项目摘要

CCLI Type 2 ABSTRACT 1047557This project is an extension of a previous Type 1 project on the use of high altitude balloons in the undergraduate curriculum via the High Altitude Research Platform (HARP). Undergraduate students are able to design and build their own experiments that they launch into near space 20 miles above the earth's surface. Students in various STEM classes (engineering, chemistry, biology, mathematics, computer science, physics, meteorology, astronomy, earth science, etc.) are engaged in learning through the unique real-world conditions that traveling to near space provides (extreme variations in temperature, pressure, atmospheric composition, humidity, UV, cosmic radiation, light intensity, views of the earth below, etc.). Data is streamed to the students in real time every second as the balloon ascends and descends via the unique sensors. The complete system is available from StratoStar Systems, LLC. Faculty are able to attain course learning objectives using real-world, hands-on projects in an environment that motivates students. Overall, it provides the opportunity for students to engage in the complete scientific method by formulating a hypothesis, designing an experiment to test the hypothesis, performing the experiment during a balloon launch, analyzing the data, drawing conclusions about their original hypothesis and presenting their findings. Prototyping the implementation of HARP into undergraduate education science method classes for preservice middle school teachers is underway. The future teachers are developing sixth through eighth grade science and mathematics lessons using streaming video and data to field test the lessons. Faculty members representing over fifty colleges and universities have attended workshops of the use and incorporation of HARP into the undergraduate curriculum and over twenty six of these institutions have acquired a HARP system. Plans are being developed for a National network of schools to foster ongoing dissemination and exchange of curricular materials.
CCLI类型2摘要1047557本项目是之前的类型1项目的扩展,该类型项目是关于通过高海拔研究平台(HARP)在本科课程中使用高空气球。本科生能够设计和建造他们自己的实验,并将其发射到距离地球表面20英里的近空间。各种STEM课程(工程、化学、生物、数学、计算机科学、物理、气象学、天文学、地球科学等)的学生他们通过到近太空旅行所提供的独特的现实世界条件(温度、压力、大气成分、湿度、紫外线、宇宙辐射、光线强度、下面的地球景观等的极端变化)进行学习。随着气球的升降,数据每秒都会通过独特的传感器实时传输给学生。完整的系统可从StratoStar系统有限责任公司获得。教师能够在激励学生的环境中,通过实际操作的项目来实现课程学习目标。总体而言,它为学生提供了参与完整的科学方法的机会,通过制定假设,设计实验来验证假设,在气球发射期间执行实验,分析数据,得出关于他们最初的假设的结论,并展示他们的发现。HARP在中学教师本科教育科学方法课上的试行正在进行中。未来的教师正在开发六到八年级的科学和数学课程,使用流媒体视频和数据对课程进行实地测试。代表50多所学院和大学的教职员工参加了使用HARP并将其纳入本科课程的讲习班,其中26所以上的机构获得了HARP系统。目前正在制定全国学校网络计划,以促进课程材料的持续传播和交流。
