Demonstrate how scientists work, Demonstrate how, through the use of telescopes, astronomers can draw conclusions on what they observe in the Universe, Demonstrate how a very complex scientific instrument works The Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope is an education partner of Las Cumbres Observatory Global Telescope Network (LCOGTN). Our aim is to provide free access to robotic telescopes and a fully supported education programme to encourage teachers and students to engage in research-based science education. Access to our resources and those of our partners is provided at no charge to teachers and students. Robotic Telescopes LCOGTN operates a network of research class robotic telescopes. Currently there are two telescopes, one in Hawaii and the other in Australia. These telescopes are available to teachers for them to use as part of their curricular or extra-curricular activities and are fully supported by a range of educational materials and a team of educators and professional astronomers. http://www.faulkes-telescope.com/resources/videos/ft-lcogt_introduction
