Resources for Environmental Literacy

Resources for Environmental Literacy offers a fresh way to enhance your classroom productivity. The environmental context it provides can improve your students’ science learning even as learning the science improves their ability to deal with five real-world topics:

• Biodiversity
• Genetically modified crops
• Earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis
• Global climate change
• Radioactive waste

This resource does not encourage students to take a particular stand on these subjects, but builds skills in critical thinking and analytical reasoning about complex issues.
