Report (PDF): Using Climate Data in the Classroom
The "Using Climate Data in the Classroom" Innovation Working Group was convened June 5-8, 2011 at the Valles Caldera Science and Education Center to investigate various aspects of using climate data in K-12 science classrooms.
IWG participants represented a broad spectrum of professionals interested in addressing data and climate literacy for students at all levels. Participants included a leading climate scientist, hydrologist, IHE faculty, most of who are involved with teacher preparation, a computer science professor who works on visualization and issues related to data dissemination, middle and high school science teachers, and earth science and computer science graduate students.
