Education & Since 1988, the Society has provided grants to support improved geography education Children's through its Education Foundation, which has a corpus valued at approximately $93 5 Programs million Over the past fourteen years, the Foundation's $50+ million grantmaking

campaign to combat geographic illiteracy in schools has been grounded in a national network of nonprofit grantees and "geographic alhances'~-- university-based partnerships between K-12 teachers and professors established by the Society

In 2002, the Education Foundation made over $3 5 million in grants to support its mission to "prepare children to embrace a diverse world, succeed in a global economy, and steward the planet's resources " In the same year, NGS sponsored training and other activities conducted by the "geographic alliances" or other nonprofit partners in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and Canada

The Foundation's grants to the "geographic alliances" support a volunteer network of teachers committed to restoring geography to the curriculum and improving geography education in schools by providing professional development via summer training institutes, regularly convening local teachers, disseminating information and teaching materials, and hosting state-specific education Web sites Work in 2002 engaged approximately 100 universities and community colleges In order to help institutionalize its work at the state level, the Society has created 23 restricted funds to provide ongoing, targeted grant support to individual states, primarily by funding the work of the "geographic alliances" from state fund payouts National Geographic maintains an open offer to match up to $500,000 in donations toward the creation of new state endowments

The Foundation's grants directly to 37 individual teachers working in the classroom supported development of innovative curricula and hands-on education initiatives, such as field trips

The Foundation's grants to non-university partners supported such programs as The JASON Project, a science education initiative delivering geographic content through curriculum, teacher training, and an annual national teleconference for students, National Marine Sanctuary field studies in the Channel Islands (CA) and the Florida Keys (FL) offering teams of urban students and teachers conservation and ocean awareness educational activities, and development of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation's "Chesapeake Classrooms" project providing environmental and geographic curriculum, professional development for teachers, and local field trips for students

In addition to making grants to nonprofit educational institutions, the Society conducted a number of other programs in 2002 through its Foundation staff During the year, National Geographic sponsored an annual public awareness campaign on the theme of outdoor recreation entitled, "Geography Action' Public Lands " The program included training for 32 educators, each charged with organizing outreach in their respective state, and the development of a Website including lesson plans and activities for schools and communities, reaching 1 5 million schoolchildren The initiative's Wcbsite received an average of 50,000 hits per month and an "American Frontiers




Public Lands Journey" across the U S from Canada to Mexico solely on publicly-owned lands generated coverage from more than 20 local newspapers and radio stations, national news coverage included five segments on the "National Geographic Today" show reaching more than 15 million households and stories in the Washington Times, US Newswire, the Chicago Tribune, as well as reporting by AP, NBC, and CBS news More than 150,000 maps of U S public lands were distributed nationally as a part of the campaign

Additionally, Foundation staff worked with the Asia Society to help develop a definitive on-line resource for Asian studies Work on the design of a Website offering resources for teachers and schools was accompanied by a national workshop for 45 teachers

In 2002, the Foundation's education technology program helped build the Chesapeake Classrooms Community, an online collaborative environment, to support teacher's work via a library that houses resources such as Websites, documents, and references to pertinent books and articles, to allow teachers to form small groups to pursue issues, to offer an interactive calendar with upcoming events, and to create personalized space to store, share and receive feedback on their work, as well as save resources useful to their teaching

The Education Foundation also continued to contribute to National Geographtc Society's own award-winning education Website, nationalgeographic com/education, which offers a host of free classroom lessons, information, interactive computer-based educational activities, a printable atlas, and online applications the Education Foundation's grantmaking programs

In 1994, the Society convened constituents and assisted in the writing and publication of the national, voluntary geography education standards These standards continue to be used as a reference in virtually every state for developing academic standards for geography instruction and instruments for evaluating student performance in the subject area

Geography The National Geographic Bee is a nationwide contest for schools with grades four Competitions through eight With a first-place prize of a $25,000 college scholarship-- and other

prizes in additional scholarships, cash, and classroom materials-- the Bee is designed to encourage the teaching and study of geography Over 16,000 schools and nearly five million students from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, U S territories, and Department of Defense Dependents Schools take part in the Bee annually

The National Geographic World Championship is a biennial competition involving teams of students, 16 years of age or younger, representing their country and competing in a test of geographic knowledge The fifth Olympiad, held in 2001 at the Chan Centre on the campus of the University of British Columbia, comprised teams from twelve countries Argentina, Australia, Canada, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Hungary, Romania, Russia.

National Geographic Society works with them in advising them on the organization of such a program and providing geographical questions The sixth international competition was held in 2003 with six additional countries participating Bulgaria, India, Mexico, Nigeria, Poland & Portugal

The National Geographic Society Competition staff has also worked with the Girl Scouts of the USA In July 2001, ten senior scouts were chosen to spend a week in D C with writers, editors and photographers at National Geographic Society During the summer of 2002, ten senior scouts were chosen to spend a week in South Carolina with a National Geographic Society female scientist grantee

Research & The Committee for Research and Exploration has awarded more than 7500 grants since Conservation 1890, totaling more than 100 million dollars Funds for scientific research have been Trust Grants & given to world-renowned scientists Jacques Cousteau, Jane Goodall, Sylvia Earle, Allocations Louis Leakey, and numerous others The Committee supported extraordinary research

in areas from archaeology to zoology, awarding 225 grants in 2002 Joyce Poole's "Savanna elephants vocalization project" constituted the first time that the acoustic and behavioral repertoire of a species is put into a globally accessible electronic multimedia format, Nathalie Cabrol's investigation of the highest lake on Earth located at the summit of the Licancabur volcano in the Atacama desert, Chile -- with emphasis on understanding what strategies life uses to survive under the unique stress conditions provided by high altitude, high-UV, low temperature, and isolation, Bill Saturno's discovery of perhaps the earliest (ca A D 100) well preserved murals yet discovered in the Maya area could make one of the most important contributions to our understanding of early history of Maya art and civilization in recent years, and, Zeb Hogan's "Endangered Mekong fish research and conservation project" used tagging and genetics research to help determine the migratory patterns, habitat use, and exploitation rates of giant catfish and giant carp of the Mekong River These scientists' contributions epitomize two goals of the Committee for Research and Exploration first-rate scholarship and the communication of research findings to the public
