Through teachers that have been trained in GLOBE protocols, students learn how to conduct scientific investigations and collect data in their community. And you did this with integrity, respect, diversity, and collaboration while creating deep engagement in education and outreach.
Department of State. Caryn Long, middle school science teacher at Montverde Academy Florida , share more about the program and its recent recognition. Their responses have been edited for clarity.
Tony Murphy: GLOBE has a strong community of citizen scientists, students, and teachers all over the world who are eager to contribute to Earth system science research. GLOBE allows people to contribute to data collection and submission, to understand the scientific research process and the work of scientists, and to see how their local environment fits into the regional and global environment.
GLOBE is different from other science education programs because it educates students while also immersing them in the practical and applied nature of science. Knowing they are contributing to real research with NASA scientists is a powerful motivational tool to get them to practice the skills of observation, data collection, and analysis in a real and meaningful way.
They want to practice the skills they are developing because what they are doing is valued. Was it an interest in the planet, or an interest in the related technologies — or both? I started working in EO following a technological interest in the area of special satellite platforms and sensors used for gravity measurements.
My interest in the many other technologies applied in EO and in their numerous applications quickly followed, fueled by increasing concern about the impacts of human activities on the Earth system. I am convinced there is no real limit to matching high tech in space with the desire and need to observe the Earth, our living planet.
