Subject: [highedpublicity] Framework for Assessing Environmental Literacy
Release of a Framework for Assessing Environmental Literacy -- In-person and Online --
On December 1, join NAAEE for the roll-out of "A Framework for Assessing Environmental Literacy" at the National Press Club, Washington, DC, and live via the Internet.
This new framework for assessing environmental literacy was developed with experts from the fields of environmental education, social studies education, and science education, plus related policy and social science fields. The development team will be joined by leaders from large-scale national and international assessments to discuss how to define and assess environmental literacy. The NAAEE spearheaded this project with support from the National Science Foundation (NSF), and is partnering with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation (NMSF) to release the framework.
Mark your calendars for Thursday, December 1, 2011, 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time
