This award will support a new effort to develop a national framework for Earth Science literacy; this document of Big Ideas and supporting concepts will be a community undertaking representing the current state-of-the-art research in Earth sciences. It will be written, evaluated, shaped and revised by the top scientists working in Earth science. The outcome of this effort will be a statement of what the Earth science research community feels all American's should know about Earth Science. The participants will be scientists and educators, with expertise from the diverse portions of the Earth Science, to fully represent the breadth of research within our field. The process of establishing a set of essential principles and fundamental ideas that best represents the entire community will require several steps that are lead by an organizing committee. Broader community input will come through two separate stages: an online workshop of 120-150 people to be held during May 12-24, 2008, and an in-person writing workshop of about held during July 20-23, 2008. There will be final meeting of the organizing committee in January of 2009 to produce the final document from the output of these workshops and a following period of comments and evaluations. The online workshop will focus on vetting a broad scope of ideas from the Earth science research community, and in the in-person writing workshop will focus on combining this information into a coherent document. The outcome will be a living document that will continue to grow and change with future advances in our field. The project's outcomes will be directly tied to current NRC and AAAS science education standards. It will also become part of the foundation, together with similar statements from the Oceans, Atmospheres, Climate and other communities, for an even broader Earth System Science Literacy project.

该奖项将支持一项新的努力，以开发土地科学素养的国家框架；这份大思想和支持概念的文件将是一项社区，代表了地球科学目前的最新研究。它将由地球科学工作的顶级科学家编写，评估，塑造和修改。这项努力的结果将是关于地球科学研究界认为美国人对地球科学的所有知识的陈述。参与者将是科学家和教育工作者，并具有来自地球科学各个部分的专业知识，以完全代表我们领域的研究广度。建立一组最能代表整个社区的基本原则和基本思想的过程将需要由组织委员会领导的几个步骤。更广泛的社区意见将通过两个单独的阶段出现：在2008年5月12日至24日将在2008年5月12日至24日举行的120-150人的在线研讨会，以及在2008年7月20日至2008年7月20日举行的大约举行的面对面写作研讨会。2009年1月，组织委员会的最后会议将在这些工作室和以下评论和评估期间的最终文件中产生最终文件。在线研讨会将着重于审查地球科学研究界的广泛思想，在面对面的写作讲习班中，将重点将这些信息结合到一份连贯的文档中。结果将是一份活生生的文件，随着我们领域的未来进步，将继续增长和变化。该项目的结果将直接与当前的NRC和AAAS科学教育标准有关。它也将成为基金会的一部分，以及来自海洋，气氛，气候和其他社区的类似陈述，以进行更广泛的地球系统科学素养项目。
