Learning Through Collaborative Visualization: A Model for Sixth-Generation Project Science

项目增强科学学习（PESL）提供学习 合作伙伴的机会，从事真正的科学 通过学徒制进行调查。 这种调查往往是 通过学习伙伴之间的动态互动， 身体接触 然而科学和商业实践 使用互联网和宽带服务认识到， 交互所需的所有伙伴可以位于同一地点。 我们的愿景是使用新技术来扩展协作 PESL的“覆盖范围”包括远程教育中的各种专业知识， 学习者、教师和科学家。 这项工作，在大气科学，扩展合作 从异步纯文本电子邮件到共享的媒体 双路音频/视频连接， 对于科学现象、数据、 你所看到的就是我所看到的（WYSIWIS）。 工具 局域和广域网络化学习环境将 实现高度互动、媒体丰富的通信， 学习伙伴。 对这些学习架构的研究 将提供教学和社会协议， 在课堂上验证科学学习经验 和其他空间。 更大的学习动机和增强 科学学习的有效性、绩效 评估应来自学生的参与。 下一个十年将带来广泛的网络化多媒体 人际计算 该项目将提供一个 有效利用人际关系的蓝图 科学教育的协作媒体。

Project Enhanced Science Learning (PESL) offers learning partners opportunities to engage in authentic scientific inquiry through apprenticeship. Such inquiry is often enabled by dynamic interactions among learning partners in physical proximity. Yet scientific and business practice using Internet and broadband services recognizes that not all partners necessary to an interaction can be co-located. Our vision uses new technologies to extend the collaborative "reach" of PESL to include diverse expertise among remote learners, teachers, and scientists. This work, in atmospheric sciences, extends collaborative media beyond asynchronous text-only email to shared workspaces and two-way audio/video connections that allow for collaborative visualization of science phenomena, data, models - What You See Is What I See (WYSIWIS). Tools for local- and wide-area networked learning environments will enable highly interactive, media-rich communications among learning partners. Research on these learning architectures will provide pedagogy and social protocols for authenticating the science learning experience in classrooms and other spaces. Greater motivation to learn and enhanced science learning in terms of more valid, performance assessments should result from students' participations. The next decade brings widespread, networked multi-media interpersonal computing. This project will provide a blueprint to inform the effective use of interpersonal collaborative media for science education.
