Atmospheric, climate, ocean, earth and environmental sciences (geosciences) are among the least diverse fields in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). A lack of diversity in STEM fields means decreased ability to identify and solve critical issues facing society such as climate change, which disproportionately affects the populations that are least represented in STEM. The Data in Geosciences in Teaching project aims to increase diversity in the geosciences by supporting high school teachers in school districts with diverse student populations to sustainably build their science programs to include the types of geoscience student learning experiences that increase the likelihood that these students will pursue STEM careers. Classroom and field-based geosciences lessons will be co-created by teachers and community geosciences partners (industry, government, and academic). This project aims to make real change in the district science programming by providing a long-term commitment of resources, supporting teachers using local geoscience experiences and expertise, and building sustainable partnerships.This project seeks to create a systematic approach to ensuring equitable access to geoscience learning experiences for local high school educators and professionals through creation of a geosciences learning ecosystem that will incorporate the assets and expertise of Community Geosciences Partners, professional learning experiences, their existing science curriculum, newly created geosciences learning experiences, and evidence of student impacts to support iterative design of the student learning experiences. The goals of this project are to: (1) design and implement a series of experiences for high school science teachers to engage with local Geoscience Community Partners and their data to foster learning and collaborations (Teacher Learning); (2) facilitate the co-creation of student learning experiences that increase the number of authentic, data-rich, and locally-and/or personally-relevant geoscience lessons taught in local high school science courses (Student Learning); and (3) create and implement a sustainability plan with the local high school science programming that includes continued collaborations between high school science teachers and local Community Geosciences Partners (System Level Change).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.

大气，气候，海洋，地球和环境科学（地球科学）是科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）中最少的领域之一。 STEM领域缺乏多样性意味着降低了识别和解决社会面临的关键问题（例如气候变化）的能力，这对STEM中最少代表的人群不成比例。教学项目中的地球科学数据旨在通过支持具有不同学生人群的学区的高中教师来可持续建立其科学计划，以包括地球科学的学生学习经验，从而增加这些学生从事STEM职业的可能性，以增加地球科学的多样性。教师和社区地球科学合作伙伴（行业，政府和学术）将共同创建课堂和基于现场的地球科学课程。该项目旨在通过提供资源的长期承诺，使用当地的地球科学经验和专业知识来支持教师，并建立可持续的伙伴关系。经验，现有的科学课程，新创建的地球科学学习经验以及学生对学生学习经历的迭代设计的影响的证据。该项目的目标是：（1）设计和实施一系列高中科学教师与当地地球科学社区合作伙伴及其数据互动以促进学习和协作的经验（教师学习）； （2）促进学生学习经验的共同创建，以增加当地高中科学课程（学生学习）教授的真实，数据丰富和本地和/或与个人相关的地球科学课程的数量； （3）与当地高中科学节目制定并实施可持续性计划，其中包括高中科学教师与当地社区地球科学合作伙伴之间的持续合作（系统级别的变化）。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准来通过评估来通过评估来支持的。
