The goal of this proof-of-concept proposal is to revise and document the effectiveness of a teacher-friendly regional geology field guide. This revision targets Earth Science teachers with limited geological background knowledge, and will enhance teachers' capacity to 1) provide local and regional examples for geology/earth science concepts and 2) facilitate the delivery of inquiry-based earth science instruction as outlined in the National Science Education Standards. The teacher-friendly field guide/inquiry materials will be adapted from the "Northeast Geology Field Guide" and developed through a summer institute format with teachers. Impact of the guide's ability to foster inquiry teaching and learning will be assessed employing a video-based analysis grounded in STAM (Secondary Teaching Analysis Matrix).

这一概念验证提案的目标是修订和记录教师友好的区域地质实地指南的有效性。 这次修订的目标是地质背景知识有限的地球科学教师，并将提高教师的能力，1）提供地质学/地球科学概念的地方和区域实例，2）促进提供国家科学教育标准中概述的基于探究的地球科学教学。教师友好的实地指南/调查材料将改编自“东北地质实地指南”，并通过与教师的暑期学院格式开发。 将采用基于STAM（中学教学分析矩阵）的视频分析来评估该指南促进探究式教学和学习的能力的影响。
