Descriptive Astronomy I: The Solar System (Csu), Rosa Williams, Kimberly Shaw

Physics and Astronomy Grants Collections

This Grants Collection for Descriptive Astronomy I was created under a Round Thirteen ALG Textbook Transformation Grant.

Affordable Learning Georgia Grants Collections are intended to provide faculty with the frameworks to quickly implement or revise the same materials as a Textbook Transformation Grants team, along with the aims and lessons learned from project teams during the implementation process.

Each collection contains the following materials:

• Linked Syllabus
• Initial Proposal
• Final Report
