Teaching about Bird Life

Tuesday, August 11 at 4pm Pacific / 7pm Eastern Time

Join us for this FREE inspiring and practical virtual workshop to learn how we can teach about birds using a variety of tools, techniques, and technology.

Birds can be found in all learning environments, rural or urban. Join our panel of knowledgeable presenters who will share resources, both analogue and digital, for learning about birds in formal or informal education spaces. This workshop will also highlight the work of Joseph Pitawanakwat, Andrés Jiménez and Junaid Khan to support the regathering and the education of Anishinaabe bird names and significant Indigenous bird knowledge. Included in this are their Anishinaabe Bird Names Nature Guide and Anishinaabe Winter Bird Names Nature Guide.

Presented by: Julie Read, Junaid Shahzad Khan, and Marisa Saelzler
