Teaching the Universe

Teaching the Universe

CosmoVerse is proud to share a series of lessons for teachers of students aged 14-18 years old to help them teach the basics of astrophysics. Each lesson contains a 5E Lesson Plan (Engage – Explore – Explain – Extend – Evaluate) for the teacher, and a CosmoVerse adventure as a dialogue between teacher, students, Quark, and famous scientists.

With this material, we aim at awakening a passion for astrophysics, cosmology, and solving the cosmological tensions in the younger generation.
