The purpose of this class is to create a space for learners to learn and discuss conservation topics all over the world. Each week there will be a new conservation issue we discuss and we will go in-depth about everyone that is involved in the issue, the history of the conflict, the challenges of overcoming it, and overcoming it in general. We will discuss the relationships between people, ecosystems, and animals to uncover how these groups interact around one another, with conservation in mind. My learning style is fun and upbeat, and since conservation can be a heavy topic I want this class to be light and encouraging so students can feel empowered to make a difference in conservation for their own communities.
Metas de aprendizaje
Learners each week will learn about a pressing conservation topic, such as tiger-human conflict, deforestation in the Amazon, elephants and beehive fences, etc. For each class, learners will learn about the conservation topic, then as a group, we will discuss methods and outcomes of combatting these conservation conflicts. Learners will learn the problem-solving and critical thinking skills related to conservation and additionally will be encouraged to "think like a conservationist". The end goal is for students to feel encouraged to make change happen for the natural world!
