Under this grant, the University of Rhode Island will carry out its first, in a series, major initiatives in educational outreach related to the science and social science aspects of global environmental change through the mechanism of an Honor's Colloquium for the spring semester 1991. The Honor's Colloquium is a combination of public outreach, in the form of Wednesday evening public lectures and a complementary undergraduate course for freshman and sophomore Honor's students. The University of Rhode Island will bring world-renown educators and scientists to the campus during the spring 1991 for the Wednesday evening lectures. They will videotape the evening lectures for long-term educational prospects in the form of additional-to-offered- courses and the development of a new course for the distance- learning market. The invited speaker presentations will be published and available along with curriculum materials and readings to other interested educational institutions and public groups through a number of networks and mechanisms. A Colloquium volume will be produced through the Marine Technology Society through a special issue of the Marine Technology Society Journal. This activity is important because it seeks to increase the pool of qualified students entering the environmental sciences.

根据这笔拨款，罗德岛大学将通过 1991 年春季学期的荣誉座谈会机制，开展与全球环境变化的科学和社会科学方面相关的教育推广系列中的第一个重大举措。荣誉座谈会是公共宣传的结合体，其形式为周三晚上的公开讲座以及为大一和二年级荣誉学生提供的补充性本科课程。 罗德岛大学将于 1991 年春季邀请世界知名的教育家和科学家到校园参加周三晚上的讲座。 他们将以附加课程的形式录制晚间讲座，以实现长期教育前景，并为远程学习市场开发新课程。 受邀演讲者的演讲将通过一系列网络和机制与课程材料和读物一起出版并提供给其他感兴趣的教育机构和公共团体。 海洋技术协会将通过《海洋技术协会期刊》特刊制作研讨会卷。 这项活动很重要，因为它旨在增加进入环境科学领域的合格学生的数量。
