Eco Teaching Resources, LLC

I founded Eco Teaching Resources in 2009.

Change How You Teach: Our company, Eco Teaching Resources, LLC, develops and supplies hyper-local field guides for cities, camps, school districts, and more. We provide customizable, accurate, alternative teaching materials that create heightened learning environments and enhance how people interact with nature.

Our vision is a community where people interact with one another, observing the natural world around them. To bring this vision into reality, we build a network of people who focus their educational pursuits, attention and knowledge to their local ecological address. The developed materials of Eco Teaching Resources build around the ideas of providing enhanced, hyper-local teaching materials that will create enriched learning environments to promote a deeper sense of spatial connectivity.

We value the visions of modern educators and their ability to create enriched learning experiences, which change the way people understand and interpret their natural environment. We value the opportunities to build our company’s culture by providing the most environmentally and ecologically friendly experiences and products within our educational field.

We Supply the Resources, You Supply the Creativity: Our product, Nature’s Window, puts the power of creating hyper-local, focused field guides in your hands. You control what they include, how they look and how many you print. We are grounded in the vision of supporting local, relevant teaching and educational opportunities.

Nature’s Window, can increase ecological literacy as well as improve critical thinking and spatial orientation skills. It connects people with their immediate environment and encourages interaction with their natural world. Using hyper local materials with young people can develop their connection to community and foster active active citizenship.

This effective, revolutionary template tool can be used to create imaginative, interactive field guides for any discipline. They have been used extensively by teachers in the classroom as a 21st century alternative to the flashcard (especially effective in ESL and foreign language classrooms). Nature’s Window templates are ideal for self paced exploration through community and botanical gardens, historical buildings and sites, art and natural history museums, state and national parks, urban walking tours, and in conjunction with eco and agritourism.  Create custom scavenger hunts for events or organizations . Once you’ve experienced the ease and power of creating your own field guides, you will be hooked on using them over and over again.

Our mission is to support and provide resources for a community where educators and naturalists can create, design, and build educational guides that make sense to their style of teaching; and to create materials for students within that community to foster a deeper understanding of and connection with their natural world.  Learn more about us and how we can help you change the way you teach @ Eco Teaching Resources
