Workshop to Define Student Collaborative Climate Science Research; Silver Spring, MD

这一奖项被用来召开一个仅限受邀者参加的为期两天的研讨会，以定义学生合作气候科学研究。该研讨会由NSF/GEO和NOAA联合主办，旨在为让学生、教师和科学家参与关于地球气候变化的合作研究提供具体指导，地球气候变化是21世纪的主要科学主题之一。参与者将包括气候科学家、STEM教育研究人员和STEM教育从业者，他们有在正式和非正式学习环境中实施真实学生研究的经验。具体目标包括：1)确定开展气候科学合作研究对学生、教育工作者和科学家意味着什么，并审查学生气候相关研究在高质量科学教育中的作用；2)定义气候科学界感兴趣的气候相关研究领域，学生及其教师可以与科学家合作开展这些领域；3)在前景看好的研究领域内，充分详细地界定具体的合作研究项目，以指导数据收集、报告、分析和传播的实施计划的制定。

This award is being used to convene an invitation-only, 2.5 day workshop to define student collaborative climate science research. The goal of the workshop, which is being jointly sponsored by NSF/GEO and NOAA, is to produce specific guidance for engaging students, teachers, and scientists in collaborative research about Earth's changing climate, one of the major science topics for the 21st century. Participants will include climate scientists, STEM education researchers, and STEM education practitioners who have experience with implementing authentic student research in formal and informal learning settings. Specific objectives include: 1) defining what it means for students, educators, and scientists to conduct collaborative climate science research and examine the role of student climate-related research in high-quality science education; 2) defining climate-related research areas that are of interest to the climate science community and that can be conducted by students and their teachers, in collaboration with scientists; and, 3) defining within promising research areas specific collaborative research projects in sufficient detail to guide development of implementation plans for data collection, reporting, analysis, and dissemination.
