Publisher Description
We are experiencing a rebirth in concern and commitment to the environment. Environmental education has been part of the science curriculum since the 1970s but today's renewal seems more pressing and vital in affecting attitudes and knowledge among our students. What is the best way to impact our students? How can we effectively increase their understanding of environmental issues over the long term? How can we ensure they will be responsible adults in regards to the environment? Experiences. Memorable experiences. Immersion experiences. Let's set aside individual lessons. Let's put away one-time environmental activities. What we need to do is connect our students with environmental issues in their community, state, nation, and world.
