Description
A virtual lab handout and guide to accompany Star in a Box simulation http://starinabox.lcogt.net/
Allows students to develop an understanding of stellar evolution as seen on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.
Using Star in a Box web-based simulation kids can alter the mass of the star and watch the evolutionary stages happen. They can collect data on luminosity, temperature, radius, lifetime.

Used this resource for curriculum and lesson development.
This was great to have something already put together for Star in Box and not having to create my own.
Great resource that was helpful when planning.
This website was very engaging for students.
Great practice for understanding the universe.
Great!
Great virtual lab to help students with HR diagram and life cycle of a star. Thank you!
It took some time for the students to figure out how to use the simulation. On the whole, it was a good virtual lab. More explicit instructions to help students who are unfamiliar with the simulation would have been useful.
