Project Summary During the next two years the Oklahoma team is continuing to develop a state master plan for EE in their state. A major focus of their efforts is gathering input from non-traditional audiences that are part of the broader community. Some of their activities will include quarterly meetings with these diverse audiences to draft a master plan, a leadership clinic to help underserved audiences develop an action plan tailored to their needs and the presentation of the completed plan at several state-wide conferences. |

Oklahoma Designs Communication Tools for State Teams The Oklahoma Consortium for Environmental Literacy (OKCEL) has created web-based communication tools to keep their volunteers connected between meetings. OKCEL designed chat rooms and bulletin boards on their website (www.okcel.org) for each of their focus groups that were developed as part of their spring Leadership Clinic. At the June Leadership Clinic four teams were developed to focus on Outreach, Resources, Public Relations, and Sustaining and Implementing. These teams scheduled times to �chat� about their progress in between meeting dates, which are held every other month. Photos from their June Leadership Clinic are also available at their website. To view the bulletin boards, visit www.okcel.org. For more information: OK Project Manager Kathy Draper at 405-314-8629 or kathygdraper@msn.com. Oklahoma EETAP Team Undergoes Name Change Oklahoma's Consortium has recently changed its name from the OK Consortium for Environmental Education to the OK Consortium for Environmental Literacy (www.OKCEL.org). The Advisory Board made the name change decision to help the general public understand their mission is much broader than K-12, which is a common misconception associated with environmental education. OKCEL presented its second Leadership Clinic June 24-25. Volunteers from throughout the state came together to begin the intense work of writing goals and action plans for their Environmental Literacy Master Plan. For more information: Kathy Draper, OK EETAP Project Manager at (405) 314-8629 or kathygdraper@msn.com.
