The Wright State University project "K-12 Students, Teachers, Parents, Administrators and Higher Education Faculty: Partners Helping Rural Disadvantaged Students Stay on the Pathway to a Geoscience Career" is a research-based proof of concept track 1 pilot project that tests the effectiveness of an innovative model for simultaneous K-12 teacher professional development, student learning, and workforce development. The project is building a network of science experiences designed to engage eighth and ninth grade students from the Ripley, Union, Lewis, Huntington (RULH) school district, located in rural Appalachian Ohio, and keep them on the path to a geoscience career. During each summer of the two-year project, teams of RULH students, parents, teachers, administrators and college faculty travel to the facilities of the New Jersey Sea Grant Consortium at Sandy Hook, New Jersey to study science from an Earth system perspective. Teachers have the opportunity to engage in professional development alongside their students. During each of the two academic years of the project, additional professional development enrichment is provided to RULH teachers of various disciplines by a team of university scientists and geoscience educators from the Earth System Science Education Alliance (ESSEA), a NSF funded project. RULH students engage in problem-based science learning in the eighth grade and have the opportunity to take a course in Earth system science in the ninth grade that will earn them both high school and college science credits. Students also engage in community outreach by hosting community science events.

赖特州立大学项目“K-12学生，教师，家长，管理人员和高等教育教师：合作伙伴帮助农村残疾学生留在通往地球科学职业生涯的道路上”是一个基于研究的概念轨道1试点项目的证明，测试同时K-12教师专业发展，学生学习和劳动力发展的创新模式的有效性。该项目正在建立一个科学经验网络，旨在吸引来自俄亥俄州阿巴拉契亚农村地区的里普利、尤尼恩、刘易斯、亨廷顿（RULH）学区的八年级和九年级学生，并使他们走上地球科学职业生涯的道路。在为期两年的项目的每个夏天，RULH的学生，家长，教师，管理人员和大学教职员工的团队前往新泽西海赠款财团在桑迪胡克，新泽西的设施，从地球系统的角度研究科学。教师有机会与学生一起参与专业发展。在该项目的两个学年的每一个学年，由来自地球系统科学教育联盟（ESSEA）的大学科学家和地球科学教育工作者组成的团队为各个学科的RULH教师提供额外的专业发展丰富，这是NSF资助的项目。 RULH学生在八年级进行基于问题的科学学习，并有机会在九年级参加地球系统科学课程，这将为他们赢得高中和大学科学学分。学生还通过举办社区科学活动参与社区外展。
