It will have a deep potentiality at game, guide and auxiliary teaching aid. Now starry sky teaching is just explain in class at school, and require students practice astrolabe after class at night. Students have to rotate plate to find the constellations and moon. It really needs a convenient device to starry sky teaching. This research develops a starry sky teaching aids, user stands on balanced board and change his (her) center-of-gravity position to control the view of starry sky. It can be more intuitive to astrolabe, and deepen the learning of direction and angle of elevation. This aids use Wii balanced board to be the main control Interface, it provides such as move the view of starry sky and change angle of elevation to user in starry sky. This research designs action coding with user participation. At teaching aids of view, it follows the curriculum, lets students learning course and enables to complete mission. This research finishes prototype of system by iterative development process, and have a conclusion by analyzing user''s behavior of operating and interview of teacher.
