Connecting to Learn Together: Carolina Escobar at the OAE's 3rd Shaw-IAU Workshop

Our approach is educational, targeting mainly elementary, middle and high school teachers and members of astronomy communities as well, who wish to expand their knowledge and skills through the Project Based Learning methodology, using the robotic telescope network of Las Cumbres Observatory as well as free use resources during our workshops. Participants provide input from their experience, actively participate in the observations programming and analyze the obtained results, which empowers them during the workshop by applying the knowledge acquired. This motivates them to apply the knowledge acquired in their classrooms, showing their students that doing science has a deep relationship with their personal learning.
