Summary: Astronomy Teachers Look No Further!
Comment: This resource, Great Ideas for Teaching Astronomy, is absolutely amazing. Dr. Pompea has collected hundreds of short descriptions of teaching strategies and resources in one easy to access book. For example, regarding light and the electromagnetic spectrum, there are more than 20 demonstrations and analogies that could be used to help students. There is also information on creating successful public outreach programs. There is even an annotated bibliography of research articles in astronomy misconceptions with nearly 40 references. Every astronomy teacher should have a copy of this whether they are a novice or an experienced teacher of many years. In short, this book serves as the central foundation of my astronomy teaching tool kit and I use it all of the time.
