Class Non-Objective
• This is not a course about horoscopes (astrology) or about stories associated with the constellations (mythology).
• To fulfill an easy distribution requirement. Many students at colleges across the country sign up for astronomy because they think it will be easy (they are usually wrong).

Teaching Philosophy
• You are the primary person responsible for learning the material.
• I am a facilitator.• What you can do.
• Read the book. (It is a good one.)• Do the exercises. (They can be challenging.)• Come to class. (Participate!)
• Ask questions.• Discuss questions with your peers.• You will learn the material the best if you can explain it to
someone.
