Re: In School ARSSat Demos / lessons
... With ARISSat-1's main mission being Educational I would like to hear about people's experiences with schools in using ARISSat-1 as a teaching tool ...
What do you need? Classroom lessons abound for all aspects of amateur radio as it applies to the satellites - from elementary school to college classrooms.
Each ARISS contact has a lot of work "behind the scenes" at the campuses. There are phenomenal teachers and school administrations who really get behinds their ARISS projects.
Be a little more specific with what you need - and I can either assist you, or point you towards excellent resources.

That is good to hear Clint.
What we need is exactly what EMike requested:
With ARISSat-1's main mission being Educational I would like to hear about people's experiences with schools in using ARISSat-1 as a teaching tool, in class demonstration, data collection, etc. I am especially interested in hearing from educators, but anybody's experience is welcome.

Doesn't anyone on the board of AMSAT talk to anyone at ARISS?
When submitting an application for an ARISS contact recently, curriculum was established for our students. It was part of the application process ... Which means there are literally HUNDREDS of classroom projects/topics in the ARISS "archives!"

YES - But aren't lesson plans on these topics "transferable" to 'bout any similar project?
-Becoming amateur radio-literate -RDF, Doppler, line of sight projects -Learning the geography of Earth via QSL cards -How to talk between school campuses using ham radio -Ham radio for teaching ESL - as we monitor stations from other countries -Receiving and interpreting satellite telemetry -Asking the local astronomy club to explain the fundamentals of radio astronomy -Building and soldering electronic kits -Living radio history by building and using crystal radios -Receiving and studying naturally generated radio signals
Sorry - I guess I just need a little more "focus" as to what the original poster was trying to acquire/achieve. There is no need for AMSAT to re-create lessons plans to teach students about amateur radio satellite projects. It's been done in thousands of classrooms already - that info is out there, so to speak.
Clint
Hi Clint,
Didn't you know that members of the AMSAT board meet weekly with the ARISS team?
Apparently even the ARISS team is unaware of all of these ARISSat-1 lesson plans that you think exist. Please provide a link as it will be most appreciated.
Thanks! Tony AA2TX ---

I apologize to all for continuing this thread. Apparently, there is a desire for "existing lesson plans for a satellite that will be gone soon," as opposed to what I was thinking, "lesson plans applicable to just 'bout ANY ham space project."
Clint
Being an ARISS ops team member myself I think it's important to realize that the AMSAT folks attend the ARISS-I meeting which is the international telecon. The ARISS ops team meets weekly on Wednesday afternoon and we are the group responsible for the hands on assistance of schools making ISS contacts. The international team handles the big picture and in the years I have been with the school side I have not heard any AMSAT board folks on the ops telecon. AMSAT's educational direction seems to be more university level while ARISS is geared more to grade and high school level.

Hi Gould / Clint
I think the problem may be that instead of an approach where an amateur satellite promotes amateur radio via the science of satellites, most educators really need an amateur radio satellite to be a resource which can be used to teach the usual syllabus but in a more interesting way that captures the imagination of the students. So, think lesson plans, power points, theory, Java animation, video etc. All in manageable durations, perhaps at a few different levels. And....make it useful for the 95% of time when ARISsat (etc) is not overhead when the lesson is happening. We can't get AMSAT volunteers involved in anything more than a fraction of 1% of lessons, so perhaps AMSAT as product placement in lesson resources is a good second choice.
Good luck

Hi Clint...
As the husband of a Middle School Math/Science teacher, I could use links to Lesson Plans built around any of the receivable satellites that would help garner interest in these kids during their "formative" years.
With all the emphasis on testing and measurable results in the classroom, teachers have scant time to develop interesting science projects that are outside the state and federal "frameworks" and won't be tested for at the end of the year.
There must be a treasure trove of pre-existing lesson plans and incorporation ideas which she could tap into bringing Amateur Satellites or satellites in general into the classroom.

Hi All,
While at this moment I can't give my full appeal/rationale, what Roger says below echoes my key point stated during conversations at the recent Symposium; he has hit the nail on the head!! Any of us that are married to K-12 educators (or are themselves one) know this is precisely true:
With all the emphasis on testing and measurable results in the classroom, teachers have scant time to develop interesting science projects that are outside the state and federal "frameworks" and won't be tested for at the end of the year.
If we want to fulfill our (AMSAT's) educational mission, we *must* make it extremely easy and more applicable to the standards our teachers are teaching to. The GOOD NEWS is that most states are coming on board with a common set of core standards for K-12 education. Details are here: http://www.corestandards.org/
Math is specifically addressed: http://www.corestandards.org/assets/CCSSI_Math%20Standards.pdf If you've heard of STEM, the "M" is math.
The connections between us launching satellites and what our nation's teachers are teaching have to made. Right now, he Common Core State Standards are our best hope, because nearly every state has agreed to adopt them!! It's a golden opportunity and timing is perfect--and it's now.
In layman's terms: We desperately need AMSAT folks/satellite operators who are K-12 educators---or are married to them (my wife is a 4th grade teacher in North Carolina) who can work collaboratively to develop specific lesson plans (using satellite telemetry data for example) to meet the mathematics Common Core State Standards. For example, we're talking plotting, graphing, explaining, analyzing data from *any* satellite up there now, or that we'll launch in the future (Fox-1, 2, etc.) Data can be obtained live (copying FM voice telemetry from ARISSat-1), from telemetry servers, from the archives, etc. The challenge is pulling this off. Ideally, we need to partner with ARRL and NASA on this, but we can lead the pack. We have the people to do this---and without it, it's going to be hard to get a "free launch."
Anyhow, I have a reasonable grasp of the big picture--and there is lots to do. But done in a directed and intentional manner, we can establish a framework for fulfilling our educational mission, while at the same time helping justify (and pay for) the launches of our satellites.
Time to go back to my real work for now :) More later---but hopefully you wall see where we're headed....

Mark is exactly right. This is the problem. The typical ham on the street is not going to walk into a school, get an audience with the administrator or a teacher. At least not in the big city. I did it in my sons school in a mid sized district but I was already a "known" entity from other volunteer work I did in the school. Forget about walking in blind. This seems to be the attitude from on high, regardless of where the on high is, that you as a ham just simply walk into a school and make the pitch. Does not work folks. If you know a teacher, you have a foot in the door. If they have tenure, so much the better. I worked a school radio club for three years as part of our ARISS contact. Three of the four teachers were not tenured and asking them for anything resulted in the deer inthe headlights look of fear. We also found that it was VERY VERY hard to inject any outside material into the curriculum. We we ended up doing was taking over the four display cases in the main hallway and installed a changing series of displays. Some were interactive like a solar panel, volt meter and light bulb with a switch on the outside of the case the kids could push. This was a K-5 school. For six months we hams handled the design and installation of these displays. Once the contact was over the funding(teachers got $$ since they had to be there after school) was reallocated and out the door we went. I know some of those kids and they are juniors in HS now and several are in the electronics classes ( taught by a ham ) so you do reach the students, but it's often a difficult path because the educators do not know where to find the material. I often asked the question 'If I were a teacher, how would I find out about ARISS' there never seemed to be an answer. At least with the new NASA involvement in ARISS there is some publicity and mailing/emailing to schools. So one thing that must be improved is that the organizations themselves, ARRL & AMSAT have to make the push, as national orzanizations they have the credibility we as the ham on the street need to get in the door. Most non ham teachers are not going to go to a hamfest to see a demo. If your neighbor is a PTA member, a teacher or you know a school board member, something along these lines, you have a path a well. Bring a prop with you, a PC running SatPC32 or something to draw their attention while you talk.

The ARISS "archives" do not contain lesson plans, only contact statistics and the old applications. ARISS is a partnership between AMSAT, ARRL and the space agencies. In the USA things changed recently as the NASA Education Office took a larger role in school selection and looking for the educational benefit. My observation as a helper for schools making a contact with ISS and in helping my own school make it's contact is that ARISS defers the education portion to the local teacher/school by necessity in terms of manpower and skill sets. As you say most of the time you can't stray too far from the curriculum. The "lessons" we used are actually available from Debra Johnson at ARRL HQ they are quite good and are geared to the junior high and high school level. They are not satellite specific. Likewise, Mark Spencer at ARRL has developed some materials using WX sats for the classroom. Part of the problem as I see it with ARISSat-1 was the changing delpoyment schedule. If you are trying to do a lesson plan many times you have a specific period of time to do it and if you plan for February and now it's April, you have to cover the material you have to cover and there is little time to backtrack. We in the sat community understand this, teaching schedules do not. To the best of my knowledge AMSAT does not have any written lesson plans. NASA Education probably has some materials as well.
