http://schema.org/description
- "I utilized a number of both secondary and primary sources in my research, the latter comprising personal interviews and educational material from the profiled sites. After examining the experiences -- both good and bad -- of the participant sites and their respective programs, I conclude that environmental programming is a viable plan of action for historic sites. The implementation of these programs, however, will be most effective when accompanied by a passionate and well-versed staff, a clearly articulated perspective, and clear idea of the desired audience."
- "My research is divided into three chapters, each detailing a specific type of environmental education -- historic foodways, renewable energy, and land conservation and stewardship. Two case studies from museums or sites undertaking the particular type of outreach are the basis of each chapter. After relating the experiences of each site, I will highlight in each chapter a necessary element of successful historical-environmental education programs: that is, those qualities or features necessary to create and execute relevant and effective environmental programming."
- "This thesis examines how and why historic sites are taking advantage of the green movement through educational programming and outreach. I argue that this approach is mutually beneficial to both historical and environmental topics. Historic sites, often seen as dry and far-removed, are infused with a new relevance in their communities, while scientific data is given a human context and dimension."
