	This is a relatively new Department at ~~Wikiversity~~, and its growth depends on the participation of everyone who seeks to learn about astronomy. The basic philosophy of ~~Wikiversity~~ is to learn by doing. This is reflected in the content of lessons and activities. However, "learning by doing" means more than just reading a lesson and following the directions; hopefully you will participate in the process of creating lessons and sharing your experiences.
