Abstract
Le projet américain Feederwatch a pour but de compter les oiseaux aux mangeoires des particuliers de novembre à avril de chaque année depuis 1988. Ce programme s’appuie sur l’outil statistique pour dégager des tendances sur plusieurs années de l’évolution des populations et de leurs aires de distribution, outil nécessité par l’envergure de l’effort de recherche qui concerne chaque année près de 16 000 profanes. C’est un cas de vulgarisation scientifique réussie, avec une participation des profanes dans un projet scientifique authentique. Cet article décrit et discute les mécanismes de codage et de traitement statistiques qui assurent à chaque étape l’alignement entre scientifiques et profanes, dans ce que le Laboratoire d’Ornithologie de Cornell, organisateur du projet, appelle une initiative de « science citoyenne ».<br>Feederwatch program is a project dedicated to counting birds at feeders in the backyard of participants from November to April, since 1988. This program uses statistical means to calculate trends in the evolution of bird populations and areas of distribution, in order to cope, each year, with the huge cover of the program (North American continent) and consequently the huge number of lay people involved (16 000 in 2003). This case documents a successful program in « public understanding of science » oriented toward real science. This paper describes and discuss the various mechanisms aligning scientists and lay people, at each stage of the process of data collecting and processing, in what the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology calls an example of « citizen science ».

    PALS - Performance Assessment Links in Science

    1999-01
    PALS is an on-line, standards-based, continually updated resource bank of science performance assessment tasks indexed via the National Science Education Standards (NSES) and various other standards frameworks. The tasks, collected from numerous sources, include student directions and response forms, administration procedures, scoring rubrics, examples of student work, and technical quality data calculated from field testing. On-line rater training packets have also been created for some tasks. PALS is supported by a grant from the Elementary, Secondary, and Informal Education (ESIE) Division (Grant #: ESI-9730651) of the National Science Foundation.

    NASA Earth Observatory: Biomes (title provided or enhanced by cataloger)

    This National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website allows students to investigate biomes and then test their knowledge by completing missions. The site provides basic data about each biome such as temperature, precipitation, vegetation, location, description and links. Biomes discussed include coniferous forest, temperate deciduous forest, desert, grassland, rainforest, shrubland and tundra. The two missions (available at beginner and advanced levels) are designed to teach students about the relationship between temperature and precipitation and plants in biomes. A teacher resource guide provides details about goals, expected outcomes, extension ideas, and hands-on activities. Educational levels: High school, Intermediate elementary, Middle school, Primary elementary
