This project is creating the Earth Exploration Toolbook (EET), a collection of step-by-step examples, called chapters, to guide educators at both the pre-college and college levels on how to use, in an educational context, various Earth system tools and datasets that were developed and archived by and for scientists. The examples provide the educators with enough experience with and in-depth knowledge of these resources to be able to use them in other contexts, and to help their students use them to explore and investigate issues in Earth system science. Use of the EET is being promoted through teacher workshops and presentations at professional meetings. The EET is a Web site housed at the Science Education Resource Center (SERC) at Carleton College. The EET is accessible from the DLESE Community Center Web site. The EET is integrated into DLESE, with the EET Web site, each of the EET chapters, and the associated resources being cataloged in DLESE. A search within the DLESE Discovery System brings up both the chapter and the resources used, facilitating an educator's use of those resources. In addition, the review process is using the DLESE Community Review System. Entry to the DLESE Community Review System appears in each EET chapter, facilitating educator input after testing and eventual acceptance of the EET chapter into the DLESE Reviewed Collection. In addition to developing the EET chapters, the EET team is also developing a template that serves to facilitate the contribution of additional EET chapters by members of the DLESE community, and ensure the growth of the EET after the conclusion of this project. Significant co-funding of this project is being provided by the Division of Earth Sciences in the NSF Directorate for Geosciences in recognition of the importance that this collection of Earth system datasets and tools has on K-12 teachers and undergraduate faculty.

该项目正在编制《地球探索工具手册》，这是一个循序渐进的例子集，称为章节，指导大学预科和大学教育工作者如何在教育背景下使用由科学家开发和存档的各种地球系统工具和数据集。这些例子为教育工作者提供了足够的经验和对这些资源的深入了解，以便能够在其他情况下使用它们，并帮助他们的学生使用它们来探索和调查地球系统科学中的问题。正在通过教师讲习班和在专业会议上介绍来促进EET的使用。EET是一个位于卡尔顿学院科学教育资源中心（SERC）的网站。EET可从DLESE社区中心网站访问。EET被集成到DLESE中，EET网站、EET的每一章以及相关资源都被编入DLESE中。在DLESE发现系统中进行搜索，可以找到所使用的章节和资源，方便教育工作者使用这些资源。此外，审查进程正在使用DLESE社区审查系统。进入DLESE社区审查系统出现在每个EET章节，方便教育工作者输入后，测试和EET章节最终接受到DLESE审查收集。除了开发EET章节外，EET团队还在开发一个模板，以促进DLESE社区成员贡献更多的EET章节，并确保EET在该项目结束后的增长。 NSF地球科学理事会地球科学部正在为该项目提供重要的共同资助，以表彰该地球系统数据集和工具的收集对K-12教师和本科教师的重要性。
