ST11 - Green STEM: A Model for Real-World Learning (Grade: K to 12)
Join the National Wildlife Federation’s NYC Eco-Schools for an exciting, hands-on program featuring educators who will demonstrate how to use GREEN STEM as a model for real-world learning – cleaning up oil spills, designing schoolyard gardens, detecting the impact of human activities on water quality, and designing and building hydroponic systems to investigate urban agriculture. Participants will leave with curriculum resources for use in and out of the classroom! Green STEM blends traditional STEM with environment-based education and emphasizes project-based learning and real world problem-solving.
