Lessons from a New Masters in Environmental Education

In the US, environmental education is not a formal part of the K-12 curriculum. Rather, in every city, there is an ecosystem of non-profits, museums and science centers that provide the crucial in-school, after-school and summer school programs engaging the "screen generation" in the fundamental ideas of ecological literacy.

In 2018, Bard's Graduate Programs in Sustainability launched a new Masters program for aspiring leaders in this critical work, centering a focus on expanding environmental education access to historically marginalized populations. Cultivating an intersectional analysis of ecology, equity, and justice, the Bard MEd program seeks to push the boundaries of inclusiveness in the environmental education field.

Join Bard Professors Scott Kellogg and Caroline Ramaley, as well as Kadijah Spence MED '21 and Ben Harris MED '24 to discuss the lessons learned from this new experiment in graduate education.
