项目摘要

Large amounts of data have become available across fields in science, industry, government, healthcare and pharmaceuticals. Big data analytics and technologies hold tremendous promise to boost economic productivity, enhance national security and improve the quality of life. Recognizing the acute need for big data technology, the aim of this proposal is to create a national model by developing multi-year curricular material that allows course content in separate classes to be naturally inter-connected. In collaboration with industry (Lockheed Martin Inc. and HP Enterprise), this project designs a series of laboratory experiments in big data analytics and technologies that become more complex from the freshmen to the senior year. The proposed approach will cut across artificial course boundaries and introduce fundamental, contemporary and multidisciplinary big data concepts through a series of problem-oriented laboratory experiments. Students will also gain a better knowledge of policy, ethical, and societal impact issues of big data.The collaboration with Palmyra Cove Education Foundation will bring big data activities to K-12 and further evaluate the educational impact and increase related dissemination efforts. The activities run at Cove will excite K-12 students about engineering and enhance teacher expertise in mathematics, science and technology. Palmyra Cove will reach out to local underrepresented K-12 school districts targeting women and minorities. The Foundation will also organize a workshop for undergraduate students, university faculty and K-12 students and teachers on big data as applied to environmental engineering and the geosciences. The results will be disseminated through technical and educational conferences and journal articles.

科学、工业、政府、医疗保健和制药领域的大量数据已经变得可用。大数据分析和技术在提高经济生产力、加强国家安全和改善生活质量方面具有巨大的潜力。认识到对大数据技术的迫切需求，该提案的目的是通过开发多年课程材料创建一个国家模式，使不同班级的课程内容能够自然地相互联系。与工业界合作（洛克希德·马丁公司）和惠普企业），该项目设计了一系列的实验室实验，在大数据分析和技术，变得更加复杂，从大一到大四。拟议的方法将跨越人为的课程界限，通过一系列以问题为导向的实验室实验，引入基本的、当代的和多学科的大数据概念。与帕尔米拉湾教育基金会的合作将把大数据活动带到K-12，并进一步评估教育影响，并增加相关的传播工作。在Cove开展的活动将激发K-12学生对工程的兴趣，并提高教师在数学、科学和技术方面的专业知识。帕尔米拉湾将接触当地代表性不足的K-12学区，目标是妇女和少数民族。该基金会还将为本科生、大学教师和K-12学生和教师组织一次关于大数据应用于环境工程和地球科学的研讨会。研究结果将通过技术和教育会议以及期刊文章传播。
