Research/Pesquisa
Through collaboration among faculty and students, we aim to broaden our comparative understanding of environmental systems in Brazil and the U.S.
Pedagogy/Ensino
Good pedagogy begins with an understanding of how people learn. This project establishes a faculty to faculty network with the goal of providing a rich resource of innovative, inquiry-based environmental field experiences and course materials.
Culture/Cultura
Through student and faculty exchanges and pedagogical interactions, we provide opportunities to discuss the ideas two cultures bring to solving environmental issues, probing the two cultures' historical, economic, political, and cultural similarities and also their different approaches to creating sustainable solutions to environmental problems.
People/Pessoas
The collaboration is built through student to student, faculty to faculty, and faculty to student interactions, formalized by the FIPSE-CAPES funded ACM-Brazil student exchange program and the ACM Faculty Collaborative Event.
Discussions/Fórum
