Community Education is where students are empowered to educate their community on local issues. Students demonstrate their research on the issues by looking at these 4 parts to an environmental issue:

• historical background
• causes
• effects
• solutions

Then, students create ways in which they can teach their local community about the issue(s).

To see some of these Community Education projects, visit these sites:
