Abstract

Classroom lessons of astronomy are in a critical phase in Japan. They say that it is difficult to teach astronomy in school. One of the reasons of the difficulty is that students can not observe astronomical objects in school. We believe that using live video through the Internet can resolve this difficulty. We have tried two experiments. The first case is the broadcasting live video of unusual astronomical phenomenon using CU-SeeMe. In the second case, we tried classroom lessons using CU-SeeMe between junior high school and astronomical observatory. This paper describes these experiments, and considers the benefits of using live video through the Internet in classroom lessons of astronomy.
