What I'm hoping to learn from EcoEd
 * Learning more about methods used to teach children
 * Designing curriculum
 * How to cultivate environmental, media, and scientific literacy
 * Creative writing; how that can help children to learn more about the environment and how a creative writing relay will help cultivate this

A bit about me
 * I was homeschooled grades K-12, so I learned a bit more about environmental issues than I probably would have had I gone to public school
 * I am currently a sophomore Sustainability Studies major
 * I enjoy working with children (and people younger than me in general; I am hoping to implement a Vasudha mentoring program during the next couple years)
 * I started writing several stories during high school that I now realize have environmental themes

Projects
 * EcoEd Writing Relay Chapter 1
 * Existing Module Reviews
 * EcoEd Module Ideas
