AB: DLESE Data Services will work, in coordination with the other DLESE Core Service activities, toward DLESE's mission 'To improve the quality, quantity, and efficiency of teaching and learning about the Earth system' by facilitating the development and effective use of educational materials that make use of Earth system science datasets and data access and analysis tools. The currently planned major activities of DLESE Data Services are 1. To conduct a needs assessment for data and data analysis tools in the educational community 2. To identify existing educational modules utilizing data and data access and analysis tools for cataloging in DLESE 3. To organize and run DLESE Data Services Workshops in which we will bring together a wide range of Earth science data providers, developers of data access and analysis/exploration tools, with curriculum developers and educators to improve the use of Earth science data in education. Each of these activities and the benefits and opportunities they make available to the community will be described in more detail during the presentation.
