Cheryl L. B. Manning; Nicole D. LaDue – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2025
The geological sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (geo-STEM) have the capacity to investigate and address geological and environmental challenges. Many of these challenges (e.g., pollution, flooding, and slope failure) unjustly impact lower socio-economic communities in urban and rural settings where there is limited access to…

Haak, David C.; Salom, Scott; Barney, Jacob N.; Schenk, Todd; Lakoba, Vasiliy T.; Brooks, Rachel K.; Fletcher, Rebecca A.; Foley, Jeremiah R.; Heminger, Ariel; Maynard, Lauren D.; McElmurray, Philip; Seo, Hye-Jeong; Sharma, Gourav – Environmental Education Research, 2022
Many graduate training programs in global change recognize the importance of policy and appreciate the complex, multi-stakeholder nature of policymaking in practice. However, few engage directly with diverse stakeholders, an important goal in transformational education, through traditional curricula. We present the results following analysis of a…

Kosal, Erica F. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2004
This paper presents a case where students can learn about aquatic communities. In this case, students speculate on what may have caused a major fish kill in an estuary in North Carolina. In the process, they explore how land runoff and excess nutrients affect aquatic communities. They also learn about the complex life cycle of the dinoflagellate…
