摘要

摘要气候变化导致的生物多样性丧失是欧洲研究议程的首要问题。然而,科学界和教育界之间存在着巨大的差距:只有一小部分现有知识能够到达年轻一代。我们面临的挑战是如何将生物多样性研究的成果转化为学校课堂的现实——以一种提高12至19岁学生的兴趣、意识和动机的方式。我们开发了教育软件PRONAS(学校自然预测)来展示科学家如何处理气候变化对许多欧洲物种栖息地影响的问题。研究人员利用大约50种欧洲植物和动物物种来证明相互作用物种的栖息地丧失、栖息地转移和栖息地动态失配。软件采用自下而上的方法开发,并与教师密切合作编写了软件在课堂上的应用手册。我们加入了教学方法的特定元素,如描述未来情景的故事情节,物种未来气候生态位的预测和模拟,以及虚拟和真实短途旅行的结合。PRONAS的德文和英文版本可在http://www.ufz.de/pronas-lernsoftware上免费获得。来自德国和其他欧洲学校的约100名教师在6个教师研讨会上以及来自4所德国学校的141名学生提供了反馈。虽然大多数教师都认为知识转移的设计形式很有吸引力,有助于知识的建立和意识的提高,但许多16岁以上的学生感到缺乏挑战。总之,我们发现“教育软件”是一种有用的科学推广形式,值得科学家和教育者共同努力,需要更多的支持和激励科学家朝着这个方向前进。

Biodiversity impacts of climate change – the PRONAS software as educational tool
Abstract. Loss of biodiversity under climate change is on the top of European research agendas. However, there is a huge gap between the scientific and the educational communities: Only a small amount of current knowledge reaches the young generation. We faced the challenge of how to transfer results of biodiversity research to the reality of school classrooms – in a way that raises interest, awareness and motivation among students from the age of 12 to 19. We developed the educational software PRONAS (PROjections of NAture for Schools) to show how scientists handle questions about the impact of climate change on the habitats of many European species. About 50 European plant and animal species have been used to demonstrate habitat losses, habitat shifts, and mismatch of habitat dynamics of interacting species. The software was developed with a bottom-up approach, and a manual for applying the software in the classroom was written in close cooperation with teachers. We included specific elements of didactic approaches such as storylines describing future scenarios, projections and simulations of species' future climatic niches, as well as the combination of virtual and real excursions. PRONAS is freely accessible in German and English on http://www.ufz.de/pronas-lernsoftware . Feedback was given by about 100 teachers from German and other European schools at six teacher workshops and by 141 students from four German schools. While most teachers confirmed that the designed format of knowledge transfer is attractive and contributes to knowledge building and awareness raising, many students older than 16 felt under-challenged. Altogether, we found that "educational software" is a useful format for scientific outreach which is worth joint efforts of scientists and educators and which needs more support and incentives for scientists to go forward in this direction.

期刊介绍: Web Ecology (WE) is an open-access journal issued by the European Ecological Federation (EEF) representing the ecological societies within Europe and associated members. Its special value is to serve as a publication forum for national ecological societies that do not maintain their own society journal. Web Ecology publishes papers from all fields of ecology without any geographic restriction. It is a forum to communicate results of experimental, theoretical, and descriptive studies of general interest to an international audience. Original contributions, short communications, and reviews on ecological research on all kinds of organisms and ecosystems are welcome as well as papers that express emerging ideas and concepts with a sound scientific background.
