This web site will not only include stories gathered from the shores of the Great Lakes, but will also provide cirriculum materials, instructional strategies, assessment tools, maps, links to other relevant web sites, as well as other educational resources. We are all caught in cross currents. The pace of change is accelerating. Families are stressed. Businesses are booming.
Governments struggle to achieve consensus on change.
Technology aggravates the lag between information and understanding. Schools are barometers of change. They are the best institutions we have for sorting out the trends of change. Schools have the time, talent and technology to make a difference in the lives of kids and communities. As future generations inevitably face environmental challenges, sustainable progress will only thrive if it engages students in joyful and creative action.
