This NSDL Usage Development Workshops project is increasing and improving the use of NSDL Science Literacy Maps as tools for understanding K-12 science learning progressions and for selecting and using NSDL resources. To foster the broader adoption and meaningful use of the interactive maps, the project leaders are: (1) conducting face-to-face workshops to introduce users to the Science Literacy Maps and engage them in activities designed to help them understand and use all of the map features; (2) developing just-in-time online learning tools that are accessible through the Science Literacy Maps home page and the individual NSDL Pathways' web sites; and (3) undertaking a broad dissemination strategy that leverages the capabilities of AAAS and the collaborating NSDL entities. This work is guided by an analysis of user needs, an expert advisory group, and an evaluation plan designed to provide necessary formative input as well as summative data. Feedback from workshop participants is also informing the long term development of the Science Literacy Maps in a user-driven process. Finally, to contribute to the NSDL program's goal of testing "the impact of collections and resources for instructors on teachers' activities," the investigators are examining the extent participants in the workshops are able to subsequently apply the knowledge and skills gained to accomplishing educational tasks.

这个NSDL使用开发研讨会项目正在增加和改进NSDL科学素养地图的使用，作为理解K-12科学学习进程和选择和使用NSDL资源的工具。为了促进互动地图的广泛采用和有意义的使用，项目负责人：(1)举办面对面的研讨会，向用户介绍科学素养地图，并让他们参与旨在帮助他们理解和使用地图所有特征的活动；(2)开发即时在线学习工具，可通过科学素养地图主页和各个NSDL路径网站访问；(3)采取广泛的传播策略，利用AAAS和NSDL合作实体的能力。这项工作的指导是对用户需求的分析、专家咨询小组和旨在提供必要的形成性投入和总结性数据的评价计划。讲习班参与者的反馈也为科学素养地图在用户驱动过程中的长期发展提供了信息。最后，为了实现NSDL项目的目标，即测试“教师的收集和资源对教师活动的影响”，调查人员正在检查研讨会参与者随后能够将获得的知识和技能应用于完成教育任务的程度。
