The award supports a two-day planning workshop that will bring together members of the geoscience community interested in outreach. The purpose of the workshop is to share and analyze experiences in order to identify patterns of success, difficulties, and needs and to delineate current working models. The overall goal will be to initiate the design of a larger network to engage the geoscience research community and to identify resource/support systems that will prove helpful for geoscientists struggling with how to do effective outreach without detracting from their research. Since the advent of Criterion 2 in 1997, plans for education and outreach activities have been encouraged as a pre-requisite for successful NSF proposals. Little effort has been made to identify successful models and to offer more concrete guidance and support to the research community. This workshop will identify successful Criterion 2 projects and identify both the hurdles faced and the benefits resulting from these outreach efforts. By documenting these case studies, proven skills and models for effective outreach strategies can be shared with other research scientists. This workshop will be an important first step in providing science researchers with the contacts, tools, and ongoing support to plan and implement valuable and viable outreach programs, developing a network that can serve as a resource/support group for geoscientists struggling with how to do effective outreach without detracting from their research, initiating a cultural shift within the geoscience research community, in which there is increased recognition of the value of outreach, and providing guidance to the geoscience community regarding the requirements of the NSF Criterion 2.

该奖项支持为期两天的规划研讨会，将汇集地球科学界的成员有兴趣在推广。研讨会的目的是分享和分析经验，以确定成功的模式、困难和需求，并描述当前的工作模式。 总体目标将是着手设计一个更大的网络，以吸引地球科学研究界的参与，并确定资源/支持系统，这些系统将证明有助于努力解决如何在不影响其研究的情况下进行有效推广的地球科学家。 自1997年标准2出现以来，教育和推广活动计划一直被鼓励作为成功的NSF提案的先决条件。在确定成功的模式和向研究界提供更具体的指导和支持方面所作的努力很少。 本次研讨会将确定成功的标准2项目，并确定面临的障碍和这些推广工作带来的好处。 通过记录这些案例研究，可以与其他研究科学家分享行之有效的外联战略技能和模式。 本次研讨会将是重要的第一步，为科学研究人员提供联系人，工具和持续支持，以计划和实施有价值和可行的推广计划，开发一个网络，可以作为一个资源/支持小组，为地球科学家努力如何在不影响他们研究的情况下进行有效的推广，在地球科学研究界发起文化转变，其中，人们越来越认识到外展的价值，并就NSF标准2的要求向地球科学界提供指导。
