Professional Development Workshop Series
Gain the knowledge and confidence to integrate environmental education into your classroom or programs, no matter what audience or setting you work with! Our educator professional development series will help you engage learners of all ages in hands-on, place-based environmental education.
RIEEA is pleased to announce in 2024 we will be hosting Creative Practices for Environmental Learning, a workshop series exploring the intersection of art, education, and the environment!
Each workshop is collaborative, co-facilitated by a Rhode Island artist and a Rhode Island environmental educator. Together, the facilitators will share different approaches to integrating the creative arts into a nature-oriented classroom or program.
Formal and nonformal educators and advocates are invited to attend.
