Are you a teacher new to place-based education (PBE)? Maybe you have implemented PBE in your classroom and want to learn more?

The institute this year will lead you through the six elements of a PBE project so you can implement an awesome experience back at your school. Groundswell is offering this workshop to educators which includes expert facilitation, classroom material give-aways, and provided meals each day for participants (a value of $725 per attendee). Summer institute is offered at no cost to the educator.
