21st GLOBE Annual Meeting

全球学习和观测有益于环境（GLOBE）计划是一项由美国宇航局和国家科学基金会共同支持的国际科学和科学教育合作计划，并得到了美国国家海洋和大气管理局，国务院和美国国际开发署的额外实物支持。通过使用基于探究、基于地点和基于问题的方法，GLOBE直接支持国家努力让新一代不同的学生参与科学、技术、工程和数学（STEM）学科，并鼓励他们考虑从事STEM职业。GLOBE年会将GLOBE国家协调员和美国伙伴关系协调员、支持GLOBE的科学界成员以及赞助机构的代表聚集在一起。年度会议提供了一个场所，既可以分享通过社区的创造性努力开发的GLOBE实施的最佳实践，也可以提供使用GLOBE计划资源和技术的额外培训。这将是GLOBE的第21届年会，为社区提供了一个反思和庆祝他们的许多成就的机会，并专注于有效实施该计划的新兴机会。该奖项为2017年全球年会提供部分支持，该年会于7月30日至8月3日在康涅狄格州纽黑文的南康涅狄格州立大学举行。预计全球社区的150多名成人成员和50名学生成员将出席。大气研究大学联盟（UCAR）和GLOBE执行办公室（GIO）正在领导这次会议的规划工作，来自GLOBE社区的其他成员的贡献。本次会议的具体目标包括：1）审议一套与城市地区海岸复原力有关的研究协议; 2）通过科学博览会和强调公众参与科学机会等方式，分享在社区实施GLOBE的最佳做法; 3）向与会者介绍当前的GLOBE技术，帮助学生开展研究并提出研究供同行审查; 4）允许学生在第四届学生研究展上展示他们的研究; 5）使用GLOBE协议让学生参与科学研究实地考察; 6）通过使用GLOBE作为教育背景，分享STEM公平和包容的最佳实践。为期2天的学生研究经验的基础上全球协议将组织作为为期一周的会议的一部分。

The Global Learning and Observations to Benefit the Environment (GLOBE) program is a cooperative international science and science education program jointly supported by NASA and NSF, with additional in-kind support from NOAA, Department of State, and USAID. Using inquiry-based, place-based, and problem-based pedagogies, GLOBE directly supports national efforts to engage a new generation of diverse students in the science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) disciplines and encourage them to consider careers in STEM. GLOBE annual meetings bring together GLOBE Country Coordinators and U.S. Partnership Coordinators, members of the scientific community that support GLOBE, and representatives of the sponsoring agencies. Annual meetings provide a venue for both sharing of best practices for GLOBE implementation that have been developed through the creative efforts of the community, as well as additional training in the use of GLOBE program resources and technology. This will be the 21st annual meeting for GLOBE, offering an opportunity for the community to both reflect on and celebrate their many accomplishments and focus on effective implementation of emerging opportunities for the program. This award provides partial support for the 2017 GLOBE Annual Meeting, which is being held July 30- August 3 at Southern Connecticut State University in New Haven, CT. Over 150 adult members and 50 student members of the worldwide GLOBE community are expected to attend. The University Consortium for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) and the GLOBE Implementation Office (GIO) are leading the planning effort for this meeting, with contributions from other members of the GLOBE community. Specific objectives for this meeting include:1) considering a set of protocols for research related to coastal resilience in urban areas; 2) sharing best practices for implementing GLOBE in communities such as through science fairs and highlighting public participation in science opportunities; 3) introducing participants to current GLOBE technology that helps students to conduct research and present research for peer review; 4) allowing students to present their research at the 4th Student Research Exhibition; 5) engaging students in a scientific research field trip using GLOBE protocols; and 6) sharing best practices for STEM Equity and Inclusion by using GLOBE as the educational context. A 2-day student research experience based on GLOBE protocols will be organized as part of the week long meeting.
