This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Garden Design, Set Goal - Analysis There is limited ag ed in K-12 regardless of national framework in science and standardized test questions geared to agriculture. Goals - 1. Design ag ed curriculum for grade five students 2. Make students aware of the importance of agriculture in social and global life 3. Create lifelong learners and conscious consumers ???? ????, Designing Learning Tasks - Example Students will be given the task of designing a profitable, natural garden appropriately placed on a dairy farm that will provide fruits and/or vegetables native to Pennsylvania to local markets. - What types of plants grow where and what resources are needed for them to grow? - How are different types of plants harvested and processed before getting to the stores? ???? EVALUATE A rubric will be provided to measure how well students addressed the challenges presented. They will be scored on how well they chose an appropriate location on the farm, utilized resources, selected produce to grow, explained the processes of preparation for sale, and identified how/where to sell their produce., Determine Objectives Students will understand where their food comes from, the processes involved in the production of their food, how climate, geography, and resources afffect production, and the economic and social processes involved in the distribution of finished products. ???? EVALUATE A rubric will be provided to measure how well students addressed the challenges presented. They will be scored on how well they chose an appropriate location on the farm, utilized resources, selected produce to grow, explained the processes of preparation for sale, and identified how/where to sell their produce., Develop Task - To demonstrate their understandings of objectives, students will have to explore the farm where their garden will be located using Google Earth, locate its resources (e.g. water, fuel, manure, etc.), and find the best place to build their garden. - They will have to know what types of plants can grow in that climate and geography, the appropriate place on the farm to build a garden in relation to the resources available, and how to prepare, package, ship, and sell their products at the market. Revise Pilot Implementation Implement activity in fifth grade class and determine geospatial skill level, problem solving skill level, and level of engagement., Pilot Implementation Implement activity in fifth grade class and determine geospatial skill level, problem solving skill level, and level of engagement. Can we implement this in all states? ????, Set Goal - Analysis There is limited ag ed in K-12 regardless of national framework in science and standardized test questions geared to agriculture.
