The Story of Stuff with Annie Leonard

Found this video interesting and because I was not sure about the copyright, I am attaching a link to this forum and hoping to generate some conversation. Please include any initiatives that your schools are taking to teach students about the environment, sustainability and or global issues affecting our own world. Although it strikes a chord on many levels, I think it's main purpose is to get us to think about "all our stufff" and its impact on the Earth.

Bill,

Does your environmental group run as part of a STEM program? I would be interested in connecting your students with some of my students. We are thinking of running a "design an energy effective solution" to ... We are still a work in progress but the connection may fit.

Bill, what types of remote technologies are you using? I could open up a group for connecting schools to each other on this site. I'll do that and invite you in. Others can join as well.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource

Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and

other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching

practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
