CLIMATE EDUCATION RESOURCES

LEEF is working in partnership with the Southeastern Environmental Education Alliance to launch a new eeCourse, Climate Science and Communications.  We are recruiting formal educators from across the southeast to participate in a self-paced online pilot of our eeCourse from June 17-July 29.  Selected participants will receive a $75 stipend upon completion of the pilot and feedback survey.  Priority will be given to educators located in disadvantaged school districts as identified by the EPA. You will be notified by March 31st if you are selected to participate.   

Deadline for registration is March 25th: https://forms.gle/93QUg4esYFZcGuyP7

LEEF received 2 years of funding in partnership with NOAA B-WET and Florida Gulf Coast University to create a statewide Climate and Watershed Education Council and bring digital climate education resources to Florida educators.  The Council currently includes 18 members from school districts, non-profits, universities and government resiliency offices.  Together we are preparing to launch this resource in Winter 2023-24!
