An Interview with Saul Perlmutter by Polish schoolchildren. HOU TRA Lech Mankiewicz shares: “As this year Nobel Laureates gather in Stockholm for the final ceremony, I would like to share a YouTube video taken during a videoconference between Saul Permutter and my daughter’s class in Warsaw. I think it shows science at its best from the society point of view, our parents were deeply moved by the way SP answered kid’s questions, and I think everyone watching the video will be moved as well… ”
Lech notes and appreciates the role of Carl Pennypacker in arranging this interview.
PBS-KQED video on Cyberlearning — has segments that show participants in the Universe Quest Project, the after-school component of HOU, in action in an urban setting in Oakland. Here, you will see our good students saying how much they learned from astronomy, and how it is fascinating to them. These students would never be exposed to such materials in their normal classrooms. –Carl Pennypacker
