Are you a K-12 classroom teacher or field educator who has developed an innovative environmental education activity for your class? Would you be willing to share your thoughts about that activity with CLEARING? Things like:

• Special tips for teachers?
• What were your assessment strategies?
• What learning objectives did it achieve?
