Abstract: Many astronomy curricula tap young people's natural curiosity about the universe. Generating interest in astronomical images is not a problem.  The challenge is providing an approach that engages students in scientific thinking and analysis of images that leads to an understanding of the technology of telescopes, optical systems, and imaging cameras.  Our effort has been to find a way for teachers with only minimal experience in this area to guide their students efficiently through the maze of variables that go into producing useful images while maintaining a foundation in understanding the science involved
