The Earth Science Resource Associates project will, over a five year period, develop and maintain a network of a minimum of 60 middle/high school teachers and 40 agency and university geoscientists and university science educators. Project activities will be delivered at multiple sites including a summer program at the University of Wisconsin- Madison campus; a conference at the Wisconsin Academy of Science (Madison), a summer field trip to selected areas; and a retreat at the UW System Pigeon Lake field station. The project consists of: 1. selecting exemplary middle/high school teachers who have a strong background in one or more of the earth sciences and selecting university, agency and business geoscientists with an interest in pre-college earth science education; 2. enhancing content in earth sciences of teacher participants through class and field experiences; 3. enhancing teacher participants' background in learning and teaching through class readings and discussions, and all participants through conference speakers and discussions; 4. developing a knowledge of existing programs and materials for teaching activity based earth science; 5. participants conducting local, district, and state workshops and seminars for teachers; and developing an ongoing network. The project proposes to directly effect an estimated 1,500 students in the teachers' classes each year, an estimated 200 teachers at workshops scheduled each year, as well as a large number of teachers attending information sharing presentations at state and area conferences.

地球科学资源伙伴项目将在五年内发展和维持一个至少由60名初中/高中教师、40名机构和大学地球科学家和大学科学教育工作者组成的网络。项目活动将在多个地点进行，包括威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的暑期项目；威斯康星科学院(麦迪逊)的会议；选定地区的夏季实地考察；以及在威斯康星大学系统鸽子湖野外站的务虚会。该项目包括：1.选择在一个或多个地球科学领域具有较强背景的示范性初中/高中教师，并选择对大学预科地球科学教育感兴趣的大学、机构和商业地球科学家；2.通过课堂和实地体验提高教师参与者的地球科学内容；3.通过课堂阅读和讨论加强教师的学习和教学背景，并通过会议演讲和讨论加强所有参与者的学习和教学背景；4.发展现有的基于地球科学的教学活动的计划和材料的知识；5.参与者为教师举办地方、地区和州的讲习班和研讨会；以及发展一个持续的网络。该项目提议每年直接影响1 500名教师班级的学生，估计200名教师参加每年安排的讲习班，以及大量教师在州和地区会议上参加信息分享演讲。
