This Section of A100 you will learn about the solar system as you work in small groups to construct projects in a technology rich learning environment. These projects will be developedusing vitural reality software and will require that you incorporate facts, concepts, and principles associated with astronomy in general and the solar system in particular. The "virtual worlds" that you build will be posted on the World Wide Web and viewd in IU's new CAVE (a walk-in virtual environment). Although, there will be a final exam, content will be mastered in the context of building virtual worlds and through group discussions-not class lectures!
