项目摘要

Plate tectonics is the fundamental theory of geology that underlies almost all geological processes, including land and rock formation. However, the geologic processes and immense timeframes involved are often misunderstood. This study will create two curriculum units that use sophisticated simulations designed for students in secondary schools. The simulations will integrate the study of the tectonic system and the rock genesis system. Data from the simulations would be students’ sources of evidence. For instance, the Tectonic Rock Explorer would use a sophisticated modeling engine that uses the physics involved in geodynamic data to represent compressional and tensional forces and calculate pressure and temperature in rock forming environments. This project seeks to overcome the more typical approaches taken in earth science classrooms where such geologic processes are treated as discrete and highly predictable, rather than intertwined and dynamic. In addition, this study would include work on students with disabilities in earth science classrooms and explore the practices that seem to be particularly useful in helping understand these systems. By working with simulations, the researchers intend to engage students in scientific practices that are more authentic to the ways that geologists work. The researchers will study if and how these simulations and the computer-based tools allow students to observe and manipulate processes that would be may otherwise be inaccessible. This work follows on from prior work done by the Concord Consortium on simulations of earth systems. The design and development progression in Years 1 and 2 would create two units. The first module focuses on the relationship between tectonic movement and rock formation. The second would investigate geochronology and dating of rock formations. The researchers would work with 3 teachers (and classes), and then 15 teachers (and classes) using automated data logs, class observations, and video of students working in groups in Years 1 and 2. Professional development for teachers would be followed by the creation of educative materials. Researchers will also develop the framework for an assessment tool that includes understanding of geologic terms and embedded assessments. The researchers will used a mixed methods approach to analyze student data, including analyses cycles of analysis of students pre- and post-test scores on targeted concepts, reports of student performances on tasks embedded in the simulations, and the coding of videos to analyze discourse between partners and the supports provided by teachers. Teacher data will be analyzed using interviews, surveys and journals, with some special focus on how they are seeing students with identified disabilities respond to the materials and simulations. The research team intends to make materials widely available to thousands of students through their networks and webpages, and pursue outreach and dissemination in scholarly and practitioner conferences and publications.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

板块构造是地质学的基本理论，几乎是所有地质过程的基础，包括陆地和岩石的形成。然而，所涉及的地质过程和巨大的时间框架往往被误解。这项研究将创建两个课程单元，使用为中学生设计的复杂模拟。该模拟将把构造体系和岩石成因体系的研究结合起来。来自模拟的数据将成为学生的证据来源。例如，构造岩石探测器将使用一个复杂的建模引擎，该引擎使用地球动力学数据中涉及的物理学来表示压缩力和张力，并计算岩石形成环境中的压力和温度。该项目旨在克服地球科学课堂上采取的更典型的方法，这些地质过程被视为离散和高度可预测的，而不是相互交织和动态的。此外，这项研究将包括在地球科学课堂上对残疾学生的工作，并探讨在帮助理解这些系统方面似乎特别有用的做法。通过模拟工作，研究人员打算让学生参与更真实的地质学家工作方式的科学实践。研究人员将研究这些模拟和基于计算机的工具是否以及如何允许学生观察和操纵原本可能无法访问的过程。这项工作是继以前的工作所做的协和财团对地球系统的模拟。第1年和第2年的设计和开发进度将创建两个单元。第一个模块侧重于构造运动和岩石形成之间的关系。第二个项目将调查地质年代学和岩石形成年代。研究人员将与3名教师（和班级），然后15名教师（和班级）使用自动数据日志，课堂观察和学生在第1年和第2年分组工作的视频。教师专业发展之后将编写教育材料。研究人员还将开发评估工具的框架，其中包括对地质术语和嵌入式评估的理解。研究人员将使用混合方法来分析学生数据，包括分析学生在目标概念上的测试前和测试后分数的分析周期，模拟中嵌入的任务的学生表现报告，以及视频编码，以分析合作伙伴之间的话语和教师提供的支持。教师数据将使用访谈，调查和期刊进行分析，其中一些特别关注他们如何看待已确定残疾的学生对材料和模拟的反应。该研究团队打算通过他们的网络和网页向成千上万的学生广泛提供材料，并在学术和实践者会议和出版物中进行推广和传播。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
