Funding for Jupyter & curriculum experts to put a learning module together in Jupyter? Should this be an ESIP special funded project too? Purpose: How to use coding as a tool to promote Earth Science learning/ ESIP content to school Using ESIP Hub: Sean Gordon, Ben, Keith Maul, Ben G, others - modify some project that already exist Frank G has good examples ProjectGUTS - http://159.65.232.49/ https://teacherswithguts.org/welcome Way to connect - earth science, citizen science, data Yes - move ahead - Sponsoring students Yes - move ahead- SACNAS student - Earth Science focus ($1000) (http://sacnas.org/) Attach some strings - report back Need to hear who is the recipient? What is this money used for? Any obligation? Where is the money sent? Is the presented by Erin Robinson Ask Erin to share her experience Other/More options - to teacher, Friends of Earth Science NESTA reception @ NSTA national; (NAGT, NOAA) - certificate No - Student @ EER ? ... ESIP summer workshop location (under discussion) … Yes - move ahead - Teacher Workshop @ ESIP Summer Meeting One day workshop Partial funding (registration) comes from NOAA ESIP funds stipends, instructors, materials Yes - move head - Presenting @ NSTA national 2019 (have an abstract in for 1 or 2 hour session) St. Louis (National): April. 11–14, 2019 (still waiting to hear on session proposal) Share a thon(s) 2 people Yes for 2 regional 2019 + Share-a-thon Charlotte-- Present @ Regional NSTA Share-a-thon @ Charlotte (Charlotte: Nov. 29–Dec. 1, 2018) Share a thon is Friday, November 30 11AM to 12PM What would we share?
