FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES: 1) PROJECT 2061 IS A LONG-TERM AAAS INITIATIVE TO HELP ALL AMERICANS BECOME LITERATE IN SCIENCE, MATHEMATICS, AND TECHNOLOGY. TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL, PROJECT 2061 CONDUCTS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPS TOOLS AND SERVICES THAT EDUCATORS, RESEARCHERS, AND POLICYMAKERS CAN USE TO MAKE CRITICAL AND LASTING IMPROVEMENTS IN THE NATIONS EDUCATION SYSTEM. THE PROJECTS AREAS OF EXPERTISE INCLUDE LEARNING GOALS AND CURRICULUM. THROUGH ITS SCIENCE FOR ALL AMERICANS, BENCHMARKS FOR SCIENCE LITERACY AND THE TWO-VOLUME ATLAS OF SCIENCE LITERACY, PROJECT 2061 PROVIDES A COHERENT SET OF K-12 LEARNING GOALS THAT CAN SERVE AS A FOUNDATION FOR STATE AND NATIONAL STANDARDS. PROJECT 2061 ALSO CONSULTS WIDELY WITH CURRICULUM RESEARCHERS AND DEVELOPERS. ASSESSMENT. PROJECT 2061 HAS DEVELOPED AN ONLINE BANK OF HIGH-QUALITY TEST ITEMS AND RELATED ASSESSMENT RESOURCES FOR USE IN MIDDLE AND EARLY HIGH SCHOOL SCIENCE (HTTP//ASSESSMENT.AAAS.ORG). EACH ITEM IS RIGOROUSLY SCREENED FOR ALIGNMENT TO NATIONAL STANDARDS AND IS SUITABLE FOR USE WITH A DIVERSE RANGE OF STUDENTS, INCLUDING ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS. THE ITEMS HAVE BEEN FIELD TESTED WITH NATIONAL SAMPLES OF STUDENTS TO GAUGE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF IMPORTANT SCIENCE IDEAS AND TO IDENTIFY COMMONLY HELD MISCONCEPTIONS. PROJECT 2061 PARTICIPATES IN A NUMBER OF NATIONAL ASSESSMENT EFFORTS AND CONSULTS ON A WIDE RANGE OF ASSESSMENT RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES. CURRICULUM AND TEACHER DEVELOPMENT. IMPLEMENTING THE VISION OF THE NEXT GENERATION SCIENCE STANDARDS (NGSS) REQUIRES CURRICULUM MATERIALS THAT INTEGRATE THE NGSS THREE DIMENSIONS OF LEARNING: CORE SCIENCE IDEAS, CROSSCUTTING CONCEPTS, AND SCIENCE PRACTICES. PROJECT 2061COLLABORATES WITH RESEARCHERS AT OTHER INSTITUTIONS TO DEVELOP AND TEST MODEL CURRICULUM UNITS THAT SHOWCASE THE NGSS VISION, ARE FEASIBLE TO IMPLEMENT IN PUBLIC SCHOOL CLASSROOMS, AND SHOW PROMISE IN PROMOTING SCIENCE LEARNING OF DIVERSE STUDENTS. IN 2015, NEARLY 70 EDUCATORS ATTENDED PROJECT 2061 WORKSHOPS TO LEARN MORE ABOUT DEVELOPING AND USING HIGH-QUALITY SCIENCE CURRICULA AND ASSESSMENTS, INCLUDING THOSE THAT ARE DESIGNED TO SUPPORT NGSS. NEW WEATHER@SCHOOL WEBSITE LAUNCHED IN 2015, PROJECT 20161 DEVELOPED WEATHERSCHOOL@AAAS (WEATHERSCHOOL.AAAS.ORG), WHICH USES REAL-WORLD DATA COLLECTED FROM AROUND THE GLOBE TO TEACH FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF WEATHER AND CLIMATE. IN A SERIES OF INTERACTIVE MODULES THAT INCLUDE GRAPHING TOOLS, DATA SETS, GUIDED ACTIVITIES, AND QUIZZES, MIDDLE- AND HIGH-SCHOOL STUDENTS CAN LEARN HOW MOVING AIR MASSES CAUSE DAY-TO-DAY TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS, HOW GEOGRAPHIC FACTORS SUCH AS ELEVATION ABOVE SEA LEVEL INFLUENCE TEMPERATURE, AND HOW THE MOVEMENT OF THE EARTH IN RELATION TO THE SUN AFFECTS TEMPERATURES OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR. 2) INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENT & SCIENCE DIPLOMACY AAAS PROMOTES THE USE OF SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING TO ADDRESS CHALLENGES THAT SPAN REGIONS AND CROSS DISCIPLINES. IT HAS FORGED NEW INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS, SUPPORTED RESEARCH COLLABORATIONS, AND ENCOURAGED INNOVATION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. AAAS SERVES AS A RESOURCE FOR SCIENCE DIPLOMACY TRAINING, AND PROVIDES A FORUM FOR FINDING NEW WAYS TO USE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING TO CONNECT NATIONS. AAASS INTERNATIONAL OFFICE DEVELOPS PARTNERSHIPS AND MAINTAINS RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN AAAS AND LEADING SCIENTIFIC ORGANIZATIONS WORLDWIDE, INCLUDING FOREIGN GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND NON-GOVERNMENTAL ACTORS. THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF SEVERAL PROGRAMS DEDICATED TO STRENGTHENING THE FOUNDATION FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY WORLDWIDE, AAASS INTERNATIONAL GOALS ARE TO ENHANCE INTERNATIONAL SCIENCE COOPERATION; BUILD SCIENTIFIC CAPACITY AND DEVELOPING HUMAN RESOURCES IN SUPPORT OF DEVELOPING COUNTRIES; PROMOTE SCIENCE DIPLOMACY; AND DEVELOP A MORE COHERENT AND COMPATIBLE GLOBAL SCIENCE ENTERPRISE. THE AAAS CENTER FOR SCIENCE DIPLOMACY IS GUIDED BY THE OVER-ARCHING GOAL OF USING SCIENCE TO BUILD BRIDGES BETWEEN COUNTRIES AND TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION AS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF FOREIGN POLICY BY RAISING THE PROFILE OF SCIENCE DIPLOMACY, CREATING A FORUM FOR THOUGHT AND ANALYSIS, AND INITIATING BILATERAL ACTIVITIES. IN 2015, THE CENTER HOSTED ITS FIRST ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON SCIENCE DIPLOMACY WITH OVER 200 PARTICIPANTS, INCLUDING REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE AND OTHER FEDERAL AGENCIES, UNESCO, THE WORLD ACADEMY OF SCIENCES, AND THE ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF CUBA. CENTER HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE: SCIENCE & DIPLOMACYA QUARTERLY PUBLICATION DEVOTED TO ISSUES AT THE NEXUS OF SCIENCE AND DIPLOMACYBRINGS EXPERT PERSPECTIVES IN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TO POLICY ANALYSTS, GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS, SCIENTISTS, AND EDUCATORS. IN 2015, THE JOURNAL PUBLISHED 21 ARTICLES PLUS EDITORIALS, PERSPECTIVES AND LETTERS. IT ATTRACTED MORE THAN 36,000 READERS, MORE THAN HALF OF WHOM WERE OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES. SCIENCE DIPLOMACY BOOT CAMP IN 2015, THE SECOND ANNUAL COURSE ON SCIENCE AND DIPLOMACY WAS HELD IN TRIESTE, ITALY, DRAWING TOGETHER PARTICIPANTS FROM 30 COUNTRIES AND PROVIDED SCIENCE DIPLOMACY TRAINING TO 56 RESEARCHERS AND ADMINISTRATORS. THE ATTENDEES LEARNED HOW SCIENCE DIPLOMACY CAN BE CARRIED OUT, HOW TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND POLICYMAKERS ABOUT RISKS, AND HOW SOME COUNTRIES ARE ALREADY USING SCIENCE DIPLOMACY. U.S. AND CUBAN COLLABORATIONS STEMMING FROM A 2014 AGREEMENT BETWEEN AAAS AND THE CUBAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCE TO PROMOTE SCIENTIFIC COOPERATION BETWEEN THEIR COUNTRIES, A U.S. DELEGATION OF RESEARCHERS, ACADEMICS, POLICYMAKERS, AND REPRESENTATIVES OF INDUSTRY MET WITH THEIR CUBAN COUNTERPARTS TO DISCUSS RESEARCH ADVANCES IN NEURODEGENERATIVE AND PSYCHIATRIC DISORDERS, BRAIN MAPPING TECHNIQUES, IMAGING AND TREATMENTS. AAAS IN 2015 ALSO BEGAN PLANNING TO LAUNCH A FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM FOR EARLY AND MIDCAREER SCIENTISTS FROM CUBA. THE CUBAN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH FELLOWS COULD BEGIN RESEARCH COLLABORATION IN THE UNITED STATES IN 2016, UNDER A PROGRAM ADMINISTERED BY THE AAAS CENTER FOR SCIENCE DIPLOMACY. 3) PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WITH SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ARE INTEGRAL TO EVERY ASPECT OF MODERN LIFE. DESPITE GENERALLY FAVORABLE PUBLIC ATTITUDES ABOUT SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND THEIR BENEFITS, HOWEVER, TENSIONS CONTINUE TO EMERGE AT THE INTERSECTION OF CORE HUMAN VALUES AND CERTAIN SCIENTIFIC FIELDS-FROM HUMAN EMBRYONIC STEM CELL AND GLOBAL CLIMATE-CHANGE RESEARCH, TO THE TEACHING OF EVOLUTION. INCREASINGLY, THIS TENSION HAS INTERFERED WITH SCIENTIFIC PROGRESS, THE QUALITY OF SCIENCE EDUCATION, AND THE BROADER ABILITY OF THE SCIENTIFIC ENTERPRISE TO FULLY SERVE THE NEEDS OF SOCIETY. AAAS BUILDS UPON AND MOVES BEYOND TRADITIONAL PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING EFFORTS, TOWARD MORE COMPREHENSIVE PUBLIC-DIALOGUE OPPORTUNITIES. THROUGH ITS CENTER FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT WITH SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, AAAS IS PROVIDING A VENUE FOR MULTI-DIRECTIONAL DIALOGUE ON MANY OF THE TOPICS THAT HAVE RECENTLY CAPTURED NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION, SUCH AS STEM CELL RESEARCH AND CLONING; EVOLUTION AND SCIENCE EDUCATION; SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND NATIONAL SECURITY; BIOTERRORISM; ENERGY POLICY; SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT; THE ENVIRONMENT; CLIMATE CHANGE; GENETIC MEDICINE; EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES; GENETICALLY MODIFIED FOODS; SPACE EXPLORATION; AND NANOTECHNOLOGY. AAAS IS PROVIDING TOOLS FOR SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS WHO WANT TO MORE EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATE ABOUT THEIR RESEARCH AND ITS IMPLICATIONS. MORE THAN 1,500 OF THEM WERE TRAINED AND GIVEN A CHANCE TO PRACTICE, DURING AAAS COMMUNICATING SCIENCE WORKSHOPS HELD IN 2015. WORKSHOP LEADERS TAUGHT PARTICIPANTS TO USE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATION TOOLS TO ENGAGE A VARIETY OF AUDIENCES, INCLUDING THE PUBLIC, REPORTERS, AND POLICYMAKERS. THEY THEN HAD OPPORTUNITIES TO REFINE THEIR MESSAGES AND BUILD CONFIDENCE THROUGH SMALL-GROUP DISCUSSIONS AND PRACTICE. THE COMMUNICATING SCIENCE PROGRAM HAS REACHED MORE THAN 6,700 SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS SINCE IT WAS FOUNDED IN 2008. ALSO IN 2015, IN A CONTINUATION OF THE WHAT WE KNOW CLIMATE-CHANGE COMMUNICATION SERIES LAUNCHED IN 2014 (WHATWEKNOW.AAAS.ORG), AAAS AND ITS PARTNERS ORGANIZED A SCIENTIFIC SYMPOSIUM MARKING THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST OFFICIAL WARNING ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE TO A U.S. PRESIDENT. MORE THAN A DOZEN PROMINENT SCIENTISTS DISCUSSED CLIMATE-CHANGE IMPACTS, INCLUDING HABITAT LOSS AND INCREASED EXTREME-WEATHER EVENTS, AND HOW TO BEST RESPOND TO, AND COMMUNICATE ABOUT THESE CHALLENGES. OTHER ONGOING ACTIVITIES INTENDED TO BOOST PUBLIC AWARENESS AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATURE OF SCIENCE AND THE WORK OF SCIENTISTS INCLUDE FAMILY SCIENCE DAYS, PLANNED IN COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL UNIVERSITIES, SCIENCE CENTERS AND OTHERS, DURING THE AAAS ANNUAL MEETING; MEET THE SCIENTIST EVENTS AT AAAS HEADQUARTERS; AND A GLOCAL STRATEGY TO PROMOTE LOCAL PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT REGARDING GLOBAL SCIENCE-RELATED ISSUES, BY WORKING WITH LOCAL OPINION LEADERS, POLICY-MAKERS, SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS, CLERGY, AND THE NEWS MEDIA.
