Parallel sessions

Astronomers are often asked to contribute to education, outreach or engagement activities, but training on how to do these well is highly variable across institutions. This session explains the differences between them and shares some best practise on how to make your activities impactful for your audience and meaningful for you and your institution, as well as sharing resources to support your planning, delivery, and evaluation.
This session will invite talks from the following:
• Teachers invited to outline the needs of teachers/schools/students
• Public Engagement professionals who work with various public audiences, and who have experience of successful evaluation protocols.

Note from the LOC: teachers and teaching-related staff wishing to attend this session may be eligible for the teacher bursary as part of our Outreach and Education Day programme.
