Description: BEETLES (Better Environmental Education, Teaching, Learning & Expertise Sharing) is devoted to creating: (1) versatile environmental education professional learning materials; (2) student activities for use in the field; (3) a collaborative, resource-sharing network of environmental educators; and (4) additional resources for field instructors, leaders, and classroom teachers. All BEETLES resources are based on current research and understandings about how people learn, and tested by dozens of programs in diverse settings all over the country (and beyond). Although BEETLES materials have been designed for residential outdoor science schools, they?ve been snatched up and used successfully in a wide variety of outdoor science education settings.
