Subject: Re: Two more GSA sessions to consider
Date: July 14, 2015 9:45:23 AM EDT
T68. Climate Literacy:
Formal and Informal Education and Outreach Activities and Research and
Evaluation Measures of Success.
The session will focus
on both activities (formal education, informal education, outreach activities,
and partnerships beyond the sciences) and research (education, social,
and cognitive) that can extend the reach and effectiveness of climate literacy
efforts.
We also have an Education
Research and Evaluation session at AGU.
ED014: Climate Literacy: Models,
Impacts, and Best Practices from Research and Evaluation
Session ID#: 8534
Session Description:
Attention to climate change
has increased in the media and politics. What has been successful in communicating
climate science to different audiences? We welcome papers on successful
models that have had an impact and the best practices used in them. We
also welcome papers that summarize the findings of evaluation studies on
climate change education projects, or that explore practices and theories
of evaluation in the context of climate literacy.
Thanks
Tamara
