Class Discussion

The in class discussion on September 25, 2012 was very interesting. The discussion was about how where one receives education affects the individual's life. Where people go to school can greatly impact their quality of education and how people view them. Some schools are known as party schools while other schools are known to have graduates that are the best of the best. But everybody is not trying to go to these schools. The class also talked about Richard Kahn, who wrote an article about how education is being used to shape the environmental movement. Kahn explained how people have been able to increase their knowledge about environmental issues and how they strive to improve their ways. In addition, he introduced the idea of ecoliteracy where people can relate their culture to the environmental issues. All in all it was a nice class discussion.
