Launching Environmental Literacy Lessons Using Culturally Relevant Phenomena for Secondary Science Educators 08/02/2022 - 08/05/2022
9:00 am - 2:00 pm
This virtual professional learning series will focus on environmental literacy and climate science and change. We will also connect the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Career Technical Education to the California Environmental Principles and Concepts (EP&Cs). We further aim to connect students with culturally relevant local phenomena to engage in science. Come and learn from experts in the field and collaborate with fellow educators to develop instructional resources for your classroom.
The project will launch with a summer week of learning. There will be ongoing opportunities for collaboration and support during the school year. As well as a showcase of student learning.
A stipend of $1,000 will be available to teachers who participate in all of the professional learning sessions and the activities in between. Substitute costs will be reimbursed. Required books and materials will be provided.
