UCAR SciEd is interested in translating our educational resources to broaden their reach for all learners. When funding is available, we have translated resources into several different languages. The following are examples of translated work.
Classroom Activities
Argos: Using Satellites to Learn About Animals
The Using Satellites to Learn About Animals educational resources were developed in collaboration with Argos, a system of instruments aboard satellites used to track tagged animals around the world and help understand other aspects of our planet.
Zika Zine
The Zika Zine is an outreach effort of the GLOBE Zika Education and Prevention Project. This informal education resource was translated into ten languages and disseminated to librarians and teachers in the GLOBE Mission Mosquito network.
GLOBE Weather: an NGSS-driven Middle School Curriculum
With GLOBE Weather, middle school students explore phenomena related to weather and storms during a five-week unit to help them understand weather at local, regional, and global scales.
DUST PIRE: Exploring Atmospheric Dust
UCAR Center for Science Education collaborated with scientists from several U.S. universities, led by a team from the University of Rochester, to develop educational resources for science centers, museums, and science festivals that tell the story of atmospheric dust and how it affects Earth system variability.
