The goal of this conference is to develop a k-12 Earth Science Education Framework. Approximately twenty geoscientists representing NASA, NOAA, USGS, and NSF-Geoscience research programs, twenty earth science teachers, and several specialists in earth science education will take part in a 5-day conference to undertake this task. A pre-conference paper will be prepared by each scientist delineating the major concepts of Planet Earth within their field of expertise. During small group sessions at the conference teachers will work with scientists to identify those concepts that are important for all students and those that should only be introduced to students desiring to pursue a career in one of the sciences. This award will only cover about ten percent of the cost of this conference. The major cost of the conference will be funded by other government agencies, publishing companies, school systems, and the American Geological Institute.

这次会议的目的是开发K-12地球科学教育框架。 代表NASA，NOAA，USGS和NSF-GEOSCIENCE研究计划，二十个地球科学教师以及地球科学教育的几位专家将参加为期5天的会议，大约有20名代表NASA，NOAA，USGS和NSF-GEOSCIENCE研究计划的地球科学家参加这项任务。 每位科学家将准备一份会议前论文，这些论文描绘了地球在专业知识领域内的主要概念。 在会议上的小组会议期间，教师将与科学家合作，确定那些对所有学生都很重要的概念，以及那些只能向希望从事一项科学从事职业的学生介绍的概念。 该奖项仅占本次会议费用的百分之十。 会议的主要成本将由其他政府机构，出版公司，学校系统和美国地质研究所资助。
