Spokes: Medium: Western: Collaborative: Big Data to Promote Community Learning and Impact

该项目将在加州州立大学洛杉矶分校、洛杉矶市GEOHub、社区合作伙伴和社会公平参与地理数据学者（SEEDS）计划之间建立合作伙伴关系，以提供对城市大数据收集的访问和更好的利用。该合作伙伴关系将把GeoHub数据作为决策工具介绍给积极性高、种族多样化、具有公民意识的学生，并提高公民对GeoHub数据使用的参与度。该项目活动将促进广泛的人口访问和了解洛杉矶的开放数据门户，特别是传统上处于不利地位和不太可能获得数字连接的群体。它将提供培训，使公民和非营利组织能够熟练使用大数据，赋予公民权力，使他们能够看到数据驱动的政府在行动，并有效地参与公民决策，并使地方城市对所有人来说更加宜居和公平。有了公民的参与，开放数据门户可以变得可持续，并且独立于地方、州或国家政府的政治变化。洛杉矶市将向加州州立大学洛杉矶分校、社区合作伙伴和非营利组织提供GeoHub帐户，以免费访问软件和应用程序，并培训加州州立大学的教职员工，这些教职员工将反过来培训他们的学生使用GeoHub的数据和可视化应用程序。这些学生将帮助社区合作伙伴培训非营利组织使用GeoHib来满足他们的所有服务需求。这种方法将有效地接触到不同社区的大量用户和贡献者。该项目将在人文、社会科学、地球科学、政治科学、公共卫生和土木工程等学科中，利用GeoHub的实践服务学习活动，制作课程模块。它还将生成数据访问和可视化手册，并支持以社区为基础的研究项目。该项目计划与西部大数据中心的大数据教育和扫盲工作保持一致，并有助于西部大数据中心的跨部门活动。该奖项由改善本科STEM教育：教育与人力资源（IUSE）： EHR计划（NSF 17-590）共同资助。IUSE支持旨在通过开发新的课程材料和教学方法以及开发新的评估工具来衡量学生学习的项目。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The project will create a partnership among California State University Los Angeles, City of Los Angeles (LA) GEOHub, Community Partners, and the Social Equity Engagement geo-Data Scholars (SEEDS) Program to provide access to and greater utilization of the city's big data collection. The partnership will introduce GeoHub data as decision making tools to highly motivated, ethnically diverse, and civic-minded students and increase participation of citizens in using GeoHub data. The project activities will promote widespread access to and understanding of LA's open data portal among a broad cross-section of the population, especially groups that are traditionally disadvantaged and less likely to be digitally connected. It will provide training that will allow citizens and non-profits to become proficient in the use of big data, empower citizens so that they can see data-driven government in action and effectively participate in civic decision-making, and make local cities more livable and equitable for all. With citizen involvement, open data portals can become sustainable and independent of political changes in the local, state, or national governments. The City of Los Angeles will provide California State University Los Angeles, community partners, and non-profit organizations GeoHub accounts to access software and apps free of charge and train California State faculty members who will, in turn, train their students in GeoHub's data and visualization applications. The students will help Community Partners to train non-profit organizations to use GeoHib for all of their service needs. This approach will effectively reach large numbers of users and contributors in diversified communities. The project will produce course modules with GeoHub hands-on service learning activities in disciplines across humanities, social sciences, geosciences, political sciences, public health, and civil engineering. It will also generate data access and visualization manuals and support community-based research projects. The project plan aligns with the Western Big Data Hub big data education and literacy efforts and contributes to the Hub's cross-sector activities.This award is co-funded by the Improving Undergraduate STEM Education: Education and Human Resources (IUSE): EHR Program (NSF 17-590). IUSE supports projects that are designed to improve student learning through development of new curricular materials and methods of instruction and development of new assessment tools to measure student learning.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.
