cp-Field Course
in Conservation Biology & Global Health:
At the Human-Environment Interface
Overview: The “CollegePrep-Field Course in
Conservation Biology & Global Health: At the
Human-Environment Interface” is a new outreach program
(first conducted in 2012), that involves of an intensive
3-day “mini” field course targeting middle/high school
students (grades 7-12). The course is modeled after the
successful university-level field courses and consists of
daily lectures and related field and lab exercises. The
material is presented at an advanced (college-prep) level to
give the students a feel for what college-level lectures are
like. By exposing the students to college-level material, we
hope dispel any myths about what a college course is like
and in turn give them the confidence to pursue
post-secondary education in the sciences. The cp-field
courses are currently being conducted in partnership with
Native American schools. |
