SciDome users current and future, please submit for Spitz Institute 2016, the annual training and skills development event.

Spitz Institute is divided into two sessions, with fundamental SciDome topics covered during the first session (July 12-15) and more advanced concepts in the second (July 18-21). Attend one session or both, depending on your needs.

You’ll be able to explore planetarium education, with a focus on fulldome digital presentation for science learning. Courses cover curriculum and realtime planetarium demonstration for teaching, including a comprehensive introduction to Starry Night software. You’ll also explore production, digital audio, graphics, photography, and automation skills needed to create state-of-the-art educational programs.
