中文摘要
由美国36所部落控制的学院和大学组成的美国印第安人高等教育联盟(AIHEC)与国家大气研究中心(NCAR)合作,正在开发一个土著地球科学系列课程,该课程将传统的美国印第安人关于气候、天气和水的知识和观点与最先进的地球科学工具和实践相结合。该系列关注气候、天气和水的过程和问题,特别是与美国印第安人社区和部落土地相关的问题,预计将为TCU对气候变化感兴趣的学生提供基础。这些课程旨在为美国印第安人和其他学生提供机会,使他们深入了解与气候变化有关的物理、文化和技术问题,以及如何减轻气候变化对地球和人类的影响。课程系列有两个组成部分。第一个是一个学期的本科气候变化科学课程,从北美原住民的传统生态知识的角度来教授。第二个是基于土著的研究实习,利用网络基础设施访问地球科学数据、仪器和计算资源,为部落学院的学生提供一个机会,与NCAR的长老、社区成员和研究导师合作,实践最先进的电子科学。该项目正在使用nsf支持的本土STEM评估框架进行评估,并应形成一个可在所有tcu和其他高等教育机构中使用的计划。
英文摘要
The American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC), which is comprised of 36 tribally-controlled colleges and universities (TCUs) in the United States, in collaboration with the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), is developing an Indigenous Geosciences course series that integrates traditional American Indian knowledge and perspectives on climate, weather, and water with state of the art Geoscience tools and practices. The series is focused on climate, weather, and water processes and issues that are particularly relevant to American Indian communities and tribal lands and is expected to provide a foundation for TCU students interested in climate change. The courses are being designed to provide American Indian and other students the opportunity to gain a thorough understanding of the physical, cultural, and technological issues associated with climate change and the mitigation of its effects on the earth and its people. The course series has two components. The first is a semester-long undergraduate climate change science course taught from the perspective of the traditional ecological knowledge held by Native peoples of North America. The second is an Indigenous-based research practicum using Cyberinfrastructure-enabled access to Geosciences data, instrumentation and computing resource that provides an opportunity for Tribal College students to practice state-of-the-art e-Science, in collaboration with elders, community members, and research mentors at NCAR. The project is being evaluated using the NSF-supported Indigenous Framework for STEM evaluation and should result in a program that can be used throughout all TCUs and other institutions of higher education.
