Supplement to the Third Report to the Governor and Legislature on Conservation Education.
New York State Temporary Commission on Youth Education in Conservation, Albany.
During 1972-1973, the Commission on Youth Education in Environmental Conservation for the State of New York sponsored a series of six regional conferences. They were designed to explore needs and solutions in environmental education at the regional level, demonstrate the concept of total community involvement in environmental education, and develop some preliminary models for its implementation. This volume contains the full reports of these conferences as created collaboratively by the regional participants and the Commission staff. It provides comprehensive evidence both of the organization and functioning of these meetings and the outcomes they produced. Conferences were titled: Seminars for Regional Resource Development--Adirondack Region; Education for Environmental Action Conference--Albany; A Report on Regional Environmental Education and a Plan for Its Future in Central New York; A View Toward Community-Wide Environmental Education for the Genesee/Finger Lakes Region; New York Forum on Funding for Environmental Education; and Southern Tier Central Regional Plan for Environmental Education. A regional design was utilized because the variety of physical environments and social institutions in the state lead to varying degrees of need and, thus, discourage statewide application of highly specific programs. A related document is SE 016 252, the Commission's main report. (BL)
