Great Lakes Place-Based Education Institute Interest Form
The Great Lakes Place-Based Education (PBE) Institute is designed to benefit classroom teachers throughout the Great Lakes basin who are new to place-based teaching and student learning. The purpose of the institute is to help teachers develop their understanding of: 
  • the core principles of place-based education,
  • associated benefits and research-based findings,
  • cross-curricular standards alignment opportunities,
  • best practices and implementation strategies, and
  • the elements of GLSI’s Place-Based Stewardship Education model.

Participants will also gain exposure to connections between place-based education and Great Lakes ecosystems and related issues by exploring resources from NOAA’s Great Lakes B-WET Meaningful Watershed Education Experience framework and the Center for Great Lakes Literacy Principles.

By the end of the institute, participants will have the skills and tools necessary to take their next steps in using place as a context for learning. 

The Institute takes place across six Zoom-based sessions, so you can attend from anywhere. 

                    The next Great Lakes PBE Institute will be held in the fall of 2025

                            Registration for the institute will open on July 28, 2025.
