Broadening Participation of Native Americans in Computer Science Using Indigenous Dialogue

Silver Buffalo咨询公司正在请求支持，以便在美洲土著科学院成员和西方科学家之间就如何利用信息技术的进步来代表土著科学概念展开对话。目前的目标是让美国土著知识持有者和西方科学家见面并开始对话。长期目标（超出了这个项目的范围）是开发保存本土科学所需的信息技术，并使其对本土学生开放。一个额外的结果将是一系列研究问题的清晰表达，这些问题将吸引美国土著学生参与计算。

Silver Buffalo Consulting is requesting support to begin a dialogue between members of the Native American Science Academy and Western scientists on ways to utilize advances in IT to represent Indigenous science concepts. The immediate goal is to have Native Americans knowledge holders and Western scientists meet and begin a dialogue. The long range goal (beyond the scope of this project) is to develop the IT needed to preserve native science and make it accessible to Native students. An additional result would be the articulation of a set of research problems that would engage Native American students in computing.
