Bridging the Poles: Education Linked with ResearchStephanie Pfirman and Robin BellOPP 0403532The Bridging the Poles workshop will bring together researchers from the Arctic and the Antarctic in a dialogue with educators to help polar scientists conduct meaningful education and outreach and reciprocally, to help educators include meaningful polar research in their classrooms. The workshop product will be a guide (printed as well as web-based) for linking polar education with research. Planning for the workshop began in the summer and fall of 2003 with identification of existing resources, solicitation of potential participants for the workshop, a special session on polar education for the American Geophysical Union in December as well as a planning meeting also held at AGU. Draft sections of the workshop guide are already being distributed to have a working copy for discussion during the workshop in June 2004. There will be a public comment period on the guide prior to its publication and broad dissemination of the web-based version in fall 2004.The workshop will advance knowledge and understanding about successful educational approaches and ways to harness synergies between research and education. The workshop and guide will define future directions for polar education, including needed infrastructure, which will also maximize the educational impact of the International Polar Year beginning in 2007. The workshop will build stronger partnerships between Arctic and Antarctic communities, and between polar education and research in order to engage the next generation of scientists, engineers and leaders, as well as to educate the general public about polar regions.

架桥极地：与研究相联系的教育Stephanie Pfiman和Robin BellOPP 0403532架桥极地研讨会将把来自北极和南极的研究人员聚集在一起，与教育工作者对话，帮助极地科学家开展有意义的教育和外联，并互惠地帮助教育工作者在课堂上纳入有意义的极地研究。讲习班产品将是将极地教育与研究联系起来的指南(印刷和网络版)。讲习班的规划工作始于2003年夏秋两季，确定了现有资源，为讲习班征集潜在参与者，12月为美国地球物理联盟举行了一次关于极地教育的特别会议，还在AGU举行了一次规划会议。讲习班指南的各节草稿已经分发，以便在2004年6月的讲习班期间进行讨论。在2004年秋季出版和广泛分发网上版指南之前，将有一段公众评议期。讲习班将增进对成功的教育方法和如何利用研究与教育之间的协同作用的知识和理解。讲习班和指南将确定极地教育的未来方向，包括所需的基础设施，这也将最大限度地发挥2007年开始的国际极地年的教育影响。讲习班将在北极和南极社区之间以及极地教育和研究之间建立更强有力的伙伴关系，以便让下一代科学家、工程师和领导人参与进来，并对普通公众进行关于极地地区的教育。
