In response to the recent decline in pollinator populations, MetroParks would like to update its current insect programming to include information about the pollinator decline. This report summarizes the research and methods I used to provide MetroParks with a new education program that teaches the importance of pollinators as part of a healthy ecosystem. After examining the current status of pollinator populations, I studied how to design an effective education program that incorporates Ohio Science Education Standards. Activities were selected to create a lesson plan structured around the Biological Science Curriculum Study’s <i>5E Instructional Model</i>. The resulting <i>BEE Program</i> teaches students about what pollinators are, why they are important to our ecosystem, and ways humans can help their declining populations. 2017-04-27 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493294224961657 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1493294224961657 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
