Le COVID-19 a débarqué et avec lui son lot de bouleversements. Basculement du jour au lendemain vers des enseignements à distance et adaptation express du corps enseignant aux outils en ligne. Benoît Raucent, professeur à l’Ecole polytechnique de Louvain et président du Louvain Learning Lab, en profite pour croquer chaque jour une anecdote, une remarque, une situation vécue qui illustre bien ce quotidien bousculé.

Dancing Lights: Exploring the Aurora through Art and Writing is a science-in-literacy program about the aurora. Students in grades 3-5 write and illustrate their perceptions, ideas, and facts pertaining to auroral science. This short educator background primer was based upon interactions with teachers during Dancing Lights workshops and is meant as a quick guide to the science of the aurora.

This lesson focuses on ultrasound wavelengths and how sound frequencies are used by engineers to help with detection of specific distances to or in materials. Students gain an understanding about how ultrasonic waves are reflected and refracted. Students also see how ultrasound technology is used in medical devices. The activity following this lesson allows students to test their knowledge by using the Sunfounder Ultrasonic sensor and Arduino Mega Microcontroller.

This material objective is how to practice web design using HTML5. Because most of the online courses are teaching and materials are giving content and examples. But student need more practice and exercise for becoming expertise in the designing. So, this material not only useful for students, self learners and teachers.

Scientific research and design is traditionally made to be published in books or magazines by use of text and images. The arrival of digital media and internet changed this dramatically and allowed new possibilities and far better accessibility of this work. Be this as it may, it is still paramount that the accuracy and completeness of published scientific work is maintained. This course will focus on this integrated concept, the learning of how to successfully make and publish your own website. In 6 lectures the several aspects of traditional scientific research will be treated by using the contemporary media. The course has the following study goals, that correspond with the given assignments and lectures: publishing own study and design work; making your work retrievable for others by use of key words; making use of digital media to describe own work; describing and evaluating of own work; making a bibliography and iconography; intrepretenting an image as a scientific document;describing in key words; compare images scientifically; deducting design types from image comparison; deducting design concepts from image comparison; deducting design models from image comparison; deducting design programs from image comparison; integrating different design concepts and becoming acquainted with research methods; defining an object of research, problem field, target field, design tools, own competence and context of research; formulating a site, context factors, motivation, design program, contribution, intended results and planning; justifying, referring and concluding of own work; giving and receiving professional critique.

So what exactly can be be captured from space and how is satellite imagery being used today?

Join the Astronomy Education team as they discuss this amazing image, what a black hole is, and how the National Science Foundation and the Event Horizon Telescope accomplished this amazing feat.
