Come learn from the Youth Water Leadership Program a few tips and tricks to creating student-centered authentic place-based learning opportunities for secondary students. Through interactive activities and group discussions we will explore nationally proven tools (Earth Force, Roots and Shoots, National Geographic Education) that provide processes for how to get started with student lead community action projects. Get an overview and access to free tools to use to incorporate youth voice, student-driven inquiry, democratic decision-making, and place-based authentic problem-solving into classrooms preparing students for life-long environmental stewardship, civic engagement, and collaborative action. Gain a better understanding of how to engage students in learning that makes a difference, for students and communities.

All mini-workshops will take place online, via Zoom (unless otherwise noted). Participants will be sent links to the Zoom room and connection info will be posted below prior to the session start.
