- *Members of the SEEK Exec proposed establishing a working group to design and implement the distributed graduate seminar.
- *The course should be held at 3-4 of the SEEK institutions.
- **Proposed institutions include UC Davis, UCSB, KU and UNM.
- **Current point people
- ***Bertram and Shawn, UC Davis
- ***Mark Schildhauer, UC SB
- ***Samantha Romanello and Deana Pennington, UNM
- ***James Beach?!?!, KU
- *Class format was discussed.
- **Parrallel seminars that are coordinated enough to meet and overlap and
- **Both computer science classes and ecology classes
- **Each class could answer a regional biological/ecological question; data needed about 4 to 5 datasets which could then be used to synthesized across regions to answer the same biological/ecological question at a national scale
- *KEY ISSUES
- **Defining an interesting project from the ecology side that would also have an interesting enough computer science component.
- *** suggestions included
- **** Comparing and contrasting and knowledge representation of key ecological/biological issues
- ****Have students work on creating real application workflows
- **Identifying individuals from both the computer science and biology/ecology side to assist in teaching the course
- **students should be able to get a publishable paper from class participation
- **make sure the credit hours reflect the amount of outside class work
- **Identify data that would be available – grassland biodiversity --
