Environmental and Climate Change Literacy Summit
Abstract: California is a leader in both climate policy and in educational policies that support environmental and climate-related education. To help prepare teachers to enact these instructional shifts in our state's frameworks and provide youth with the skills they are demanding, teacher educators must take a systematic and collaborative approach. This session will provide an update on the progress of the UC-CSU collaboration Environmental and Climate Change Literacy Project and Summit, known as ECCLPS. A steering committee and sub-committees focused on pre-service teachers, in-service professional learning, and curriculum have published a report and hosted a summit that brought together leaders and practitioners from across the PK to higher education fields. This presentation will highlight the many recommendations that have been made to public universities, state agencies, and others involved in teacher preparation.
