We present our outreach program, the Thailand–UK Python+Astronomy Summer School (ThaiPASS), a collaborative project comprising UK and Thai institutions and assess its impact and possible application to schools in the United Kingdom. Since its inception in 2018, the annual ThaiPASS has trained around 60 Thai high-school students in basic data handling skills using Python in the context of various astronomy topics, using current research from the teaching team. Our impact assessment of the 5 day summer schools shows an overwhelmingly positive response from students in both years, with over 80% of students scoring the activities above average in all activities but one. We use this data to suggest possible future improvements. We also discuss how ThaiPASS may inspire further outreach and engagement activities within the UK and beyond.

ThaiPASS项目:将天文学和Python融合在一起的国际推广

我们介绍了我们的推广计划,泰国-英国Python +天文学暑期班(ThaiPASS),这是一个由英国和泰国机构组成的合作项目,旨在评估其影响以及对英国学校的可能应用。自2018年成立以来,一年一度的ThaiPASS使用来自教学团队的最新研究,在各种天文学主题的背景下,使用Python对大约60名泰国高中学生进行了基本数据处理技能的培训。我们对为期5天的暑期学校的影响评估显示,在这两年中,学生都获得了压倒性的积极反响,超过80%的学生在所有活动中的得分均高于平均水平,但一项活动除外。我们使用这些数据来建议未来可能的改进。我们还将讨论ThaiPASS如何激发英国及其他地区的进一步宣传和参与活动。
