EXISTING COURSE OR ACTIVITY. 3: DEVELOP A RUBRIC OR AN ACTION PLAN DEVELOP A RUBRIC OR AN ACTION PLAN SEE THE ACTION PLAN TEMPLATE LINK BELOW. MAKE YOUR PLAN AS COMPLETE AS POSSIBLE. FREELY CONSULT WITH OTHERS ABOUT HOW REALISTIC AND FEASIBLE IT IS IN ALL AREAS. ALSO, ASK YOURSELF THESE TWO QUESTIONS: WILL MY PLAN DO WHAT IT CLAIMS TO DO? (EFFACACY) AND IS MY PLAN EFFECTIVE? (POTENCY). ALSO BELOW, SEE THE LINKS ON RUBRICS. THERE ARE ALSO LINKS TO CONCEPT MAPS
WHAT IS STEWARDSHIP? WHAT IS STEWARDSHIP? Stewardship is a theological belief that humans are responsible for the world, and should take care of it. So the acceptance of responsibility leads to the action(s) of care-taking. thinking attitudes behaviors conditions
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP Refers to responsible use and protection of the natural environment through conservation and sustainable practices. Conservation is the sustainable use and management of a natural resource by using that resource at a rate slower than its replacement rate. Resilience-Based Ecosystem Stewardship emphasizes resilience as a basic feature of the changing world as well as ecosystems that provide a suite of ecosystem services rather than a single source, and stewardship that recognizes resource managers as an integral part of the systems they manage. Resilience refers to the ability of a system to absorb disturbance and still maintain its basic function.
ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP ENVIRONMENTAL STEWARDSHIP Three categories of environmental stewards: doers donors Doers go out and help the cause by taking action. Donors are people that financially help the cause through fundraising and monetary donations. Practitioners work on a day to day basis to steer government agencies, scientists, stakeholder groups, or or any other group towards stewardship outcomes. practitioners Increasing Capacity for Stewardship of Oceans and Coasts, p.30
WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO DO? WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO DO? PERPETUATE PERPETUATE ENVIRONMENTAL CITIZENSHIP ENVIRONMENTAL CITIZENSHIP THROUGH EXPOSURE, EDUCATION, AND TRAINING. THROUGH EXPOSURE, EDUCATION, AND TRAINING. Earth Stewardship requires a new ethic of environmental citizenship on the part of individuals, businesses, & governments. This must be based on a clear understanding of the consequences, tradeoffs, and opportunities associated with action choices that influence the trajectory of our planet This in turn requires effective communication of issues & opportunities and improved alignment of incentives with those social norms that foster sustainable behavior. - Ecological Society of America
WHY SHOULD I WHY SHOULD I (OR ANYONE ELSE) (OR ANYONE ELSE) CARE? CARE? Self-Preservation & Self Perpetuation (survival, well-being, longevity, and the stability & enhancement of one s quality of life) Enlightened Self-Interest (acting to further the interests of others ultimately serve my own self-interests) An appreciation for the need & the value of the Commons. The High Cost to be Paid for Apathy & Unsustainable Behavior / Conditions
GUILDING PRINCIPLES GUILDING PRINCIPLES SUSTAINABLE ACTIONS SUSTAINABLE ACTIONS AND STRATEGIES FOR FOR AND STRATEGIES IS IT LIFE-AFFIRMING? IS IT JUST (BALANCED AND HARMONIOUS)? IS IT FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF THE INDIVIDUAL, THE GROUP, AND THE PERPETUATION OF THE GROUP? (PRINCIPLES OVER PREFERENCES) HAVE I CONSIDERED THE PURPOSE, FUNCTION, & MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM, OPERATION, ENTITY OR OBJECT?
What defines the nature of the relationship between humans & the natural environment? Dependency Adaptation Modification The failure to embrace these three manifestations of reality, especially the one of dependency, makes the appreciation and perpetuation of Earth Stewardship nearly impossible.
WHAT IS THE QUALITY OF YOUR THE QUALITY OF YOUR EXCHANGE EXCHANGE WITH THE ENVIRONMENT? There are three main types of relationships between living things in Nature. As human beings, you and I also operate by these same laws of Nature. COMMENSAL RELATIONSHIPS (benefit / nothing) SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIPS (benefit / benefit) PARASITIC RELATIONSHIPS (benefit / harm)
BALANCE & BALANCE & THE IMMUNE SYSTEM OF EARTH THE IMMUNE SYSTEM OF EARTH Balance is a stable condition created by the cancellation of negative forces with equal opposing, positive forces. Balance is the state of equilibrium, harmony. Balance is the preferred state in Nature, humans, and the Universe. Equilibrium (Balance) is mandatory to the life of any system. The Earth is able to execute in its movements, perform its functions, and fulfill its purpose - because it is able remain vibrant. Remaining vibrant is contingent its immune system is able to function. Immune system viability requires a critical degree of equilibrium , or balance within its complex systems.

THE INTENTIONAL CREATION OF NEW HABITS (as a commitment to self-improvement and an opportunity to set a better example to others.) TRANSFORMATION AND BALANCE (as a recognition that growth is life-affirming & balance is the preferred state in nature & the cosmos.) COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT (as an obligation to put into practice our understanding that the collective and the continuum makes our social and moral development possible.) TO RESOURCES

EFFECTIVE TEACHING INCLUDES EFFECTIVE TEACHING INCLUDES COMMITTING TO EFFICACY AND POTENCY IN WHAT YOU HAVE DESIGNED AND WHAT YOU DELIVER. WORKING TO GET PEOPLE TO THE NEXT STEP AS OPPOSED TO DEMANDING THEY UNDERSTAND THE WHOLE PICTURE. UTILIZING THE POWER OF ENLIGHTENED SELF INTEREST. IMAGINE BEING ASKED THE QUESTION: WHY SHOULD I CARE? TAPPING INTO THE THREE INTERDEPENDENT LEVELS OF HUMAN BEINGS: THOUGHT, DESIRE, AND ACTION. Encouraging THOUGHTS that move others into CLARITY (knowledge / wisdom) Encouraging DESIRES that move others into LOVE OF LIFE (life-affirming, and good producing) Encouraging BEHAVIORS that lead others into ACTS OF SERVICE (for others & self)
PART OF OUR CHALLENGES CHALLENGES AS TEACHERS IS TO TAKE STUDENTS FROM WHAT THEY SEE INTO WHAT THEY DON T SEE, SHOW THEM IT S THERE TAKE THEM FROM THE KNOWN TO UNKNOWN. AS TEACHERS WE CAN USE ALL THREE WAYS OF LEARNING DETERMINE WHERE YOUR STUDENTS ARE IN ORDER TO GET THEM TO THE NEXT STEP. IT IS NOT A REASONABLE EXPECTATION FOR US TO BELIEVE STUDENTS WILL SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE RIGHT WAY JUST BECAUSE YOU AND I HAVE THE ABILITY TO SEE IT, AND CAN PAINT THE PICTURE FOR THEM. WE OFTEN HAVE THE ABILITY, IF NOT THE NEED, TO TAP INTO A STUDENT S INDIVIDUAL VALUE SYSTEM TO SPARK THEIR MOVITATION TO LEARN.
THE THREE WAYS PEOPLE LEARN THE THREE WAYS PEOPLE LEARN Inference It stands to reason that a stronger healthier planet is a better place to inhabit. More stable ecosystems are more secure. Also, more predictable planetary dynamics makes the Earth a more secure home for us. More stability and equilibrium means more bounty from, and less volatility in, Nature. More stability & increased equilibrium translates into safer and potentially more vibrant & stable human built environments.
THE THREE WAYS PEOPLE THE THREE WAYS PEOPLE LEARN ObservationI have seen the benefits of reduced incidents of life-threatening & dangerous natural conditions lost of life and property over time since our initiatives to help restore the balance in nature and minimize waste and pollution. Experience I have personally benefitted from acts of environmental stewardship. My engagement has provided me (emotional, physical, spiritual) rewards. And I attribute these rewards to improved conditions in the Nature (and the built environment) due to environmental stewardship. LEARN (CONT D)
ENGAGEMENT ENGAGEMENT THE KEY TO SUCCESS THE KEY TO SUCCESS CONSIDER IMPROVING ENGAGEMENT BY: SHARING KNOWLEDGE AS SKILLS AND SKILLS AS KNOWLEDGE. TURNING YOUR STUDENTS INTO TEACHERS. (WHAT CAN THEY TEACH YOU IN EXCHANGE FOR WHAT YOU ARE ASKING THEM TO LEARN FROM YOU?) TEACHING ROOT KNOWLEDGE. (WHAT ARE THE BASIC ASSUMPTIONS, DEFINITIONS, AND FOUNDATIONS AT THE CORE OF WHAT YOU ARE ASKING YOUR STUDENTS TO LEARN? TAKE YOUR STUDENTS TO IT.) ASKING. ASK THEM FOR HELP AND COOPERATION. (CAN YOU BE THEIR TEACHER IF THEY DO NOT WANT TO YOUR STUDENT LEARNERS?)
