Description
Join us in Bottineau for an opportunity to experience current land management issues in North Dakota. While exploring the issues and identifying solutions, participants will receive real world, user friendly and classroom ready instruction from specially trained Food, Land and People facilitators, resource professionals, and scientists. Participants transfer the institute's field studies to practical classroom applications. Participants will experience hands-on, minds-on learning through a balance of presentations, discussions, activities, field tours, and environmental investigations.
Syllabus, Objectives, and Outcomes
- Provide educators with current agricultural professional development training by National Center for Agriculture Literacy Curriculum specialists to understand larger concepts such as ecosystem balance, diversity, sustainability, watersheds and community.
- Use resources available through FLP, AITC, ND Dept. of Ag with current educational concepts to help teachers with group activities, provide for individual differences, and learning styles and evaluate student’s learning.
- Provide teachers with resources, lessons and classroom ready activities that they will be able to integrate into the current curriculum.
