  2. Task Overview

  3. Collaboration Model UNLV Leadership Teacher Participants • Knowledge and experience teaching science to secondary students. • Interest and comfort with technology. • Commitment to HQ science teaching & learning • Willingness to experiment with cyberlearning. • Resources • Support • Expertise • Commitment to supporting HQ science teaching & learning • Cyberlearning environment, R&D Cyberlearning with S&S

  4. Cyberinfrastructure - the new research environments that support advanced data acquisition, data storage, data management, data integration, data mining, data visualization and other computing and information processing services over the Internet. Cyberlearning – The use of networked computing and communications technologies to support learning.

  5. Why Curriculum?

  6. New and emerging science related to the ecological and hydrological impact of climate change on the unique environmental systems located in the states of Idaho, Nevada, and New Mexico.
