주당 1-2시간. The time that students spend on this class will vary widely depending on your student. A student likely could complete the week's tasks in an hour or two, but would absolutely have the freedom to spend several hours a week on it if they would like. Students are always welcome to simplify or expand the project as needed.학습 평가

If you're anything like me, zoos are some of the best places on earth! I love them so much that I have worked at aquariums, wildlife sanctuaries, and nature museums. Have you ever wanted to design a zoo (or aquarium or wildlife sanctuary) with all your favorite animals? Now is your chance! Whether you want an desert-themed zoo, a zoo with big cats, or a bird-only zoo, it's your job to design a zoo that both animals and guests will love. Check out the syllabus to learn more about what your learner will achieve in each lesson: from choosing animals to making a schedule for their keepers to designing enrichment activities, we will explore all the nitty-gritty that make an experience with animals so exciting. I have done this unit live with students and it is so fun to see their creativity run wild! Will you make a zoo entirely full of frogs? Will animals roam free throughout the zoo (depends on the animals, of course!)? Will you have snow machines all over for an Arctic-themed zoo? I can't wait to see what you come up with! This class is structured a little differently than my other self-paced classes and relies heavily on the participation of the learner. The learner has a high degree of independence (with lots of support) and freedom to take the project in a direction that interests them. Each lesson includes a short pre-recorded video of me discussing the lesson's plan and instructions. Students will share progress and discuss plans in our classroom. We will have weekly check-ins where students are encouraged to share their progress (through words, pictures, or videos), and discuss plans. Various posts will encourage discussion, critical thinking, and step-by-step planning for each week's task. I will be providing thorough feedback at every step of the process. I am happy to provide constructive feedback and suggestions, but also to help a student consider what they need to consider in the design of their zoo. I encourage every student to take this project in their own direction with their own creativity! I value my students' experience and want it to be a fun and fruitful course. Please email me with any questions about this exciting course!
학습 목표
Students will practice creativity, problem-solving skills, and innovative thinking by creating a zoo.

학부모 가이드
I am a firm advocate for well-run zoos and aquariums (which I consider to mean certified by the Association for Zoos and Aquariums in the US and similar groups elsewhere). That said, I encourage students to think about the implications of animal captivity for themselves. Students should feel comfortable in their own opinions and I welcome their independent thoughts. It is absolutely fine if they disagree with me on the merits of zoos and are welcome to pursue a model of a wildlife refuge or sanctuary. Regardless of model, all students will need to thoroughly consider animal welfare (i.e. we aren't going to put a tiger and some rabbits and some penguins all in a 10x10 exhibit).
