2024 Innovative Practices Conference (IPC)

In an age where technology permeates every aspect of our lives, its influence on education, particularly in the realm of environmental and agricultural studies, cannot be overlooked. From Bytes to Biodiversity: Technology's Role in Environmental Education explores the dynamic relationship between technology and environmental education.

In this presentation, we will explore the future of environmental education through the lens of the ever changing digital landscape. We will look at how agriculture can be studied and used as a teaching tool in the classroom. From virtual field trips that transport students to distant ecosystems to applications that can be used in your own schoolyard we will cover a number of ways in which technology is redefining how we understand and engage with our natural world.
