Organizations Arizona Association for Environmental Education Description: AAEE is a nonprofit organization working to enhance the quality of environmental education in Arizona and to advance professionalism among all who are involved with environmental education, whatever the topic or setting. Association for Environmental and Outdoor Education Description: AEOE is dedicated to the education of children and to helping them increase their awareness and understanding of their natural environment. This organization believes in the potential of education to help children perceive and understand environmental principles and problems. We encourage carefully planned and sustained programs of formal and informal education. By exploring personal values and providing involvement based on student perceptions, interests and competence, we seek the development of a personal ethic appropriate to the enhancement of environmental quality. To this end, we continuously support educators in their quest for the skills, attitudes and materials so essential to help learners know and care about their environment. North American Association for Environmental Education Description: NAAEE is a network of professionals, students, and volunteers working in the field of environmental education throughout North America and in over 55 countries around the world. Since 1971, the Association has promoted environmental education and supported the work of environmental educators. There are many environmental interest groups, and many organizations dedicated to improving education. NAAEE uniquely combines and integrates both of these perspectives, and takes a cooperative, nonconfrontational, scientifically-balanced approach to promoting education about environmental issues. |
