The aim of this project is to produce a web-based set of environmental history teaching guides for middle and high school teachers. The guides would draw on the works of historians, writers, and scientists, in addition to original documents, maps, and other materials to help teachers improve their own understanding of American environmental history and to provide them teaching strategies and resources they can use with their students. The guides would be developed and reviewed by teachers and scholars in history, science, and economics. The eighteen-month project will begin May 2003, and conclude December 31, 2004. |
