The search for life away from the Earth is a new and exciting discipline which encompasses the fields of astronomy, physics, chemistry as well as biology and geology. Using the theme of searching for life elsewhere, this course will introduce, as well as reinforce, topics especially in astronomy, physics and chemistry. This course has been designed as an upper level science course for students majoring in IDLS. A special emphasis will be placed on the teaching of these topics in the PreK-8 classroom.
