Prose0331151Intellectual MeritThis grant lays the groundwork for a project that will integrate cutting-edge international geologic research with the development of innovative multimedia Earth sciences educational resources. The PIs, Doug Prose and Diane LaMacchia of Earth Images Foundation, are carrying out pre-production and production activities for two Earth science documentary videos and a classroom guide and interactive DVD for each. The PIs are collaborating with research scientists, a Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) television production director at KQED in San Francisco, and a curriculum specialist to prepare and execute the shooting plan for filming the initial activities of several major scientific programs. Filming will cover the deep drilling to install sensors 4km deep in the San Andreas Fault, to penetrate the Hawaiian shield lava down to pre-existing seafloor, and the recovery of million year old sediments from Lake Malawi. Another effort will capture video from a multidisciplinary geophysical efforts surveying the ancient shield and accretionary arc in Venezuela and the Caribbean basin, and the evolution of the Appennine Mountains in Italy.Borader ImpactsThe PIs are creating a design plan to produce the classroom guides and DVDs; and preparing video treatments that produce videos compelling to both a PBS audience and to students in introductory Earth science classes. The video shooting plan, the educational material design plans, and video treatments are all evaluated by an external evaluator. The final products increase the availability of up-to-date Earth sciences educational materials that formally and informally increase science literacy and encourage young people to enter the Earth sciences as a profession. The DVDs also serve as a prototype for using new multimedia technology to organize and adapt the latest scientific research results into a rich learning experience. The PIs have filmed scientists that serve as role models to under-represented students in Earth sciences: women and minorities.

prose0331151Intlectualthis Thinthis Grant为一个项目奠定了基础，该项目将将尖端的国际地质研究与创新的多媒体地球科学教育资源的发展相结合。 地球图像基金会的PIS，Doug Prose和Diane Lamacchia正在为两个地球科学纪录片视频以及每个教室指南和互动DVD进行预生产和生产活动。 PIS与研究科学家合作，旧金山KQED的公共广播服务（PBS）电视制作总监，以及一名课程专家，以准备和执行拍摄计划，以拍摄几项主要科学计划的初步活动。拍摄将覆盖深度钻孔，以在圣安德烈亚斯（San Andreas）断层中安装4公里深处的传感器，以穿透夏威夷盾牌熔岩以降落到曾有的海底，并从马拉维湖恢复了百万年历史的沉积物。另一项工作将捕获来自多学科地球物理工作的视频，调查委内瑞拉和加勒比海盆地的古盾和增生弧，以及意大利的阿皮宁山脉的演变。BoraderImplasts PIS PIS创建了一个设计计划，以制定教室指南和DVD的设计计划；并准备视频治疗，为PBS受众和入门地球科学课上的学生提供引人注目的视频。 视频拍摄计划，教育材料设计计划和视频处理都由外部评估者评估。 最终产品增加了最新的地球科学教育材料的可用性，这些教育材料正式和非正式地提高了科学素养，并鼓励年轻人作为一种职业进入地球科学。 DVD还可以作为使用新的多媒体技术来组织和调整最新科学研究结果的原型。 PI拍摄了科学家，这些科学家是地球科学中代表性不足的学生的榜样：妇女和少数民族。
