Event Information

DESCRIPTION

Day 1 - June 8, 2023 - MWEE 101 and Field Work - Introduction to the Meaningful Watershed Educational Experience framework while following along with example MWEEs for each grade band - elementary, middle, and high school. Participants in this course will learn how a MWEE can support educational standards and goals and the roles taken by students and educators to make the program successful.  This course provides more in-depth instruction on how to plan your own MWEE or refine an existing MWEE. Emphasis is placed on planning and conducting outdoor investigations, student-led action, and incorporating student voices.  We will also unpack the CSIU Lending Library MWEE kit.

Day 2 - June 9, 2023 - Field workday - teachers/administrators experience field MWEE including invertebrate and water chemistry study.  MWEE 201 is the second in the series and builds off the information from MWEE 101. This course provides more in-depth instruction on how to plan your own MWEE or refine an existing MWEE.  By the end of the MWEE courses, participants will complete an Environmental Literacy Model (ELM) from the MWEE Planning Toolbox to describe their MWEE, connect it to standards and curriculum, and plan out the procedures used to guide student-directed investigations and action projects.
