What do I get with my single user Middle School or High School purchase?

You'll receive a copy of the Teachers\' Guide, Starry Nightt Education software, the SkyTheater DVD, and a Quickstart Guide.

 What does the Teachers’ Guide Contain?

The Teachers’ Guide is 350 pages for Middle School and 415 pages for High School. They contain detailed lesson plans to help teachers easily and thoroughly cover topics from their Earth Science, Space Science, Physics, and Astronomy courses. Each lesson plan is correlated to grade level and national and state/province standards so that teachers can choose the ones most appropriate to their specific class and lesson. Within each of the lessons, there are student worksheets, hands-on activities, software integration into Starry Night™, and short DVD clips.

Can I buy the Teachers’ Guide separately?

No. The Education Line products were built specifically to run with custom configured software. Using the Teacher’s Guide with other versions of Starry Night™ or without the software at all would not adequately explain the lesson plans.

What is the difference between Starry Night™ Education software and other Starry Night™ software?

Since the Starry Night™ Education software was designed specifically for a classroom setting, student exercises are integrated into the software. Students will have tasks to follow and questions through the SkyGuide interface. This feature is not available in our consumer level product lines.

 Can I buy multiple seat licenses?

 Yes. Please contact our sales representative.

Can I upgrade from an older version of Starry Night™ EDU or other Starry Night™ software product to Starry Night™ Middle School or Starry Night™ High School?

Yes. Please contact our sales representative.
