Interdisciplinary Education in Earth Sciences and Sustainability
Increasingly, educational scholars are observing the distinctive cognitive value in classroom projects that cross disciplinary boundaries and drive students to employ multiple learning strategies in completing academic tasks. This denotes the ambition to render curricular procedure and academic content according to the broader needs that must be fulfilled as one moves forward on one's academic journey. Accordingly, the approach taken to academics in this project proposal will center on the refinement of more generally applicable skill sets such as interpersonal communication, team orientation and learning through practical usage of emergent skills in science and mathematics disciplines. This approach will be modeled in accordance with the Common Core State Standards authored by the State of New York.
The project designed here would place students in groups, designated each group to study and create a presentation on a specific ecosystem. Possible selections would include the and introductory education in ecology. This objective is supplemented by two interdisciplinary objectives. The first of these is instruction in critical learning, communicating and problem-solving skills, including reading, writing, historical reflection and cultural reflection. The second of these is instruction in citizenship, with a focus on environmentalism, conservation and sustainability providing an overarching course focus and a directive for…

253). Based on their review of 20 existing education for sustainability initiatives, Ferreira and her associates identified three primary models that exist along a continuum from local to more broad-based approaches as follows: 1. Collaborative Resource Development and Adaptation model: This model seeks to bring about change through the development and adaptation of high quality curriculum and pedagogy resources. It does not usually seek to bring about change across a
individuals with the ability to understand their connection to the world around them is the fundamental characteristic of an effective environmental education. To do this successfully requires two important things: individuals that are inspired by and actively involved in the physical world around them; and institutions of learning that provide curricula delineating the individual's link to these natural systems and societies at large. The current environmental educational system in America,
