摘要

该研究项目旨在整合地理学、空间分析、环境研究和社会心理学,以了解莫哈韦沙漠地区太阳能开发的冲突。第二个目标是为参与的本科生研究人员提供使用多学科工具的深度学习体验。该项目于2019年至2021年在南加州大学本科生研究助理计划(URAP)下进行。学生们进行了场地适宜性分析、调查研究、访谈和实地研究。研究结果结合了空间分析、态度调查、绘图和对学生学习经历的详细描述。这个项目的一个重要结论是发现了州和国家层面对太阳能发展的广泛支持与地方层面的怀疑之间的差异。学生研究人员继续参加多次会议并获得奖项,并基于这个项目,两人都决定参加环境研究和科学的研究生院。对进一步研究的建议包括对太阳能发展的态度的插值,进行人口代表性调查和参与性绘图。这种方法可以作为其他机构的教学策略,因为学生们越来越渴望从自然科学和社会科学的角度解决环境问题。

A Multi-Disciplinary Undergraduate Pedagogical Experience Looking at Attitudes Towards Solar Development in the Mojave Desert
This research project aimed to integrate geography, spatial analysis, environmental studies, and social psychology to understand conflicts over solar development in the Mojave Desert region. A second objective was to empower the participating undergraduate student researchers with a deep-learning experience using multidisciplinary tools. This project ran from 2019 to 2021 under the Undergraduate Research Associates Program (URAP) at the University of Southern California. The students conducted site suitability analysis, survey research, interviews, and field studies. Results combined spatial analysis, attitudinal surveys, mapping, and detailed accounts of the students’ learning experiences. An important conclusion of this project was the discovery of a discrepancy between broad support for solar development at the state and national level, and a suspicion at the local level The student researchers went on to present multiple conferences and receive awards, and based on this project, both decided to attend graduate school in environmental studies and sciences. Recommendations for further research include interpolation of attitudes toward solar development, conducting a demographically representative survey, and participatory mapping. This approach can serve as a pedagogical strategy for other institutions, as students are increasingly eager to address environmental problem solving from the perspective of both the natural and social sciences.
