Greenworks

Greenworks is a global environmental stewardship network we are developing to allow teachers and students from all over the world to learn and work together to solve urgent environmental challenges in their communities. Participating schools and universities complete a teacher training program for implementing project-based learning, after which they can deploy the project design curriculum. Students then learn how to develop quality project proposals and select groups are funded to implement their ideas.

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.

Global.Science Podcast

What is science education like around the world? Well, we’ll have to talk to science educators from all over the world to find out. In this half-hour podcast series, we chat with scientists, students, teachers, and informal educators to learn about the wild diversity of forms that science education can take and the remarkably diverse pathways science education careers have traveled. In the first season, we talk with scientists teaching and working in a variety of US college settings, museums, extreme environments, tropical islands, and remote villages.

Public Works

We also work on a variety of experimental public outreach programs. Most recently, we worked in the US Virgin Islands to develop astrotourism experiences and debuted one of these experiences at the Bordeaux Farmers’ Market in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands.
Future projects will continue developing these concepts in both the US Virgin Islands and Brazil and will feature a heavy artistic component.
