Dr. Spangler will create a learning experience that uses the capability of the internet and sound instructional practices to freely disseminate current knowledge about Antarctic weather forecast methodologies and challenges. In addition, this web-based learning experience will generate excitement about the Antarctic which will be a focus of a major NSF program, International Polar Year, that will officially begin early in 2007. The Cooperative Program for Operational Meteorology, Education and Training (COMET) has a meritorious record of creating widely-used education and training modules used by the NOAA, universities, and around the world (www.comet.ucar.edu). Using this experience, COMET will work with recognized experts in Antarctic weather to create an engaging multimedia learning module. The final web materials will result from a script developed by partnering with experts in instructions design, graphics and animation, copyright and intellectual property, and quality assurance. COMET will also coordinate with the Education and Outreach program at UCAR to leverage resources between complementary efforts as they develop Antarctic educational materials targeted at K-12 audiences during this same timeframe.

Spangler博士将创造一种学习体验，利用互联网的能力和良好的教学实践，免费传播有关南极天气预报方法和挑战的现有知识。 此外，这种基于网络的学习经验将产生对南极的兴奋，这将是一个主要的NSF计划，国际极地年，将于2007年初正式开始开始的重点。 业务气象学、教育和培训合作方案（COMET）在创建NOAA、大学和世界各地广泛使用的教育和培训模块方面有着出色的记录（www.comet.ucar.edu）。 COMET将利用这一经验，与公认的南极天气专家合作，创建一个引人入胜的多媒体学习模块。 最后的网络材料将来自与指令设计、图形和动画、版权和知识产权以及质量保证方面的专家合作开发的脚本。 COMET还将与UCAR的教育和推广计划协调，在同一时间段内开发针对K-12受众的南极教育材料时，利用互补努力之间的资源。
