A Workshop to Design a Digital Research/Education Forum and "Pathway" for the Geosciences

该项目支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将研究、教育和数据管理界的成员聚集在一起，这些成员对地球科学数据和发现的有效教育使用和交付有共同的兴趣。讲习班的主题反映了一个重要的需要，即汇集和促进由地球系统研究计划支持的天文台和仪器收集的高质量观测数据的生产者与这些数据的最终用户之间的更大互动。虽然有许多教育工作者有动力将实时和接近实时的数据整合到K-16课程中，但如果数据以更方便用户访问的方式呈现，这一群体可能会得到更好的服务。如果数据更容易获得，格式更便于在各种教育环境中使用，那么使用地球系统数据的教育工作者的人数也可能会增加。讲习班和讲习班后活动解决这些重要问题，并寻求改善研究、教育和数据管理界之间的网络和互动。讲习班的一项成果是编写一份报告，其中载有指导今后教育和外联工作的调查结果和建议。

This project supports a workshop that brings together members of the research, education, and data management communities that have shared interests in the effective educational use and delivery of geoscience data and discoveries. The workshop topic reflects an important need to bring together and foster greater interactions between the producers of high quality observational data collected by observatories and instruments supported by Earth systems research programs and the end-users of those data. While there are a number of educators that are motivated to integrate real time and near real time data into the K-16 curriculum, this group could be better served if the data were presented in more user-friendly accessible ways. The number of educators using Earth systems data might also increase if data were more accessible and in formats that facilitated their use in a variety of educational settings. The workshop and post-workshop activities address these important issues and seeks to improve the networking and interactions among the research, education, and data management communities. An outcome from the workshop will be the preparation of a report with findings and recommendations that will guide future education and outreach efforts.
