[Grad-postdoc-assn] Expert Science Reviews for Climate and Energy Educational Resources Requested

[Paula Fisher]

**

Dear colleague,

Climate or Energy Scientist? Please provide your expertise by /reviewing 
short educational resources like videos, visualizations, lesson plans/ 
(review time about 15-40 min) for scientific accuracy. The need for 
climate change educational materials that are scientifically and 
pedagogically rigorous is greater than ever before. We are seeking 
science reviewers with an /expertise in climate science, climate change 
and energy topics/ and are hoping to draw from the wide range of 
expertise within UCAR/NCAR.

The NSF-funded Climate Literacy and Energy Awareness Network (CLEAN) 
(http://cleanet.org) is stewarding a collection of digital educational 
resources for grades 6-16 that address climate and energy topics. 
Resources are put through our rigorous peer-review process.All resources 
have already passed two rounds of general review and a review panel made 
up of educators and scientists before we send them out for an expert 
science review.Because of the broad scientific scope of climate and 
energy related educational resources, we need this additional Expert 
Science Review for resources that passed the review panel -- _that is 
where you can help._ Please provide your expertise to assure that the 
resources we are making available to educators and students are 
scientifically accurate.

How can you get involved? Either provide us with your contact 
information here: http://cleanet.org/clean/community/reviewer.html or 
contact us directly:

-Anne Gold (anne.u.gold at colorado.edu <mailto:anne.u.gold at colorado.edu> 
or 303-735-5514)

-Tamara Ledley (tamara_ledley at terc.edu <mailto:tamara_ledley at terc.edu>).

You can make a difference in climate education! Please sign up to be a 
science reviewer for the field of your expertise and we will contact you 
periodically with the request of a review.
