Greenworks
Greenworks is a science, technology, and society (STS) research and development network that spans the globe. Participating schools and universities complete a teacher development program for implementing project-based learning, after which they can deploy the Greenworks project design curriculum. Students then learn how to develop quality environmental stewardship project proposals and select groups are funded to implement their ideas with their local communities.

Sustainable States
Sustainable States is a role-playing curriculum we are developing for teaching geosciences, governance, and sustainability. Students in this experience role-play as leaders of various nations, learning the constraints under which nations operate while addressing sustainability issues. Additionally, teachers who adopt the curriculum undergo teacher training so that they can implement game-based learning in other courses that they teach.
