The project creates a prototype set of processes and products for an international team of curriculum developers to work collaboratively with research scientists in the International Geosphere Biosphere Project (IGBP) of the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU). This is a high priority area for research in teaching and learning, science the large investment being made by the NSF, other U.S. organizations, and other countries in IGBP research provides an unprecedented opportunity to inform science education. The project is urgent with regard to availability of data because of a special opportunity created by the ICSU. The ICSU has initiated a science education project that will translate research findings of IGBP scientists and disseminate them for use in the education systems of the world. Developers from the U.S. and U.K. will draft the first prototype instructional modules in a workshop in 1990, as part of a two-year formative development process. The project takes advantage of this opportunity to build knowledge and experience that will establish infrastructure for such collaborations among the scientific and educational communities. The project will not only create and test prototype learning materials, but also document key factors involved in the process, such as roles of scientists in the project, incentives and mechanisms for their involvement, opportunities and obstacles to scientist-educator collaboration internationally, multi-country testing and adaptation of learning materials, mechanisms for teacher and student involvement in scientific research processes.

该项目为国际课程开发团队创建了一套流程和产品的原型，以便与国际科学联盟理事会（ICSU）的国际地圈生物圈项目（IGBP）的研究科学家合作。这是教学和科学研究的一个高度优先的领域。美国国家科学基金会、其他美国组织和其他国家在IGBP研究方面的大量投资为科学教育提供了前所未有的机会。由于国际公务员联会创造了一个特殊的机会，因此该项目在提供数据方面非常紧迫。国际科学联合会发起了一个科学教育项目，该项目将翻译IGBP科学家的研究成果，并将其传播给世界各地的教育系统。来自美国和英国的开发人员将在1990年的一个研讨会上起草第一个原型教学模块，作为两年形成开发过程的一部分。该项目利用这个机会积累知识和经验，为科学和教育界之间的这种合作建立基础设施。该项目不仅将创建和测试原型学习材料，还将记录过程中涉及的关键因素，例如科学家在项目中的作用、他们参与的激励和机制、科学家-教育者国际合作的机会和障碍、学习材料的多国测试和改编、教师和学生参与科学研究过程的机制。
