CLEA SOFTWARE	ALTERNATE MANUAL (click on description to download the manual)
*GRAPHICAL DETERMINATION OF THE PERIODS OF JUPITER'S MOONS*	A neat application of the Jupiter's Moon's software by Jan Dabrowski, Marylhurst College, Portland, Oregon. Set the software so that there is no automatic identfication of the moons, and students can make a graphic plot of positions versus time that they can use to identify the moons and their orbital parameters. *Zipped Adobe PDF Files*
*THE PERIOD OF IO*	Another neat application of the Jupiter's Moon's software by Jan Dabrowski, Marylhurst College, Portland, Oregon. Students measure the position of Io over time and determine its period. *Adobe PDF File*
*THE* *ORBITS OF THE MOONS OF JUPITER*	A modified and somewhat shorter version of the Jupiter's Moons Exercise written for use in an astronomy course at Mercer University by R.S. Armour, Jr, Fall 2001 *MS-Word File*
*THE REVOLUTION OF THE MOONS OF JUPITER*	A shortened and revised version of the exercise in determining the mass of Jupiter by observing just Callisto and Ganymede. Updated for the 2008 version of the software. By Chaz Hafy, Brookhaven College, Farmers Branch, Texas. *MS-Word File*
*THE REVOLUTION OF THE MOONS OF JUPITER*	A shorter version from Fred Ringwald and Steve White, California State University, Fresno *MS-Word File*
*THE REVOLUTION OF THE MOONS OF JUPITER*	A shorter version from David Vakil, El Camino College *MS-Word File*
*THE HUBBLE LAW: Red-shift Distance Relation*	A student manual from Lauren Likkel, University of Wisconsin, Eau Claire *MS-Word File*
*THE HUBBLE LAW: The Expanding Universe*	An alternate version from David Vakil, El Camino College *MS-Word File*
*THE LARGE SCALE STRUCTURE OF THE UNIVERSE (And PULSARS)*	An alternate version of the Large-Scale Structure Lab with a short addendum on Pulsars written for use in an astronomy course at Mercer University by R.S. Armour, Jr, Fall 2001 *MS-Word File*
*TECHNIQUES OF STELLAR ASTRONOMY: STELLAR SPECTRA AND B-V PHOTOMETRY OF THE PLEIADES*	A nifty combination of two CLEA software programs to show the complementary use of photometry and spectroscopy to characterize the stars in an open cluster written for use in an astronomy course at Mercer University by R.S. Armour, Jr, Fall 2001 *MS-Word File*
*DYING STARS AND THE BIRTH OF THE ELEMENTS*	An alternate version from Lucy Kulbago, John Carroll University, which has a format that is more like other CLEA manuals. *MS-Word File*
*THE QUEST FOR OBJECT X*	An alternate version from Lucy Kulbago, John Carroll University, which is designed for use as a lab practical, and which assigns three unknowns, along with the corresponding data tables. *MS-Word File*
