This award is being used to convene a workshop of ~40 participants to define end-user needs related to geoscience education within the EarthCube initiative. The workshop brings together disciplinary faculty in the geosciences, educators experienced in teaching with geoscience data and developing associated curricula, representatives of NSF-sponsored research programs involved with generation of large data sets, as well as technologists, STEM education researchers, and learning scientists. The workshop is being held at the Scripps Forum (Scripps Institution of Oceanography) during the Spring of 2013. The workshop seeks to explore both the educational opportunities offered through the cyberinfrastructure capabilities of the EarthCube program and identify the educational needs for preparing undergraduate students and faculty to be the future contributors to the scientific research enabled by EarthCube. A major goal of this workshop is to establish an initial roadmap for educational activities that should be associated with or enabled by EarthCube. The workshop will consider the educational and instructional strategies not only to prepare students in undergraduate programs to be technologically-savvy users of EarthCube data and models, but also to build the future scientific capacity to advance Earth systems scientific research. Consideration will also be given to how EarthCube may serve as a platform for advancing STEM education research.

这项奖励将用于召开一次约40人参加的讲习班，以确定与地球立方体倡议范围内的地球科学教育有关的最终用户需求。研讨会汇集了地球科学的学科教员、在教授地球科学数据和开发相关课程方面经验丰富的教育工作者、NSF赞助的涉及大型数据集生成的研究项目的代表，以及技术专家、STEM教育研究人员和学习科学家。该讲习班于2013年春季在斯克里普斯论坛(斯克里普斯海洋学研究所)举行。研讨会旨在探索通过EarthCube计划的网络基础设施能力提供的教育机会，并确定培养本科生和教职员工成为EarthCube支持的科学研究的未来贡献者的教育需求。这次研讨会的一个主要目标是为应该与EarthCube相关或由EarthCube支持的教育活动建立一个初步的路线图。研讨会将考虑教育和教学战略，不仅使本科课程的学生成为精通EarthCube数据和模型的技术用户，而且还将建设未来的科学能力，以推进地球系统科学研究。还将考虑EarthCube如何作为推进STEM教育研究的平台。
