Description:
The Project Learning Tree module Exploring Environmental Issues: Focus on Forests uses forest-related examples to help students better understand the complexity of environmental issues. Students examine issues objectively, collect and analyze data, and become involved in decision-making experiences. They learn how to present arguments clearly and how citizens can play a role in forest-management decisions. To receive a copy of the guide, attend a PLT workshop.
