Engaging with Polar Scientific Challenges: Collaboration and Innovation

Join us in exploring critical scientific challenges in the polar regions, focusing on environmental changes, global linkages, and human dimensions. Participants will select breakout groups based on their expertise and interests, engage in collaborative brainstorming sessions, and document their findings on the SWIKI platform. Our objective is to foster collaboration among scientists, educators, and decision-makers, culminating in actionable projects with high potential for funding and impact. Together, we will leverage the unique vantage point of polar regions to better understand our planet.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Instructions • Select a group • Select leader, recorder, timekeeper, presenter • Record notes on SWIKI and/or flip charts • Review • Summarize into final report • Save completed template on the SWIKI

  2. Scientific Challenges/Themes • Status: present environmental status • Change: natural environmental and social change • Global Linkages: links and interactions between polar regions and the rest of the globe • New Frontiers: science in the polar regions • Vantage Point: use polar region vantage point to observe interior of Earth to the Sun • Human Dimensions: cultural, historical, social processes that shape circumpolar human societies

  3. Scientific Challenges/Themes • Select a breakout based upon: • What your expertise is in • Where you see collaboration points • What speaks to you/touches your heart

  4. Audiences • Scientific/Research Community • Young & Potential New Polar Researchers • Pre-university Education Community • Arctic Communities • General Public • Decision-Makers

  5. Collaboration & Cross-Collaboration Outreach Modes & Methods • Web Sites • Films • Exhibits • Television • Formal K12 Education • Adventures • Others Cross-theme/cross-scientific challenge

  6. What is the SWIKI? http://cybele.colorado.edu:8080/IPYOE Username: ipyoe Password: ipyoe • Easy-to-use • Collaborative tool • Workshop repository

  7. Outcomes Breakouts 1 & 2: a 3 minute report to share: • Collaborative & funding ideas • Top projects with the greatest potential • Most exciting • Best opportunities to get funded • Highest potential for collaboration Breakout 3: a 3 minute report to share: • Specific projects, action items, time lines • Specific responsibilities

  8. Ground Rules • Be conscious of your airtime • Listen to understand • There are no right answers-all ideas are valid • Stick to the topic • Place it in the Parking Lot • Avoid the Rathole • Don’t attach to the outcome

  9. Brainstorming Tips • Defer judgment • Work for quantity • Piggy-back • Freewheel • Everyone participate

  10. Adopt a Beginner’s Mind In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few. --Shunryu Suzuki
