definition: The WorldWatcher Project is dedicated to the improvement of Earth and environmental science education through the use of data visualization and analysis tools to support inquiry-based pedagogy. Through an integrated program of research and development, the WorldWatcher Project is advancing our understanding of learning in the Earth and environmental sciences, design of curriculum and educational software, and teacher professional development. Equally important, the WorldWatcher Project is creating useful and useable products for students and teachers at levels ranging from middle school through college.
