Environmental Impacts Analysis Techniques for Secondary Schools

该项目将为30名初中和高中教师提供在职培训。该项目假设在安大略湖沿岸对环境敏感的湿地上创建一个环境中心。从该项目中收集的数据将有助于规划拟议中的新环境中心的项目。学员将参加从1987年7月开始的为期五周的暑期课程。在该计划的这一部分，参与者将学习如何评估开发项目的环境后果。随后，在下一学年将举办一系列每月五期的课程工作坊，利用暑期经验为参与学校设计合适的课程单元。一次暑期课程和五次课程讲习班的循环将在下一年与新的、不同的教师群体一起重复。暑期研修班期间，各学校将被要求推荐学生“同事”与老师一起进行田野采集和鉴定项目。

This project will deliver in-service training to 30 junior and senior high school teachers. The project hypothesizes the creation of an environmental center in an environmentally-sensitve wetland along Lake Ontario. The data gleaned from the project will aid in planning programs for a proposed new environmental center. Participants will attend a five-week summer course beginning in July of 1987. During this segment of the program, participants will learn how to evaluate the environmental consequences of the development. Subsequently, a series of five monthly curricular workshops during the following academic year will use the summer experience to create suitable curricular modules for the participating schools. The cycle of a summer course and five curricular workshops will be repeated the following year with a new and different group of teachers. During the summer institute, each school will be asked to recommend student "colleagues" to work with teacher in field collection and identification projects.
