Editor’s Note: One of the key goals of the Astronomy Education Review is to encourage open discussion about issues of interest to astronomy educators. We begin our series of opinion pieces with a contribution by veteran educator and author Jay Pasachoff on the subject of what we should be teaching in the introductory college astronomy course. We invite our readers to respond to his position and also to submit opinion pieces on other controversial topics. (Please see the "How to Submit" section of our site.)
