Slooh Classroom

Curriculum-driven gamification of space exploration.

Overview

Slooh’s innovative space lab leverages a global network of robotic, online telescopes which are controlled by students and teachers to collect and analyze data in a series of ‘Quests’. Quests incorporate observational astronomy into every lesson and align with NGSS and Common Core Standards. Quests provide real-time student feedback and affirmation with the awarding of Gravity Points and badges for successful completion. The Quest curriculum begins with our home Earth-Moon-Sun system and advances outward to the Solar System, Stars, Nebulae, Galaxies, and Deep Space. Slooh’s suite of tools works in unison to make offering astronomy easy, engaging and affordable for schools without the requisite equipment or expertise on staff. No astronomy background is required and students are guided in self-directed learning with access to astronomy educators.
