Teaching Anchor Concepts of Climate Change Through Sediment Core Archives

地球系统科学(40)这个项目正在将科学研究与地球科学课程的教育结合起来，为普通教育学生、职前教师和早期地球科学专业的学生服务。来自研究机构的研究专家和教育专家组成了这个项目的一部分，从R1研究到公共文科再到社区大学，他们开发和课堂测试了来自教育工作者未得到充分利用的档案的学习材料，以及综合海洋钻探计划和南极钻探计划从世界海洋中回收的深海沉积物岩芯。学习材料以真实的科学数据为基础。关于年龄、年代学和地球气候历史的基本调查实践和地球科学内容正在向大学教育工作者开放。我们对全球气候变化历史和高纬度地区对全球变暖的快速反应的理解目前取得的进展和面临的挑战，以及科学调查和发现的过程和兴奋，正在开发中，用于地球科学、海洋学和历史地质学入门课程。科学观察、分析和批判性思维技能被注入到练习中。学习材料的设计是为了让学生们离开时可以准备好参与社会对话和讨论，这些对话和讨论的中心是过去的气候变化和解释地球历史的科学基础。这些学习材料正通过JOILearning.org网站、SERC以及欧洲和日本IODP网站的链接分发。在会议上的陈述、期刊手稿以及为AGU教师讲习班提供便利，不仅向大学一级的地球科学教育工作者，而且也向科学家、高中和非正规教育工作者宣传项目成果学习材料。

Earth Systems Science (40)This project is integrating scientific research with education in geoscience courses that serve general education students, pre-service teachers, and early geoscience majors. A collaborative of research specialists and education specialists from institutions ranging from R1 research to public liberal arts to a community college are part of this project, developing and classroom-testing learning materials from an archive underutilized by educators, deep-sea sediment cores from the world's oceans recovered by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program and the Antarctic Drilling Program. The learning materials are based on authentic scientific data. Fundamental investigative practices and geoscience content on age, chronology, and Earth's climate history are being made accessible to college educators. Exercises on current advances and challenges to our understanding of global climate change history and the rapid response of the high latitudes to global warming, as well as the processes and excitement of scientific investigation and discovery are being developed for use in introductory earth science, oceanography, and historical geology courses. Scientific observational, analytical, and critical thinking skills are being infused in the exercises. The learning materials are being designed so that students can walk away ready to engage in societal conversations and discussions that center on past climate change and the scientific basis for interpreting Earth history. The learning materials are being disseminated through the JOILearning.org website, with links from SERC, and European- and Japanese-IODP websites. Presentations at conferences, journal manuscripts, and the facilitation of a teacher workshop at AGU are promoting the project outcome learning materials not only to college-level geoscience educators, but also to scientists, and high school and informal educators.
