Abstract
Abstract To build educational capacity for the rapidly evolving science and profession of geocomputation, the American Association of Geographers piloted an Encoding Geography research-practice partnership (RPP) composed of geography and computer science educators and researchers. This commentary describes the process, known as Collective Impact, that was implemented to investigate the persistent problems of practice that have limited the participation of women and minorities in geocomputational education and careers. We also discuss the RPP’s data-driven approach for developing an inclusive curriculum pathway aligned with student aspirations.
为了为快速发展的地理计算科学和专业建设教育能力,美国地理学家协会(American Association of Geographers)试点了一个由地理学和计算机科学教育者和研究人员组成的编码地理学研究实践伙伴关系(RPP)。这篇评论描述了被称为“集体影响”的过程,该过程的实施是为了调查限制妇女和少数民族参与地理计算教育和职业的实践中持续存在的问题。我们还讨论了RPP的数据驱动方法,以开发符合学生愿望的包容性课程路径。
期刊介绍:
Journal of Geography is the journal of the National Council for Geographic Education. The Journal of Geography provides a forum to present innovative approaches to geography research, teaching, and learning. The Journal publishes articles on the results of research, instructional approaches, and book reviews.
