Wisconsin Environmental Science Course Framework
Purpose of this Framework
The purpose of having an environmental science course framework is to provide a consistent foundation upon which environmental science courses in Wisconsin can be developed. Topics in the framework are prioritized to help in planning courses of varied length. The framework is not intended to serve as a curriculum.

The framework will aid new teachers in implementing environmental science courses, provide veteran environmental science teachers with new ideas, and facilitate the sharing of ideas and resources between educators. Use the accompanying digital resource library to share resources used to teach each topic including activities, labs, assessments, videos, web sites, guest speakers, field trips, etc.

The framework is a dynamic document that will evolve and be revised to reflect new developments in the science and environmental communities, trends in education, and teacher needs.
