LIGO Website Objectives
The LIGO website and its resources can be used by students, teachers, or anyone interested in the science concepts. The main objective of the website is to provide a knowledgebase that teachers can use in conjunction with various pedagogical tools to infuse LIGO science activities and resources in instruction. The website could actually be the mechanism by which teachers are assisted in creating web-based training modules centered on the LIGO science concepts, use the multi-media rich web-based resources to promote inquiry-based learning, and/or blend web-based training modules and inquiry-based teaching to facilitate learning.

This page is dedicated to the "LIGO Pacesetters". These are individuals who are in the forefront of educating students - both secondary and postsecondary - about LIGO Science Concepts. Periodically, this site will be updated with examples of what the Pacesetters are doing. Click on the links below to be redirected to these presentations.
