Dear Educators,
The GEODE Initiative at Northwestern University is developing a new environmental
science unit designed to help teachers tie local issues into their curriculum. The unit is
intended to supplement an environmental science curriculum we have developed at
Northwestern called Investigations in Environmental Science, which is being published by
It’s About Time.
We would like the unit to include as many “real-world” cases of how teachers like you have
connected environmental issues to the community. These could be activities that you have
done within the classroom, within the community, using technology, or on scant resources.
It is our aim to give all teachers, teaching in a wide variety of settings, examples they can
use with their own students.
Teachers who submit cases will be credited for their contributions when the unit is
published and will have opportunities to submit pictures and other artifacts as well.
If you have an example you would like to submit please send me a brief email about what
you did and how I may contact you.
Please also feel free to take a look at the curriculum’s website or email me with any
questions:
