The Portland Horizons Project: Integrating Science Education and Scientific Research

乔治9731541 在这个项目的3年期间，72名高中和中学教师和36名学生将作为大气研究小组的成员，研究波特兰周围的10个空气区。每年夏季的活动包括为期四周的大气相互作用研究课程和在污染事件期间为期一周的空气质量测量活动。预计在学年期间将通过行动研究项目转移到课堂。一个交互式网页将使所有合作伙伴能够获得数据、大气层的真实的时间模型和行动研究项目的说明。一所领先的高中将作为一个空气棚区的地平线空中站点，并将与其他四所初中/高中，地平线气象站点合作。

9731541 George During the 3 years of this project, 72 high school and middle school teachers and 36 students will work as members of atmospheric research teams studying each of ten airshed around the Portland, OR metropolitan area. Each summer's activities include a 4-week atmospheric interaction research course and a one-week air quality measurement campaign during a pollution episode. Transfer to the classroom is anticipated through action research projects during the academic year. An interactive webpage will enable all partners to access data, real time models of the atmosphere, and descriptions of the action research projects. A lead high school will serve as the Horizons-Air site for an airshed zone and will work collaboratively with four other middle/high schools, the Horizons-Met sites.
