生态学家和学习科学家之间的合作可以产生强大的模式，在生态学的科学推广。本文介绍了一个过程，学习科学家和生态学家共同设计的科学课程，邀请学生加入生态实践社区。在“云克之旅”中学科学课程中，学生们将参与由卢基略长期生态研究（LUQ LTER）科学家收集的数据生成的模拟模型。“云克之旅”学生们可以探索飓风后yagrumo（Cecropia schreberiana）、tabonuco（Dacryodes excelsa）、coquís（Eleutherodactylus coquí）、蜗牛（Caracolus caracola）、anoles（Anolis stratulus）和A. gundlachi）、隐翅臭角菇（Dictyophora indusiata）和毛虫（Historis odius）。基于生态学的修订埃尔云克之旅包括增加重复飓风对限制因素影响的模型，部分基于树冠修剪实验的结果。基于课堂测试的修订包括简化面向学生的模型控件，使学生能够专注于基本的模型组件。二十多年来，持续的合作使埃尔云克之旅保持在生态和教育进步的最前沿。我们将这项工作的长寿归功于（1）LUQ LTER的长期性质，（2）持续的跨学科合作，以及（3）我们与学校的长期关系。
Collaboration between ecologists and learning scientists can give rise to powerful models for scientific outreach within ecology. This paper presents a process by which learning scientists and ecologists codesigned a science curriculum that invites students to join an ecological community of practice. In theJourney to El Yunquemiddle school science curriculum, students engage with simulation models generated from data gathered by Luquillo Long Term Ecological Research (LUQ LTER) scientists.Journey to El Yunquestudents can explore post‐hurricane population changes in yagrumo (Cecropia schreberiana), tabonuco (Dacryodes excelsa), coquís (Eleutherodactylus coquí), snails (Caracolus caracola), anoles (Anolis stratulusandA. gundlachi), veiled stinkhorn mushrooms (Dictyophora indusiata), and caterpillars (Historis odius). Ecology‐based revisions toJourney to El Yunquehave included adding models of the effects of repeated hurricanes on limiting factors, based in part on findings from a canopy trimming experiment. Revisions based on classroom testing include simplifying student‐facing model controls to allow students to focus on the essential model components. The ongoing collaboration that keeps theJourney to El Yunquecurriculum on the cutting edge of ecological and educational advances has been sustained for over two decades. We attribute the longevity of this work to (1) the long‐term nature of LUQ LTER, (2) a sustained interdisciplinary collaboration, and (3) our long‐term relationships with schools.
