Digital Library for Earth System Education
The Digital Library for Earth System Education (DLESE) is a distributed community effort involving educators, students, and scientists working together to improve the quality, quantity, and efficiency of teaching and learning about the Earth system at all levels. DLESE resources include electronic materials for both teachers and learners, such as lesson plans, maps, images, data sets, visualizations, assessment activities, curriculum, online courses, and much more. The National Science Foundation provided funding for the development of DLESE, which is now operated by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Computational and Information Systems Laboratory and the NCAR Library on behalf of the education community. Resources can be found by browsing the subject lists or searching grade level (or grade range) and specific science concept. Among some of the unique resources are Virtual Fieldtrips, which provide students with the opportunity to dive with submarines to map the ocean floor, travel to the tops of mountains to learn about volcanoes, step back in time to see Yellowstone National Park, or learn about chemicals in their own homes. Included are national instructional standards as well as evaluation and assessment modules of the projects completed. For educators looking for unique resources to stretch the minds of young scientists, take a look at DLESE.
