The program focuses on building both content knowledge and instructional capacity, ensuring educators feel prepared to facilitate meaningful climate learning in a variety of nonformal settings.Participants will deepen their understanding of climate change science while exploring Jersey-centric, hands-on, and outdoor lessons that connect local climate impacts to global systems. Through guided activities and model lessons, educators will experience strategies they can immediately adapt for use with their own audiences.The workshop also supports educators in aligning existing programs with New Jersey Climate Change Standards, helping them strengthen connections between informal learning experiences and formal education goals. Dedicated time for collaboration and discussion will allow participants to share ideas, refine lessons, and learn from peers across the state.By the end of the workshop, educators will leave with increased confidence, practical teaching tools, and a supportive professional network—empowered to engage learners in relevant, action-oriented climate change education.Tentative Schedule (Rain or shine)FRIDAY4:00 – 5:00pm – Arrive and settle in to cabins6:00 – 7:00pm – Dinner – please bring your own7:00 – 7:45pm – Paddle on Lake Wapalanne8:00pm – Campfire + StorytellingSATURDAY7:00 – 8:00am – Morning walk (optional)8:00 – 8:45am – Breakfast (provided by NJSOC)9:00 – 9:30am – Welcome and Introductions9:30 – 10:30am – The Basic Science of Climate Change10:30am-10:45am- Break10:45-11:30- The New Jersey Climate-Change Education Standards for Nonformal Educators11:45 – 12:45pm – Lunch (provided by NJSOC)1:00 – 2:15pm – Ephemeral Art &amp; Poetry of Climate Change2:30 – 3:45pm – NJ Wildlife: Using iNaturalist to Explore Climate Change Issues3:45 – 4:00pm –Workshop Summation &amp; Gratitudes4:00pm – DepartureWorkshop Details:This workshop is presented through a collaboration of the NJSOC and the Alliance for New Jersey Environmental Education with generous support from National Geographic and a private donor.This workshop is open to New Jersey nonformal educators (empoyed by zoos, nature centers, museums, community organizations, correctional facilities, etc.).
