EFCA is a natural gem amid farmland whose goal is to educate people of all ages about today’s environmental issues. In order to accomplish this, EFCA needed an accurate map that is easy to navigate as well as interpretive signage. This interdisciplinary practicum connects Ohio’s Revised Science Content Standards with art by utilizing original artwork created with pen and colored pencil and gives ideas for making connections to other subjects such as History, English, and Math as well as Girl and Boy Scout badge requirements. To encourage visitors from the general public to visit, the signs discuss topics relevant to each location at EFCA as well as Ohio and contain whimsical imagery that is visually stimulating and includes questions that promote inquiry and further study. 2014-08-29 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1409266895 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1409266895 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
