Astronomy: Writing C
To date, there have been a number of in-class videos shown, in order to illustrate key concepts and approaches. Choose one of those videos (all linked from the course notes on BB) and address each of the following questions within (a) a clear and concise essay (~1 page, single-spaced); OR (b) a short (~5 slide) PowerPoint presentation.
1. Summarize the video in the context of the course. Be certain to be quantitative.
2. In what specific ways does the video address the core concepts of science (the core concepts of science are...)?
3. Construct an analogy for how science works and use the chosen video to illustrate your analogy.
4. Comment on what attracted you to discuss that particular video (e.g. "I really enjoyed this video because..." OR "This video really annoyed me because...").
Suggest specific improvements, particularly improvements that increase the quantitative nature of the video.
