Wisconsin Environmental Science Course Framework
Purpose of the Framework
Development Process
Environmental science is a growing area of study with new courses being developed each year. The Wisconsin Center for Environmental Education has received an increasing number of requests for an environmental science course framework and associated resources. This document was created in response to those requests.

This framework was developed with statewide input from many individuals. A core group of veteran secondary level environmental science teachers along with the Wisconsin Environmental Science Teacher Network Coordinator created the initial framework outline. Multiple environmental science resources were referenced throughout the creation

Once complete, the framework document was distributed to thirty five reviewers including environmental science teachers, natural resource professionals, environmental education specialists, and university level environmental science professors and pre-service instructors.

A subset of the reviewers examined the compiled comments and determined necessary changes. A final team of educators refined the document to its current form. The framework is dynamic and will be modified to reflect changes as needed.
