EDUTAINMENT

Why I Participate

OUR PLANET IS IN PERIL.... THE ECONOMY IS FAILING... STUDENTS ARE DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOLS... WE MUST IMPROVE SCHOOLS via NEW METHODS -- Our schools are in trouble...with increasing drop-out rates, low achievement scores, and many other problems. NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND seems to have left far too many children and schools in the rear. STUDIES HAVE SHOWN that using techniques...such as "collaborative learning processes" -- and other games, exercises & activities are very effective. Our future is in the hands of those who gain knowledge and training. We cannot continue in the same old out-dated ways in our schools...in many cases boring the students to tears !!! WE MUST CREATE MORE ENJOYABLE PRESENTATIONS...other than the traditional lecturing. LEARNING IS FUN-DA-MENTAL. We offer books and other materials to help teachers, coaches, youth leaders, etc. to spice up classrooms and teaching. The more we can be effective in teaching, the less students will want to drop out...the more they will achieve.

About Me

I am an educator, writer and business woman. I am an advocate for improving education, teaching about Nature, protecting the environment -- and helping the less fortunate.

My Interest

EDUTAINMENT is a concept that spices up lesson presentations, makes school more interesting and enjoyable...and improves achievement. I PRODUCED a 75-min. documentary-- "PLANETARY PREDICAMENT" -- which is available (via amazon.com) -- which includes several exhibits of ways to spice up our classes and improve achievement.
