Placed-based education seeks to bridge the gap that often exists between schools and the communities they serve. Linked to the efforts of civic, environmental, service learning, and workplace educators, it provides a way to integrate classroom learning into the everyday contexts of students’ lives. It also provides young people with a reason to invest their energy in academic tasks. This special event provides participants with the opportunity to learn more about the impact place-based education is having on schools regionally and nationally. It features a panel discussion on Thursday evening, followed by a series of presentations and conversations on Friday. Topics to be explored include principles and practices of place-based education, the potential of this approach to deepen students’ engagement in school, challenges and opportunities of implementation posed by the standards movement, the development of community partners, and funding possibilities.

This is a two part course in mycology with alternating lab and field sessions. The first two days, (Nov 11 & 12) are geared towards beginners and will focus on skills required to use identification keys to identify common fungi (including some edibles). A basic familiarity with compound microscopes is useful but not required. The following two days (Nov 13 & 14) are recommended for intermediate to advanced fungal students, though those taking the beginner session are encouraged to enroll in the intermediate session. The cirriculum will involve more keying, review of important field and lab characteristics and discussion of the local flora. Lab sessions will include a greater emphasis on microscopic characters and a familiarity with compound microscopes is required. Lectures on taxonomy and systematics will accompany both sections. We shall collect in the diverse Siskiyou slopes near Wagner Butte.
