Teaching Astrobiology Online [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004 As part of Swinburne Astronomy Online (SAO), we run an online short course entitled Searching for Extrasolar Planets and Extraterrestrial Life. The main aim of the short course is to act as a “feeder” into our graduate programs and allow students to trial online education while exploring one of the new hot topics of astronomy – astrobiology.I will ...
