These materials will be designed to help increase middle school students' understanding of essential ideas about weather and climate. Our objective is to provide a wide audience of teachers, curriculum developers, teacher education faculty, and professional development providers with online access to a set of high-quality and interrelated activities built around Earth, ocean, and atmospheric phenomena and representations that can supplement or enrich their existing lessons or be integrated into new curriculum materials. This collection of climate literacy materials will be carefully aligned to the learning goals in Climate Literacy: the Essential Principles of Climate Science and in national and state science content standards. By disseminating this online collection widely within the science education community, we also aim to expand the use of NOAA-related scientific data, simulations, animations, and other types of representations in middle school curriculum materials and instruction and to stimulate research on how these materials can be used most effectively.","Maine Mathematics and Science Alliance, North American Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE), Technical Education Research Centers / TERC, University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Center for Science Education, University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) Center for Science Education, Montgomery County Public Schools" "Continuing of the National Ocean Sciences Bowl (NOSB) Competitions","Consortium for Ocean Leadership","2015: National Ocean Sciences Competition for High School Students",2015,NA15SEC0080002,"$1,500,000","Kristen Yarincik","District of Columbia",Washington,"District of Columbia",DC00,"38.90098, -77.02858","2015-09-01T00:00:00 - 2021-08-31T00:00:00","The National Ocean Sciences Bowl (NOSB), a nationwide high school academic competition managed by the Consortium for Ocean Leadership, has increased high school students’ knowledge of the marine sciences, including the science disciplines of biology, chemistry, physics, and geology for 25 years. The program has exposed students to the breadth of environmental, conservation and sustainability issues facing our global ocean as well as ocean-related careers available in all job sectors. The NOSB has addressed the national gap in environmental and Earth sciences in K-12 education by introducing high school students to and engaging them in ocean sciences, preparing them for careers in ocean science and other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines. Through preparing for and competing in the 25 regional competitions of the NOSB, up to 2,000 students from 300 schools across the nation each year have gained access to ocean science research, diverse marine environments, and experts in the field, all of which helped build the personal and career skills they need as our future leaders to weigh solutions to regional, national, and global ocean and environmental challenges such as climate change, resource exploitation, and habitat loss. The ocean, as a complex system, and focus of program, has also inspired student development of innovation, engineering, and technology skills.","Seward Association for the Advancement of Marine Science / Alaska SeaLife Center, Florida Atlantic University / Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute, George Mason University / Center for Climate Change Communication (4C), Pittsburgh Zoo & PPG Aquarium, San Francisco State University (SFSU) / Center for Science and Mathematics Education, University of South Florida / College of Marine Science (CMS), NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Oregon State University (OSU) / College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, University of Alaska (UA-Fairbanks) / College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, University of Alaska (UA-Fairbanks) / College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, University of Colorado Boulder / Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES), University of Miami / Cooperative Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Studies (CIMAS), University of New England (UNE) / Center for Excellence in the Marine Sciences (CEMS), University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC) / Institute of Marine Science, Marine Education Center at the University of Southern Mississippi’s Gulf Coast Research Laboratory Gulf Coast Research Laboratory, University of Washington (UW) / School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences (SAFS), Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) / Marine Advisory Services, Youngstown State University, National Sea Grant College Program / New York Sea Grant College Program, National Sea Grant College Program / Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), National Sea Grant College Program / University of Connecticut, Old Dominion University (ODU) / Ocean, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, National Sea Grant College Program / Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), National Sea Grant College Program / Texas A&M University, Michigan Sea Grant, National Sea Grant College Program / University of Washington (UW), Stanford University / School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences, Eastman Chemical Company, Savannah State University / Department of Marine & Environmental Sciences, Texas A&M University at Galveston, University of Michigan / School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) / CILER, The University of Texas at Austin / Marine Science Institute, National Sea Grant College Program / University of Alaska (UA-Fairbanks) / Alaska Sea Grant, National Sea Grant College Program / University of Delaware / Delaware Sea Grant, National Sea Grant College Program / University of Hawaii System / Hawaii Sea Grant, National Sea Grant College Program / University of Maine / Maine Sea Grant, National Sea Grant College Program / University of New Hampshire (UNH) / New Hampshire Sea Grant, State University of New York at Stony Brook / School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS), Rutgers University / Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences, Rutgers University / Department of Marine and Coastal Sciences, University of San Diego / Department of Environmental & Ocean Sciences, California State University at Monterey Bay / School of Natural Sciences, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee / School of Freshwater Sciences, University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) / MarineQuest, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), American Honda Foundation, University of Miami / Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science, East Carolina University (ECU) / Coastal Studies Institute"
