Revealing Nature, Generating Insight: Gordon Conference, Workshops & Visionary Grants to Guide Research in Science and Education

四阶段项目建立在以前的戈登会议在科学和教育可视化的成功成果。它汇集了大约130名领先的国际研究人员和科学教育工作者：两个评估和设计研讨会;戈登科学和教育可视化会议;五个跨学科社区探索性研究的合作有远见的小额赠款;以及会后评估和规划的临时研讨会。该会议已在当前的提案中进行了重新组织，以将科学实践与科学教育联系起来。会议围绕概念主题而不是科学学科组织，以探索可视化和理解之间的联系。许多受邀的演讲者和围绕会议的所有拟议活动都将重点关注揭示自然和产生洞察力的学习和认知方面。

The four phase project builds on the successful outcomes of previous Gordon Conferences on Visualization in Science and Education. It brings together roughly 130 leading international researchers and science educators for: two workshops on assessment and design; a Gordon Conference on Visualization in Science and Education; five collaborative Visionary Mini-Grants for exploratory research across interdisciplinary communities; and a post-conference interim workshop for evaluation and planning. The conference has been re-organized in the current proposal to bridge science practice with science education. The sessions are organized around conceptual themes rather than scientific disciplines in order to explore the connections between visualization and understanding. Many of the invited speakers and all of the proposed activities surrounding the conference will be heavily focused on the learning and cognitive aspects of revealing nature and of generating insight.
