10.6 RP Operations: Education<br />
NCAR<br />
In December, NCAR opened applications to the SIParCS program for 2011. This year, 18<br />
summer project descriptions were solicited from local mentors. NCAR conducted training in the<br />
VAPOR visualization tool at the American Geophysical Union 2010 meeting in San Francisco.<br />
Approximately 25 people attended.<br />
PSC<br />
PSC’s Pallavi Ishwad and Jacob Czech gave a 90-minute presentation on the CMIST module<br />
“Enzyme Structure and Function” at the education program at SC10. The presentation was wellreceived.<br />
About 25 educators, 15 from under-represented groups, attended the presentation and<br />
provided important feedback for further improvements to the module. CMIST (Computational<br />
Modules in Science Teaching) is a program of the National Resource for Biomedical<br />
Supercomputing (NRBSC) at PSC that aims to bring innovative science tutorials into secondary<br />
school classrooms, focusing on integrative computational biology, physiology, and biophysics.<br />
CMIST modules include high quality, biologically realistic 3-D animations produced with<br />
cutting-edge simulation and visualization software developed at NRBSC.<br />
Ishwad also gave a 90-minute presentation on BEST, Better Educators of Science for Tomorrow.<br />
About 40 educators, 15 from under-represented groups, attended. BEST is a PSC outreach<br />
program that exposes teachers to modern molecular biology concepts and evaluates inclusion of<br />
computational biology and bioinformatics into high school curriculum. In addition, BEST<br />
prepares teachers to refocus their teaching strategies towards exposing and encouraging students<br />
to become aware of emerging and exciting biomedical careers.<br />
