.. figure:: _static/oggm.gif :align: right :width: 80% | Welcome to OGGM-Edu! ==================== OGGM-Edu is an educational website about glaciers. Our main goal is to **provide tools and materials for instructors** who want to teach about glaciers at school, in workshops or at the university. For a general introduction and an overview, visit this recent `EGU cryoblog post `_! **OGGM-Edu has four independent and complementary components**: 1. :ref:`title_apps`, to illustrate glaciological processes with the help of interactive graphics on the web. The targeted audience is very broad, from school children to adults, with or without scientific background. 2. :ref:`title_graphics`, open access images and graphics that can be used for lectures or presentations. 3. :ref:`title_notebooks`, providing guidance to run and develop simple modelling experiments. The targeted audience are students at the undergrad or graduate level with some programming experience, or under the supervision of an instructor who can show them how to run the experiments. 4. :ref:`title_tuto`, for current and future users of the Open Global Glacier Model. These notebooks are targeting graduate students or scientists aiming to learn how the model works. OGGM-Edu focuses on interactive content and numerical glacier experiments. We do not provide resources about fundamentals in glaciology, climate science, or numerical methods: for more traditional textbook material, refer to :ref:`other_resources`, which OGGM-Edu intends to complement. .. _title_apps: Interactive apps ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ These interactive apps can be run on any computer with an internet connection. * :doc:`gallery` * :doc:`explorer` * :doc:`simulator` * :doc:`mb_simulator` * :doc:`alps_future` .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :hidden: :caption: Interactive apps gallery.rst explorer.rst simulator.rst mb_simulator.rst alps_future.rst .. _title_graphics: Graphics ^^^^^^^^ Open access images and graphics that can be used for lectures or presentations. * :doc:`glacier_basics` * :doc:`glacier_debriscovered` * :doc:`glacier_lowpass` .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :hidden: :caption: Graphics glacier_basics.rst glacier_debriscovered.rst glacier_lowpass.rst .. _title_notebooks: Interactive Notebooks ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Collection of notebooks with simple experiments explaining one or more glaciological concepts. The :ref:`api` provides an intuitive and expressive interface to the `OGGM model `_, highly simplifying the development of glacier evolution experiments. Read our :ref:`notebooks_howto` first if you are new to these things. |badge_edu_notebooks| .. admonition:: New! Run your class on classroom.oggm.org Since 2021, OGGM-Edu offers a new service for instructors: `classroom.oggm.org `_ is a JupyterHub server where you and your students can use OGGM-Edu without the burden of installing anything. See `this blog post `_ for an introduction. |badge_classroom_tutos| .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :hidden: :caption: Interactive Notebooks notebooks_howto.rst api.rst OGGM-Edu notebooks .. _title_tuto: OGGM tutorials ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ These are more advanced notebooks, for those who want to use the OGGM model for research. |badge_tutorial_notebooks| .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 1 :hidden: :caption: OGGM tutorials OGGM tutorials For instructors and teachers ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Thanks for considering OGGM-Edu for your classes! We've gathered some recommendations and guidelines here. .. admonition:: New! Teaching materials for glaciology labs now available.
