Education for Global Change: Latin American Workshop

为了将国际科学联合会（科联）的全球变化教育项目扩展到拉丁美洲，提议举办这次讲习班，使拉丁美洲的科学家聚集一堂，确定“科学促进了解明天的世界：全球变化;“（生物学、化学、地球科学、物理学和一般研究课程的学生活动和教师指南），可以根据拉丁美洲的情况重新设计。 美洲全球变化研究所（IAI）成员国和IAI非成员国（由其他来源供资）各两名与会者将利用各自区域的数据和研究报告，为“全球变化”活动制定当地的扩展方案。" 讲习班将向与会者提供关于“全球变化”的必要背景资料;将用三天时间补充《全球变化》的各单元，供拉丁美洲的教师/学生使用;最后用一天时间最后确定拉丁美洲版《全球变化》的补编。“这次讲习班将为科联理事会的全球变化教育项目作出贡献，提供《全球变化》的西班牙文最后版本，其中将包括讲习班期间编写的一系列小插图。 本次研讨会将为拉丁美洲的教育工作者提供一个极好的机会，以评估他们对全球变化教育资源的需求，并将这些需求纳入专门针对拉丁美洲的“全球变化”版本。 此外，该研讨会有助于IAI提高美洲能力建设的科学目标。 该讲习班由科联理事会、Pro-Clim、美洲国家组织和美国国家科学基金会（代表IAI）共同赞助。 IAI是美国的一项倡议，旨在促进科学界对全球变化问题的合作研究。 美洲的机构。 国家科学基金会是美国政府机构，由白宫指定，在IAI内履行美国的职责。 ***

9632717 Stoltman In order to extend the International Scientific Union's (ICSU) Education in Global Change Project into Latin America, this workshop has been proposed to bring together scientists from Latin America to identify topics or sections of "Science for understanding tomorrow's world: Global Change;" (student activities and teachers' guide for courses in biology, chemistry, earth sciences, physics and general studies) that may be redesigned into a Latin American context. Using data and research reports from their regions, participants of this workshop, two from each Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) member country, and IAI non-member countries (funded from other sources), will develop local context extensions of activities in "Global Change." The workshop will provide participants with necessary background information about "Global Change;" will devote three days to supplement units in Global Change for use by teaches/students of Latin America; and will conclude with a day to finalize the supplements to the Latin American version of "Global Change." This workshop will contribute to ICSU's Education in Global Change Project by providing a final Spanish language version of "Global Change" which will include a series of vignettes that will have been developed during the workshop. %%% This workshop will provide an excellent opportunity for educators in Latin America to convene in order to evaluate their global change educational resources needs and to incorporate these needs into a version of "Global Change," specifically for Latin America. Additionally, this workshop contributes to the IAI scientific goal of increasing capacity building in the Americas. This workshop is being co-cponsored ICSU, Pro-Clim, the Organization for American States (OAS), and the United States National Science Foundation (NSF) on behalf of IAI. The IAI is a U.S. initiative to stimulate cooperative research on global change issues among the scientific institutions of the Americas. The National Science Foundation is the U.S. Government agency designated by the White House to carry out U.S. responsibilities within the IAI. ***
