I'm Robert Simpson and I work at the Zooniverse, a world-leading Citizen Science platform. I am an astrophysicist and my research involves understanding how stars form. I also love the web! You can hear me on the Recycled Electrons podcast.

ZooTeach: Using the Zooniverse in the Classroom

I was at RAL today, as part of a teacher training event run by the National Space Academy, to talk about the Zooniverse and how our projects can be used to teach astronomy, science and maths.

I gave an overview of the Zooniverse, and then highlighted ZooTeach, the dedicated website where teachers and educators can create and share lesson plans, centred around the Zooniverse citizen science websites.

ZooTeach is great and will only get better as more teachers know about it and use it. Check it out at http://www.zooteach.org and follow on Twitter at @ZooTeach.
