Submit Regional Alliance Proposal Information

Submit approximately 1 page of text that lists your founding partners and their affiliations and presents the case for your ablity to move from your initial founding partners to a regional alliance that has the capacity to create an Earth Connections pathway linking geoscience learning and community service across grade levels. This should include a description of the local issue(s) that the pathway will address and why this is an important issue for the region. If we are funded, beginning regional alliances will receive support for local staff or intern to provide backbone support for the regional alliance.

File Type:

The system will attempt to determine the correct file type based on the name of the file you've selected. Choosing the correct file type here will override that.

File Name:

e.g. 'student_handout'
This will be the name of the downloaded file. By default the system will generate this based on the title you specified and the type of file. If you specify a name here it will over-ride the automatically generated name. This is generally only useful when uploading file of a type not recognized by the system (not in the list of file types above). In that situation choose File Type: Unknown Binary and include the appropriate suffix in the file name here. e.g. myfile.m3z Avoid spaces or special characters in the file names.

Reuse License

The creator/copyright holder must have agreed to allow distribution of this file through this site.

More Information about reuse and choosing a license

Distributing information on the web generally requires the permission of the copyright holder--usually the original creator. Providing the information we request here will help visitors to this site understand the ways in which they may (legally) use what they find.

If you created this file (and haven't signed away your copyright) then we'd encourage you to select the CC Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike option. You'll retain the copyright to your file and can do as you please with it in the future. Through this choice you are also explicitly allowing others to reuse that file as long as they give you attribution, and don't use it for commercial purposes.

If the file (or content within it) was created by others you'll need their permission. If it predates 1923 or was created by a U.S federal employee (as part of their job) it is likely in the public domain (and we can all do as we choose with it). The original author may also have explicitly stated how it may be reused (e.g. through a creative commons license). You can describe the licensing/reuse situation in the box above.

Without permission you should not upload the file. There are several options in this case:

You can contact the original author to get permission.
You can provide a link to (or a description of how to get) the original material rather than uploading it here.
You can find a substitute that isn't encumbered by copyright.
You can create a substitute yourself. Remember, ideas can't be copyrighted, only particular expressions of those ideas. Of course you'll want to give credit the original author.

The Stanford Copyright and Fair Use Center has more good information about copyright as it applies to academic settings.

The pathway map should show existing pathway elements and connections. It may in addition show planned additions or elements to strengthen programming. An approximately one-three page description should list your Regional Alliance leadership team and their affiliations and describe how you propose to grow and strengthen your existing programming to make it a more robust and complete Earth Connections pathway linking geoscience learning and community service across grade levels. Please describe what you know about where the opportunity or need lies, as well as what you know about the steps you would need to take. If you would like to request implementation funds please provide a brief description of how you would like to use these funds. For an example, see the San Bernardino Alliance Pathway Model (opens in a new window).
