Climate clinics are full-day workshops that help non-formal and formal educators learn the science of climate change and strategies for teaching climate change in nature centers, schools, and communities. The focus is on issues and resources in the Chicago Wilderness region (which includes northeastern Illinois, northwestern Indiana and southeastern Wisconsin).
Our next workshop:
Teaching Climate: Understanding climate change science, impacts, and action.
Saturdays, October 3, 10, 17 & 24 & November 7, 2020 with a follow-up gathering in the Spring 10:00 – 11:30 am online via zoom
FREE!
Want to incorporate climate science into your curriculum? Searching for materials and resources to teach climate science?
