2. Ten workshops uniting students from the UK and Japan in collaborative scientific endeavour Devised by Dr. Eric Albone Clifton Scientific Trust

3. The Ten Science Teams Space Science Earthquake Engineering Science in Archaeology Science Through Theatre Chemistry: Core Shell Particles Environment: Sustainable Development Volcano Science Wildlife Conservation Aeronautics Ethics in Medicine

4. Science, Creativity and the Young Mind Workshop Space Science Team Department of Earth Sciences University of Bristol July 2001

5. A comparative study of Martian and terrestrial vulcanology through a new Distance Learning Project Students from Japan, working with students from the United Kingdom, at the University of Bristol, with daily tutorial support from NASA scientist, Joe Kolecki, in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, by email and video-conferencing.

6. A New ICT Learning Model Devised by Lawrence Williams The Holy Cross School

7. A New ICT Learning Model The purpose of the Space Science Workshop was to explore, in practice, a new general model for learning. The aim was to use a range of ICT tools interactively:  The Internet as a library of resource materials  Video-conferencing as a tool for international distance learning (between the USA and the UK)  Email for planning and daily communication  Email attachments (JPEG images)  A range of ICT tools to support learning ( DTP, WP, graphics, programs, spreadsheets, video-files, multi-media)  The Internet, again, for publication of the outcomes

8. The Space Science Team’s task as set by NASA scientist, Joe Kolecki The students were asked to explore two opposing scientific theories about the formation of volcanoes on Mars : 1.Were volcanoes on Mars caused by a massive meteor impact? Or 2. Were volcanoes caused by early plate tectonic activity?

9. The areas to be explored by the students: Olympus Mons Three other volcanoes – “hot spots” ?

10. Participants: Akira Nakamura (Japan) Ryo Nakamura (Japan) Toshiyuki Itai (Japan) Lee Parsons (UK) Rania Kashi (UK) Adriano Silva (UK)

16. Adriano How volcanoes form on Earth e.g. plate tectonics How to calculate slope angles, diameters and height from satellite photos Identify features from satellite pictures which might suggest volcanic processes in the past e.g. lava flows Olympus Mons - theory of meteor impact

17. Tarsis Basin

18. Olympus Mons

20. Akiro How volcanoes form Chemical relationships, and the viscosity of silicon How to read satellite pictures of lava flows and caldera Formation of caldera Meteor impacts on Mars

24. Toshiyuki Plate tectonics on Earth Volcanic eruptions on Earth and Mars Meteor impact on Mars Volcanic slopes on Earth (Hawaii) and Mars (Olympus) Comparison between Mount Fuji and Hawaii

26. Ryo Impact size of craters Shock waves through Mars Age of Olympus Comparing volcanoes on Earth and Mars

28. Lee How Olympus Mons was formed The theory of how Mariner’s Valley was formed The theory of how plate tectonics formed on Mars in the past

31. Olympus Mons is much bigger than Hawaii!!! Energy of the impact was of the magnitude of 10 25 J

32. Rania Meteor theory for volcano formation on Mars Investigative methods used in science Mathematical evidence to prove/disprove theory Working effectively as a group New communication skills, across language barriers

44. Email to Joe Hi Joe, Rania here, I'd like to tell you how immensely grateful I am to you and your team. You have been truly inspirational in your motivation and encouragement. This workshop has given me an idea of what higher education and a career in science would be like, and I will go back to school full of anticipation of such a path. I am now very excited about what the future holds and what I, and my new friends in Bristol, can go on to achieve. I hope to keep in touch with you and will most definitely research further into this field. Many thanks once again. Rania Kashi

45. ICT tools actually used The Internet to find NASA images and other information from their web sites Word-processing of the final Reports for the web sites Spreadsheets for calculations Email and attachments for the daily exchange of information with Cleveland Video-conferencing at ISDN 2 for the daily conferences, and ISDN 6 for the final presentations to NASA Digital cameras, still and movie, to record the Workshop CD writer to prepare the final Workshop presentation to the University PowerPoint and graphics for the actual presentation The Internet, again, for the publication of the documentation of the whole event

46. The future Dear Lawrence, Your kind words, and the transformation we all saw in the members of our group says everything! We are proud to have been asked to join forces with you. All of you at Bristol have achieved a landmark in education! May its effects be felt everywhere!! Yes to further involvement with you - by all means, YES!!! Joe NASA Glenn Learning Technologies Project Cleveland Ohio

47. Real World Science: A Comparison of the Volcanoes on Earth with the Volcanoes on Mars Joe Kolecki Japan 2001 Science, Creativity and the Young Mind Workshop, Bristol University, Bristol, UK July 23-26, 2001 Coming soon! A separate site is being prepared to summarize the events surrounding this series of connections. A link from this page will take you to the details upon its completion. Videoconferences with the UK
