Three environmental living curriculum models

This project is concerned with Environmental Living as one contemporary aspect of Outdoor Education. A definition of Environmental Living is provided in order to provide the reader with a common base of understanding. Several concurrent approaches to Environmental Living projects are presented with emphasis on the role of the National Park Service in Environmental Living. Three complete Environmental Living curriculum models are presented. Indian Camp presents a study of selected aspects of Native Californians' material culture. Rancho Days presents a study of selected aspects of Spanish/ Mexican material culture in California. Pioneer Camp presents a study of selected aspects of European "pioneers' " material culture in California. All three studies are designed for teacher use on local school sites.
