What is DLESE?
A place to find quality teaching and learning resources about the Earth systemSupport and services for anyone interested in learning about the EarthA community-led effort, funded by NSF The geosciences node of the National Science Digital Library (NSDL)
![Page 5: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What does DLESE offer?
Web-based materials (lesson plans, computer and lab activities, data, visualizations, background material, portals)
Resources about the Earth are contributed and described by educators and scientists
Services to help users effectively create and use materials
Search by standards; find teaching tips and reviews; attend workshops and events
Interfaces and tools to allow exploration of Earth data sets
![Page 6: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Key design concepts
User input central to every stage of library development
Participatory design; community input, focus groups, workshops, Annual meeting
Community governance systemSteering committeeStanding committees

Discovering ResourcesUsing DLESE
Discovery only for resources related to Earth system science
Resources in DLESE are selected and cataloged by the ESS education community
Resources are described in metadata records which enhance discovery and comprehension of the items. DLESE holds
metadata records, not the actual web pages.
![Page 10: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Metadata includes………
Title, description Grade level assignment Resource type (Curriculum, activity, image, data)
Technical requirements Geospatial referencing Educational standards (science,
geography)
![Page 11: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Metadata framework
Currently, DLESE-IMSBased on IMS, DTD-validated, no datatyping
Transitioning to ADN for DLESE discovery
Schema-validated, strong data typingAdditional educational and geospatial fields
Transform to Dublin Core before ship to NSDL

Collection BuildingDLESE library policies
http://www.dlese.org/documents/policy/index.html• Scope: what the collection is about• Accession: what’s needed to be a collection• Deaccession: when a collection or resource “breaks”• IP and Privacy: how we treat the collection
DLESE Catalog System http://training.dlese.org
OAI software for collection harvesting http://www.dlese.org/Metadata/tool/index.htm
Broad Collection and Reviewed Collection http://www.dlese.org/Metadata
![Page 22: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Broad ReviewedCollection Collection
Relevant to Earth system educationCataloged with a minimum set of information for discoveryWide access to a range of resources
All the criteria of the Broad Collection plus:
• Scientifically accurate
• Importance• Pedagogically
effective• Well-documented• Ease of use• Power to inspire• Robust
![Page 23: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
How do resources get cataloged?
Web-based cataloging tool (DCS) at www.dlese.org -> public tool for general collectionUnique instances of cataloging tool for formal, thematic collections – managed at project site or hosted by DPCXML files created outside of web tool – XML template or database generated
![Page 24: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DLESE Catalog System
Web-based tool to catalog resources with the following:
• URL, title, description, resource type• Grade level, subject (and many more)
Tool can be downloaded for local cataloging use
Can share cataloged information with digital libraries or use at DLESE
![Page 25: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Build your own collection

Free-text and controlled vocabularies

What to Catalog?
Distinct resources – e.g topic, grade level, presented such that are usable outside of GLOBE contextTeacher’s Guide could result in 75-100 records, possibly more
Each chapterProtocolsLearning Activities
Which standards, at what degree of specificity?
![Page 28: The Digital Library for Earth System Science: Contributing resources and collections](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062221/568148bf550346895db5da82/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Things to consider…
DLESE Community Collection or discrete thematic collectionBroad or ReviewedCataloging and sharing mechanism –technical support staff required
Training available from DPC
Dynamic nature of collection – suggests need for ongoing access to metadata recordsDissemination in NSDL as well as DLESE
