Hello ISTA-talk Teachers, Argonne National Laboratory, Eastern Illinois University, and the University of Utah are collaborating in a large weather project involving the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement program ( ARM ). One aspect of the project is the development of near real-time models of ARM data which would be user-friendly enough to be used by students and teachers during a study of the weather. It is the intent of the project collaborators that teachers might eventually develop lessons and activities which incorporate these models and contribute them to the National Science Digital Library. A short teacher survey has been created which shows three data plot examples and asks for your opinion and rating. The PI and Co-PI of the project would welcome your input. http://www.nsdl.arm.gov/Education/TeacherSurvey.htm A breakout session describing the project and seeking teachers interested in involving their own classes is scheduled at the ISTA Convention in Peoria at 3:30 pm Friday, Oct. 12th, Room 220.
