SPRINTT brings cutting-edge science research and Alaska Native traditional knowledge into K-12 classrooms, bridging the science and society divide while inspiring the next generation of polar explorers. SPRINTT is using an innovative, live, online training format to train hundreds of teachers in how to teach life, Earth, and physical science content in a polar context. Polar scientists directly inform the content and participate in the training. SPRINTT provides teachers with existing and adapted, high-quality, standards-based curricular materials and collaborates with science and education partners to simplify research data and create a user-friendly interface from which students perform their own authentic polar research projects. Students from around the world share their research findings through a collaborative space within the SPRINTT website. The aim is to prepare hundreds of teachers to teach about the significance of the Polar Regions within the Earth system and to present materials and tools with an Alaska Native lens. Through synchronous (live) and asynchronous collaborations, teachers share best practices as they infuse and adopt polar science into their curriculum and learn to effectively facilitate student research. SPRINTT impacts more than 25,000 upper elementary, middle, and high school students around the world. The majority of U.S. students are from underrepresented groups including Alaska Natives, and those from urban and rural areas. SPRINTT spreads the work of IPY-related partners including the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research, the Inuit Circumpolar Council, Alaska Native Science Commission, the International Polar Foundation, the National Snow and Ice Data Center, ANDRILL, WWF International, NOAA, Bering Sea Ecosystem Study, and GEOSummit. The project is engaging the public in polar discovery through guided student research projects. Innovative teacher training brings Earth's polar systems into the classroom, and promotes international cooperation as students examine the critical role of the polar regions in global processes and the changes to the Arctic as viewed by native peoples.

SPRINTT将前沿科学研究和阿拉斯加原住民传统知识带入K-12教室，弥合科学和社会鸿沟，同时激励下一代极地探险家。斯普林特正在使用一种创新的、实时的在线培训形式，培训数百名教师如何在极地环境中教授生命、地球和物理科学内容。极地科学家直接告知培训内容并参与培训。SPRINTT为教师提供现有的和适应的、高质量的、基于标准的课程材料，并与科学和教育合作伙伴合作，简化研究数据，创建一个用户友好的界面，学生可以从中进行自己的真实极地研究项目。来自世界各地的学生通过SPRINTT网站上的协作空间分享他们的研究成果。其目的是为数百名教师做好准备，教授极地地区在地球系统中的重要性，并以阿拉斯加原住民的视角展示材料和工具。通过同步（现场）和异步合作，教师在将极地科学融入课程并学习有效促进学生研究的过程中分享最佳实践。sprint影响了全球超过25,000名小学、初中和高中学生。大多数美国学生来自代表性不足的群体，包括阿拉斯加原住民，以及来自城市和农村地区的学生。SPRINTT传播国际极地年相关合作伙伴的工作，包括南极研究科学委员会、因纽特人环极理事会、阿拉斯加土著科学委员会、国际极地基金会、国家冰雪数据中心、ANDRILL、世界自然基金会、NOAA、白令海生态系统研究和GEOSummit。该项目通过引导学生研究项目，让公众参与到极地发现中来。创新的教师培训将地球的极地系统带入课堂，并促进国际合作，因为学生们将研究极地地区在全球进程中的关键作用，以及土著人民眼中北极的变化。
