Ferry Beach Ecology School (FBES) is a non-profit educational organization dedicated to providing ecological education to 3rd-8th grade classes. Our interdisciplinary ecology curriculum focuses on teaching hands-on lessons in basic ecology by using the outdoors as a classroom a classroom where learning occurs through exploration, scientific investigation, discovery and sensory awareness. FBES naturalists take students to a variety of ecosystems residential programs , as well as day programs and outreach programs to public and private schools. Why Do Classes Come to Ferry Beach? A trip to FBES can be a once in a lifetime opportunity for students to explore and learn about ecosystems such as tidepools, beaches, dunes, salt marshes and coastal forests- places that many of them may never have seen before. The experience of being away from home and learning to live with and get along with others is also invaluable. School teachers from all over New England use this experience as an integral part of their science curriculum. Pre-visit and post-visit activity manuals as well as free teacher training during your visit to Ferry Beach Ecology School help to ensure that the week can be incorporated into the regular school year.

GENERAL ECOLOGY an introduction Index GENERAL ECOLOGY- basics and definitions The Transfer of Energy Biochemical Cycles Community Structure ... Ecological Control and Regualtion If asked what " Ecology " is, most non-scientists may respond with 'environmental protection' or 'the nature of things'. An ecologist is often viewed as a radical environmental "Green Peace" activist. Although environmental concerns are a big part of ecology, and most ecologists want to protect the natural environment, ecology is actually something entirely different. ECOLOGY - The science that treats the spectrum of interrelationships existing between organisms and their environment and among groups of organisms. Ecology is the science that is concerned with how individual organisms and populations of organisms live together and with their environmental surroundings. The reason environmentalism and ecology get mixed up in the media is that the scientific basis of an endangered species problems come from studies ecologists have conducted determining the ecological relationship between the species and its deteriorating environmental conditions. The environmentalists use these studies as the backbone for reasons to protect and preserve our natural environments. GENERAL ECOLOGY- basics and definitions Basics of ecological understanding.

Seized by Agreement, Swamped by Understanding Social Ecology Education and Research David Russell History of an educational innovation What is social ecology? Social ecology in action The educational programs ... References History of an educational innovation The roots of social ecology are embedded in the fertile soil that was the Hawkesbury Diploma in Rural Extension, first offered in 1970, at what was then known as Hawkesbury Agricultural College and now the University of Western Sydney. The program changed its title to Graduate Diploma in Extension in 1974, and again in 1982, to Graduate Diploma in Social Communication. During this period the key features of the program remained the same: it was always highly experiential; it overtly fostered the learner's growth in self esteem; and it espoused the goal of measuring learning against a yardstick of social relevance. The decision to change the title yet again was greatly influenced by the writings of people like Gregory Bateson (1972), Anthony Wilden (1980) and Murray Bookchin (1982). The common ground that these authors were exploring was the co-evolution of any system and its environment. Not only do the players evolve; but so do the patterns of relationships that link them and so does the context in which these players act. Another connecting theme was the pursuit of an improved quality of relating - people to people and people to their natural environment. Yet another was the dropping of metaphors of power, hierarchy, input and output, and substituting metaphors of complementarity, fit, pattern, aesthetics and elegance. The term

There are more details on the various options lower down in this page Use the menu on the left to go to Postgraduate Education The concept of Sustainable Development has its origins round about 1990, being introduced mainly by a group of international academics. The ideology includes concern for the environment but has a much wider remit. It is much more materialistic and that is no bad thing. Apart from the environment the other areas of focus are threefold . They are: Making humanitarian social progress Making efficient use of natural resources and Maintaining high levels of economic growth and employment We would be happy to include relevant SD courses information when there is sufficient interest.

Ecology Education Fellowship Program "I came to the Fellowship program without very articulated goals, but with a strong sense that I wanted to contribute to ecology education. I knew specifically that I wanted to hone my teaching skills and gain confidence in expressing myself and engaging children and adults in ecology. When I reflect on all the children I’ve had the pleasure to teach (and learn from), how my ideas have developed and changed, and how optimistic and excited I am about the challenge of making ecology useful and understandable for everyone, I realize that my time here has been incredibly influential." ­- 2001 - 2002 Ecology Education Fellow The Ecology Education Fellowship Program , begun in 1996, gives new educators a chance to develop their ecology teaching skills. Ecology Education Fellows are AmeriCorps members with the Youth Resource Development Corporation Building Bridges AmeriCorps Program or the Student Conservation Association Hudson Valley Program and serve terms that vary in length from three months to two years. Fellows have usually completed their undergraduate degrees in science or education, though some are currently enrolled in school and receive undergraduate or graduate credit for their Fellowship work. Fellows receive a stipend and education award. They participate in all aspects of the IES Ecology Field Programs and Ecology Day Camps , teaching students, developing curricula, evaluating programs and producing periodic ecology newsletters highlighting the work of K-12 students. Each Fellow develops a portfolio documenting work and growth and completes an independent project.

Topics Covered Deep Ecology: Human beings are one of many species, everything is interconnected, and sustainability should replace economic growth as our long-term goal. How do these underlying assumptions differ from current assumptions of our society? The Gaia Hypothesis: In some ways, the earth functions like a living organism, reflecting the interdependence of life and earth's compensating mechanisms. How do the biological and physical worlds interact to create a self-regulating process? Spirituality and the Earth: Some environmentalists and theologians emphasize a spiritual dimension in our relationship with the earth. Some believe spirituality is the key to finding motivation to live on a sustainable basis with other species and the earth's finite resources.

Creek restoration and kids ecology education by Alice Martinez an Diego City Council members Valerie Stallings and Byron Wear helped kick off a new effort to restore Rose Creek in Pacific Beach. The project, which began on June 26, is being funded with $40,000 in Community Development Block Grant monies allocated by Stallings and Wear. The Nature School, a non-profit organization that focuses on urban creek restoration and watershed education opportunities for kids, applied for the grant money and is overseeing the project. Nature School staff have utilized volunteers from the National Civilian Community Corps, Girl and Boy Scouts, neighborhood children and community activists to help with the project. CREEK is interdisciplinary, using multimedia presentation and artful expression to challenge students' creative ability in conceiving solutions for environmental protection. Beyond traditional education, Project CREEK offers guest visits, field study, demonstrations, school assemblies, on-site workshops and town hall meetings to engage K12 and college students, parents, educators, community leaders and policy makers as participants in real-life learning as shareholders in managing community resources. There are currently two opportunities to restore urban wetlands. The first is on Mission Bay, America's largest aquatic park, which is jeopardized by urban run-off via its major tributary, Rose Creek. The second is the San Diego River, west of the trolley overpass. By cleaning up the coastal portion of Rose Creek and the San Diego River and restoring their habitats, open spaces will be preserved for numerous community benefits.
