Lesson 1 Lab: Basic Coordinates and Seasons
Lesson 1 Lab: NAAP Basic Coordinates and Seasons covers three different,
but related areas. Terrestrial coordinates and the celestial equatorial
coordinate system are covered and are used to explore the motion of the sun and
how it relates to seasons. This lab is aimed at increasing an understanding of
Longitude and Latitude, the Celestial Equatorial Coordinate System, the
ecliptic and how it relates to seasons.
Getting started with Lesson 1 Lab: NAAP Basic Coordinates and
Seasons:
·
First, select the following link and work through the background

o
Seasons and Ecliptic Simulator
After familiarizing yourself with the simulator interactives, follow
instructions and answer the questions in the Lesson1Lab_Basic_Coordinates_and_Seasons _1_.rtf 
Note: The Lab Simulators require Flash Player which is integrated into Windows
10 and work best with Internet Explorer (IE). To avoid technical issues IE is
recommended for running the simulations. If you try another browser you will
need to set up flash player options for that browser yourself. For example, if
you are using Chrome, go to the upper left of the URL browser entry, select
"Not Secure" then select "Allow" to give Chrome permission
to open the simulator.
