STEELS in Action at Pymatuning: Field Investigations and Eco Career Explorations Educator Workshop
|
|
Join us for a full day, hands-on workshop at
Pymatuning State Park designed to help K–12 formal and nonformal educators
strengthen their STEELS instruction and plan and facilitate Meaningful
Watershed Educational Experiences (MWEEs). Participants will explore local
environmental issues through place based investigations, including
macroinvertebrate sampling, data collection, and activities led by local
environmental experts and green career professionals.
Throughout
the day, educators will learn strategies aligned to the PA STEELS Standards and
PA Career Ready Benchmarks and will generate ideas for student led
environmental action projects that respond to authentic community needs. By the
end of the workshop, participants will leave with practical tools, confidence,
and ready to use resources for implementing high quality environmental learning
experiences. Those who complete the optional MWEE 101 online module will also
earn certification as Pennsylvania MWEE Ambassadors.
