These professors understand and focus upon their audience deftly - teachers in grades 5-8 - by conveying their methodology in ways relevant to elementary teachers actually practicing their craft in the field. Young and Guy describe how self shadows can be recognized in the classroom “by turning on a bright light source and making the distinction between the cast shadow that is responsible for causing the eclipses and identifying the shadow on the surface of the object as the self shadow and responsible for causing the phases.” Therefore, the phases (conceptually) are detached from an eclipse. They explain that a “self shadow” (a shadow on an object) obstructs the light, forming on the light source’s opposite side - the self shadow is literally connected to the object impeding the light this, in contrast to a “cast shadow,” which is distinct from an object.
They propose a novel method to instruct the phases of the Moon, notably via a “self shadow,” in which learners’ comprehension of the Moon’s phases is informed by the difference between shadows that produce eclipses, and shadows that pertain to Moon phases. Professor Young and Professor Guy have composed a well-organized, practical, interactive, and concise article regarding teaching the Moon phases. They propose a novel method to instruct the.
