Abstract
As a student participating in the AAVSO's Hands-On Astrophysics: Variable Stars in the Physics/Math Lab (HOA) project, I have learned how to observe variable stars, begun to understand the astrophysical reasons for stellar variability, and am now able to contribute my observations in response to AAVSO Alert Notices. My involvement in HOA was the driving force for my high school science project.
