2022 Conservation Educator Academy
The Conservation Educator Academy is a professional development opportunity presented by the Indianapolis Zoo and Ball State University. Teachers from K-12 schools learn about conservation of wildlife and habitats, science practices, and strategies for teaching science as inquiry. Participants develop inquiry-based lesson plans that they use in the classroom and will share with the community.
