TPW TV: Educating the Educators
This is Passport to Texas
On any given Saturday, someone in Texas is probably getting trained in Project Wild. Kiki Corey oversees the program for Texas Parks and Wildlife.
Project WILD is professional development for educators to help them teach about wildlife and wildlife issues.
Susan Campbell, Education Coordinator for the San Antonio Natural area, says Project WILD isn’t jut about learning the science of nature.
[Susan] You can also teach literacy, you can teach mathematics, you can teach social studies.
[Kiki] The Project WILD activities are experience-based. Regardless of the level of your students, everyone in the class will have shared the same experience with the content and then the teacher has something to work from.
See Project WILD in action on the TPW TV series.
