The DataStreme Project: Teacher Enhancement through the Use of Current Environmental Data Across the Curriculum

ESI-9453205是美国气象学会与美国国家气象局、气象频道和气象专业学会成员合作的一个全国性项目。在五年的时间里，4100名K-12年级的教师将直接接受关于大气和相关地球环境的强化课程，每年提供两次。该课程基于电子传输的数据流和实时交付的学习材料。它将强调通过以问题为中心或以事件为导向的自然环境调查来教授综合科学。领队教师，即那些完成了22天培训的人，将在其学校内担任顾问，达到至少4.1万名教师的第二梯队。与此同时，他们将努力提高行政人员、家长和学校董事会成员对电子传输数据流在其学校的教育潜力的认识。该课程将通过由经验丰富的教师、大学教师和专业气象学家组成的50个本地实施团队来实施。该项目这一方面的关键是它将通过小组会议、互联网或更常见的使用天气频道的垂直消隐间隔来交付。

ESI-9453205 This national project brings together the American Meteorological Society in cooperation with the National Weather Service, The Weather Channel and members of the AMS professional society. During five years, 4,100 teachers from grades K-12 will be trained directly, in an intensive course offered twice yearly, on atmospheric and related Earth environments. The course is based on electronically transmitted data streams and learning materials delivered in real time. It will emphasize the teaching of integrated science through problem-focused or event driven investigations of the natural environment. Leader teachers, those who have completed the twenty two days of training, will act as resource persons within their schools, reaching a second tier of at least 41,000 teachers. At the same time, they will work towards raising the awareness administrators, parents and school board members of the educational potential of electronically-delivered data streams in their schools. The course will be implemented through 50 Local Implementation Teams composed of experienced teachers, college faculty and professional meteorologists. The KEY to the this aspect of the project is it will be its delivery via a combination of group meetings, by Internet or more commonly using the Vertical Blanking Interval of the Weather Channel.
