarium' blog that shows my work thus far.  Until we have funds to purchase a professional inflatable dome, I have been working with a gore dome of my own design.  I have run the dome 9 different times this summer for nine different groups of kids.  All of them come out of the dome with the same expressions.  Excitement, enthusiasm, eagerness to learn more. 

You can check out my blog here:

I think there is a lot to be said for the teaching capibilities in fulldome environments.  If you have experience teaching youth in fulldomes or have ideas that work well with them, I would love to hear them all.
