Contribute an Essay
Contributing an Essay to the Curriculum for the Bioregion Curriculum Collection
The Curriculum for the Bioregion curriculum collection features a collection of teaching-and-learning activities and descriptions of courses that engage students in sustainability studies and/or bioregional learning in the Puget Sound lowlands and/or the Columbia Plateau of Washington State. We also welcome essays on sustainability education, especially with an emphasis on placed-based and bioregional teaching and learning.
The information you provide below in this "Contribute an Essay" template will enable you to create a web page that introduces your essay and then provides it as an attachment. To see what this will look like, read an example: "Why Sustainability Education Needs Pedagogies of Reflection and Contemplation" (This example opens in a new window.) For now, your submission will become a private web page (viewable only by you, Curriculum for the Bioregion staff, and a small editorial board) that you can continue to revisit to edit or improve. If you and the Curriculum for the Bioregion Initiative staff agree that this essay should be featured in the Curriculum for the Bioregion Initiative collection, your submission will become a public web page in the collection.
If, before you get started, you have questions about whether your essay is appropriate to contribute, please communicate with Jean MacGregor.
To create the web page about your essay,
- Complete as much of the form as you are able to. Please note that you must, at the very least, enter your name, email address, and course title on this form.
- After you press the submit button at the bottom of the page, you will be given two further instructions:
- to create a SERC account if you do not already have one and
- to transfer the information provided on the form to a web page, which you may then edit. In order to do this, you must enter at least your name, email address, and course title on this form.
