... The amount of energy encircled by an aperture used for stellar photometry will depend on both the aperture size, and also on any variations in the PSF with field position, time, etc. ... The differences in photometric magnitude between apertures with various radii (i.e. aperture corrections), and their mean and standard deviations for the F555W filter, are presented in Table 5.5 . ... Variations in the PSF with field position will, of course, cause a position dependence in the aperture corrections. ...

. Over the last two years, we ve developed and run a set of four astrophysics MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses), offered for free to anyone in the world who wants to take them. Around a quarter of a million students from 180 countries have enrolled in the courses - considerably more than have graduated from the ANU science it was founded. I ll present the lessons learned from this experience.
